Traveling alone is better than a group tour led by a tour guide.
Many people think that traveling alone would be comfortable and feel free because there is no trouble with travel partner. However, people can suffer from the communication and health problem at the new place. Furthermore, they feel bad because of no partner who can share the information and feeling. Therefore, a group tour is better than single travel.
To begin with, a tour guide informs various of information of the new place, and people do not need to spend time for searching information. Most tour guide has many experienced about the area. They can explain history as well as beautiful restaurants to the tourist. Moreover, a tourist faces ahead difficulty, they can give help easily. For example, the tour guide might tell the nearest hospital when someone has stomach disease.
In addition, people can meet new people in a tour group and they can share time and enjoy travel together. People can meet various people who have different backgrounds and distant experiences. It is very exciting thing to communicate among the various people. Thought the communication in a tour group, people can feel fun and get new knowledge from members of the group. In my personal experience, I meet Italians during group tour of Turkey, and we talked about religious of our own countries in the night after tour. I learned about the Italian society throughout the communication.
In sum up, I disagree with the argument that traveling alone is better than a group tour because of several beneficiations of the group tour. The group tour gives various of information for new place and the new social network. I think people enjoy their travel as member of tour group.
