I often at first hear hesitations from my customers, who before experiencing their first tour, sometimes wonder if this is the right format for them? Let's be frank, we live in a very individualistic society, and often the others are perceived as more of a pain than a joy, so why would you spend your vacation with perfect strangers?
There are actually extremely valid reasons not to approach the issue from that angle, and here is what i would like you to consider if what is written above resonates with you:
* THE "OTHERS" ARE PART OF THE STRENGTH OF GROUP TRAVEL
The others are what makes your life as pleasant as it may be every day. They are the ones baking your bread, flying your plane, designing the software that makes your days as productive and enjoyable as they are. In a trip they may also be those who help you absorb what you discover, enhance your experience by adding their perspective, their understanding, their comments, their joy.
My experience is that lasting friendships are born during my tours, because of what I write above.
* THE "OTHERS" ALLOW THE EXPERIENCE TO MATERIALIZE
My tours are only possible, from both financial and organizational reasons, with a critical mass of participants. Wine makers for instance, would typically only offer a tasting, and often for a charge, to a visiting couple, while for their importer they are willing to have a much more elaborate visit, that may even include a meal, and from the feedback I get, these are unparalleled experiences.
So the others are, with you, what allows the materialization of these out of the ordinary experiences we will share. It is a little bit as in the saying "divided we fail, united we conquer."
* EVERYBODY IN MY TOURS IS OF GOOD COMPANY
Just like you, everybody join my tours, with the best of intentions and ready to have fun and travel in an elegant fashion. Rest assured that I make sure that this does not change, the quality of what I deliver is what ensures everybody's appreciation.
Thank you for reading, and I hope that you will not hesitate now in joining us for an absolutely unique experience.
