What is a guided group tour?
When you go on Scuba Travel's guided group trips, you travel in a group with a person who is an experienced traveler and knowledgeable and experienced guide, (compare the English "cough"). Your guide is a person who loves to travel and dive. They can take care of and help with logistics and guiding at the destination if necessary. The benefits of going on guided group trips include security, companionship and convenience. Because the tour leader can help deal with any problems and coordinate and inspire on site. These people have traveled with groups before and can provide tips and inspiration for future trips and destinations.
Many people like to travel in groups but don't want to have as much focus on a particular activity. Then our guided group trips, which give a little more space for your own time and are less controlled, may be a better alternative than our ambassador trips. Over the years, interest in these trips has grown.
Our hosts for these trips have traveled and dived extensively and are happy to share their experiences and insights, making the trips as enjoyable and fun as possible for you and the other participants.
How do I sign up for a guided group tour?
When you have found a trip you are interested in, it is easy to email us or call and register. Of course you are welcome with questions etc. For those of you who are thinking of extending your trip, you can of course do so. You can leave earlier or return home later and if you want help with extension programs, we will of course help with that too.
Experience more in a group, share experiences and find friends for life
These trips are perfect for those of you who are traveling alone but would like and want company. Many people who travel in groups find new friends. Maybe you appreciate simple things like having company on the boat or at the dinner table. Just having someone to talk to is generally experienced as fun. When you travel in a group, it is also easier many times, you have extra eyes at airports. There you can leave luggage without having to lug it around everywhere. You share the experience with others and can talk about what you saw below the surface, etc. Guided group trips are simply trips with someone who is on the trip and in place with you and the other travelers.
