Free & Easy vs Guided Tours


Don't ask me! I'm having a headache deciding!!

What's your option when you decide to travel to a foreign country? What helps you determine which mode to choose from? Here are my set of questions when I need to choose between F&E and guided tours for my travel:

  • Is it my first trip to the country?
  • Is it safe for me to travel on my own?
  • Is it more expensive to travel on my own?
  • How easy is it to get around?
  • How is the transport network in the country?
  • Is there a language problem?
  • What is my budget?
  • Do I have travel companions?

After considering all of the above, I will make my decisions and book my holiday accordingly. Usually I prefer to travel on my own in Europe. But when I decided to travel across more than one country, I have to resort to a guided tour. Free and easy gives me more time to enjoy the scenery and appreciate the local culture. And of course, I can skip those places that I do not wish to visit. Hope my list helps. What's yours?
