Depending on how you like to travel, you might or might not find yourself joining in with many tours as you go around the globe. Some people absolutely love them, and try to do them wherever they possibly can – while others will usually prefer the freedom of exploring on their own. Both ways have their benefits, and really the best travelling is that which combines a little of both to a degree that you find enjoyable and reasonable personally.
But there are some places in the world which you just have to take a tour or if you are visiting them, as it will enhance the experience so much and make you appreciate it so much more than you would otherwise. Let’s take a look at some of those places now.
Machu Picchu
If you ever find yourself in South America, this is probably going to be one of the first things you want to do and see. The famous Inca trail leads to the old temple of Machu Picchu, a truly incredible sight which you will want to make the most of while you are there. The best way to do so, of course, is to grab a tour. That is the best way to ensure that you are going to know what you are really looking at, understand the history behind it and culture surrounding it, and get to learn all those little details that make it that much more interesting to behold. If you want to try and get your money’s worth, you might also consider something like a joint Machu Picchu and Galapagos tour, or a combination of a different kind. There are many of these that you might consider and find useful for your purposes, depending on what you have planned.
Stonehenge
In the South-West of England is this beautiful ancient relic, the exact purpose and history of which is still not entirely known. But there are some things we do know: we know roughly when it was built, where the stones themselves came from, and what kind of ceremonies may have taken place there. All of these are the kinds of things you will learn on a tour of Stonehenge, and that is why you should absolutely take one if you find yourself at Avebury looking for the stones. They are a truly incredible sight, and you will find that having a decent tour guide will just make it even more special and complete.
Fraser Island
There is plenty to see in Australia, much of it in the way of natural beauty. One such place that you might want to go to is Fraser Island, a famous island off the East coast of Queensland. This is known for its wide array of activities and easygoing holiday-friendly vibe. But it’s also got some history and interesting facts surrounding it, and a tour might just be the best way to learn all about it for that reason. Consider this if you ever find yourself down under and wondering what to do.
