Planning that Dream Vacay with Your Tribe? These Group Travel Tips are Here to Save Your Day

Travelling in big groups can mean different things to different people. For instance, at different times and according to different situations it can mean travelling with strangers, travelling with your buddies or at times exploring the world with your family.

However, travelling in big groups can also be a little stressful, as time and again, you may get into certain situations where you might see people fighting over some issue, there can be confusion over which hotel to book or with whom to share your room? Like this, the list of such minor and major complications related to group travel doesn’t seem to end. And while you are at your dream holiday destination, watching such things happen can be quite frustrating.

Thus, to ensure that you have a seamless journey, we have come up with a handy guide on travelling in big groups. So, without wasting any time, let’s get started.

#1. Planning is the Key

While on a group tour with your loved ones, the more you plan, the better your trip will be in every sense possible.

Needless to say, that you will be encountering some difficulties here and there, however, if you have chalked out your trip with precision beforehand, these difficulties won’t matter much in the long run.

So, book those seats in advance, carry all the important documents, have that extra bundle of cash with you, don’t forget to use those discount coupons. And after taking all these precautions, all that is left for you to do is enjoy to your heart’s content with your kind of people.

#2. Consider Renting a House

If you are travelling in a group then one of the best options would be to rent a whole property like a house rather than a hotel.

The reason why we recommend this is that renting a house will come with several advantages.

For instance:

1) You will be able to do breakfast, lunch and dinner together

2) You will be able to keep an eye on the children

3) Live at your own terms and comfort

4) Cook your meals according to your own taste

Nowadays, there are many brands like Airbnb which makes the whole renting experience quite smooth, so you can always consider them for a hassle-free booking experience.

#3. Book a Resort

If you aren’t able to find a proper home for your group then the next best option would be to rent a resort. This is so, as the resorts, in particular, are designed keeping in mind the needs of different kinds of people.

So, chances are that you will be having some element or the other according to each and everyone’s taste. In many of them, you will even find a separate section for kids which helps the adults to enjoy separately.

#4. Take a Vote

While travelling in large groups, it is important to always take a vote and know everyone’s opinion. Discuss and talk every topic out with the group and then go by what the majority has to say.

If there is a tie then the two separate groups can choose to do their respective things and meet at a certain point.

For example, one group may want to go to a theme park and the other might want to explore a mall or something else. To solve this, the best way would be to split and then meet again at some pre-decided place, after enjoying a particular activity. It is a great group travel survival tip.

#5. Only One Outing Per Day

If you are travelling in a big group then don’t take the risk of organizing more than one major activity or outing per day.

The reason to not do this is that usually while travelling in a group people tend to explore on their own and sometimes may get scattered here and there. Thus, the challenge here lies in managing people.

Due to all this fuss, at times, you may get late for that next outing or something or the other might come up. Hence, to avoid unnecessary stress, it would be best to plan a single outing for a single day.

#6. Take Out Time for Proper Rest

As enjoying is important, resting is important too. So, make sure that you are having enough time to rest and rejuvenate your energies for exploring and discovering more on your trip.

#7. Be as Detail Oriented as Possible

Now, this is of great significance. While travelling with a large group always try and be as detail-oriented as possible. By this, we mean, that each and every step of the trip should be well planned and jotted down in detail.

To give you a perspective, every person should have the address of the hotel in writing with them at all times. You should have it all planned out well in advance as to when you will come back from that beach or which route would be the best to avoid unnecessary traffic? How will you manage that babysitter or anything of that sorts? List down all the questions as and when they come to your mind on a piece of paper and find fixes for them before you leave for the trip.

#8. Communication is Important for Group Travelling

At all times, ensure to communicate each and every announcement, big or small, to everyone in the group. For this, you can make a text group where you can discuss, announce and stay in touch with each other over every kind of issue.

#9. Divide the Tasks According to Your Strengths

As you travel, divide each and every task as per your strengths and weaknesses. It's very likely that someone in the group might be good at negotiating things. If so, then hand them the responsibility which requires talking and breaking a deal like booking a reservation.

If someone is good at speaking a foreign language then make them the spokesperson for the whole group for the entire journey.

By doing this, you will be spreading out the work. The best part is that everyone will feel appreciated, valued and useful as they will be contributing something or the other for the success of the whole journey.

#10. Keep Your Eyes Open for Group Discounts

Last but not the least, be aware of any discounts or coupon codes available at various attractions that you may venture. If you don’t see anything worth your interest, then you can always ask. Such discounts or deals will help you save a lot of your money.

So, with this last group travelling tip, we have come to the end of this post. If you are soon planning on travelling in a group then you can always refer to these points for a memorable journey. And for planning your itinerary, you can always count on Adotrip's AI-Driven Travel Planner tool for a smooth trip-planning experience.
