Group touring is offering travellers a balance between organised activities and personal time, while also creating opportunities to make new friends.
The combination has proved popular with those who want the reassurance of travelling as part of a group without having every moment of a trip planned for them.
Shared activities provide the chance to experience a destination together, while time away from the itinerary allows travellers to pursue their own interests or simply relax.
That mix of companionship and independence is at the heart of the appeal, bringing a sense of conviviality to group travel without taking away the freedom to enjoy a holiday at an individual pace.
