Time-Poor Travellers

 

Touring 101Hands up who feels time-poor! Being time-poor means having too many things on a to-do list, not enough hours in the day and constantly feeling rushed.

Fortunately, there are many modern conveniences which support time-poor people – you can have your groceries delivered, you can shop for clothes online, you can ask a mobile hairdresser to come to your place, you can employ party planners for your social engagements and DIY experts and gardeners to maintain your home.

At first, these little helpers seem a bit indulgent, but they allow you to stay focused on what you are great at, and enjoy most.

Professional helpers  are like temporary personal assistants, who make your life easier, and allow you to do more, in less time. Genius! And best of all, they are so efficient, that when you factor in the cost of the time you’d spend achieving the same result, they are also very good value.

So, when you finally find the time to get away from it all and travel, why forsake convenience? It can seem exciting to just arrive in a country and ‘wing it,’ until you realise that you are rather out of your depth, don’t know how to best get from A to B, have missed an absolute must-see, or waste valuable holiday time waiting in line or trying to find the best deals.

When you have limited travel or holiday time, you may like to consider talking to the experts, and taking a coach tour. Coach touring allows you to have a comprehensive experience in a short space of time, and guarantees you’ll get maximum enjoyment, along with the opportunity to meet and mingle with fantastic like-minded people.

Professionally planned tours utilise the most efficient routes, to allow you to really immerse yourself in the area; you get to walk, explore, shop, eat and experience the culture. You’ll take away sights, smells, and so many memories – forget everything you may have thought about watching everything whizz past from a window – you’ll spend far more time off the coach than on!

Without the stress of navigation and driving in a new place, you can use the travel time to rest, snooze, chat, or keep in touch (there’s free wifi on the coaches). You also have plenty of leg room, and no parking hassles. All the hotels have been booked, there are a number of options for sightseeing that you can take (most are included), or you are welcome to take some time to explore yourself, and meet the group as agreed.

Globus and Cosmos have several amazing itineraries in North America to choose from – from the Eastern USA and Canada, to the magnificent National Parks, to the Rocky Mountains, you can see plenty of the USA, and immerse yourself in it. They also offer fantastic tours in Europe, the United Kingdom, South America and Asia, with a number of special features, which you can tailor to suit your budget and wish list.

The coach may get you from A to B, but once you’re there, there will be ample opportunity to see the very best places at your destination. You can be as active or relaxed as you choose. The world is your oyster!
