A Better Tour? Private vs. Group

There are two options that you can choose from when you are going on a tour. You can either go on a group tour or a private tour. A group tour is when you join a group of people, and you leave at a set time and go to organized places. A private tour is custom designed for you, your wants, needs and desires. Both tours have their own advantages and disadvantages, so you will have to see what is most important for you, and what you can do without.

One major advantage of private tours is that you are able to custom design your entire stay. You are able to choose where you would like to go and what you would like to see. All the decisions are up to you. If you are on a group tour, you have a previously decided schedule that can't be changed. With a private tour, the trip will be more flexible and relaxing, because you won't have to worry about any one else. You will get your own privacy and comfort. You can make spontaneous changes that won't cause any inconveniences to others. You would be able to make leisurely stops for shopping, sightseeing, eating or taking pictures. The downside of private tours is that they are a little more expensive. Obviously, an upgrade in your private services comes with a slight upgrade in cost. This extra money will pay for the private transportation, your personal driver and the coordinator's additional effort to accommodate all of your personal plans.

The primary benefit of group tours is the reduced cost. It is cheaper than a private tour because the entire group of people will divide the expenses for transportation and guides. Another advantage is that you will get to meet new people on the bus, tours or at your hotel. Doing it with new people might make it more fun than doing it by your self. One of the leading disadvantages of a group tour is the inability to make your own decisions. You will not be able to choose the places that you will visit, and there is a very rigid schedule. You can't choose your own accommodations or stopping places. You must be at the bus at a certain time, eat lunch at a certain time, arrive at a certain time and leave at a certain time. The choices of everyone will affect you, and your personal trip. However, if you happen to get an agreeable group, it could prove to be quite memorable.

Your verdict can be made depending on whether your privacy is more important to you, or your budget is more important to you. If you don't mind paying extra for a personal custom designed tour, then it will probably be more comfortable, relaxing and enjoyable for you. A group tour is better suited for the more exploratory people that don't want to deal with the planning part of a tour. They are able to take a cheap, premade trip. Both types of tours are thoroughly enjoyable, despite their differences, and are certainly worth taking.

How to choose the best quality sleeping bags

As positively ridiculous as the Lippi Selk Wearable Sleeping Bag/Suit looks, I have to admit it’s actually a pretty damn good idea. And judging by the fact that half their products are completely sold out, a good many other outdoor enthusiasts agree.

Are you planning to trip or trek? If the answer is yes then comfortable sleeping bags are a necessity. These bags are an essential part of caravan accessories. There are many times when we need a comfortable bed to sleep in when we are trekking or hiking. It is not always possible to carry beds with us while we are traveling. In these cases these bags can best suit our needs.

These bags can be easily carried for trips. You can get these bags in the market under various brand names. These bags are available in three different styles like tapered, rectangular and mummy style. The rectangular bag has single or double designs. The latter can accommodate two people at a time. The mummy style can cover the whole body from all sides. The mummy style can also be called a cocoon style bag. In the tapered style of bag, it is wider on the top and gets narrower as it comes down. That is why it is called the tapered style.

While selecting among the various kinds of bags the most important thing to consider is the type of filling of the bag. Down sleeping bags are one of the best ones as they are made up of natural down feathers and give natural warmth. You can also get cotton, polyester and other types of materials used for filling sleeping bags. In cold places, down bags are your best bet. These kinds of bags are very light and portable. These down bags are available in mummy style with a zip. The zippers permit us to open the bag as much as needed. Their base is very soft and comfortable. You can get additional pads in the market if you want more comfort. This ensures good sleep and a happy journey. A sound sleep will keep you active for the next day's schedule.

The temperature rating facility of the bag should not be ignored. Different kinds of models are used to suit different climatic conditions. If it is a cold place then you will have to pay a little extra in order to get warm sleeping bags and if you are staying in a hot country then summer weight bags will serve your needs.
The prices of down bags are more than other bags as they contain natural down feathers, and these bags ensure you a home like feeling.
