Tour Operator Services & Providers

Define the scope

Tour proposals should describe the actual itinerary and the services the operator will provide. Accommodation, transport, guides, admission and meals may be bundled differently. Compare inclusions and flexibility as well as the headline price, and confirm current arrangements directly before booking.

What to compare between providers

• Check the itinerary, group size, guide language and pace.
• Identify the operating businesses and what is excluded from the price.
• Read cancellation, substitution and assistance arrangements.

Prepare a useful request for a quote

• Share dates, destinations, group needs and preferred activities.
• Explain mobility, accessibility or dietary needs in advance.
• Request a written itinerary and itemised inclusions before payment.
