[quote=JAVAGURL ,20457]Hello! From my understanding of these two words:Travel guide: You don't have to worry about getting lost because they have professionals showing you various attractions (depending on which travel plans you purchase). You get three meals a day plus accomadations. Also, the service of the guides depends on how much your package is worth. They also offer travel insurance if the plan is purchased weeks ahead. The down-side: When you travel alone in a tour, you have to pay supplemental fees (up to $300 more USD) for sleeping in a hotel room fit for two person.Travel companion:As Rita mention, depending on how you term "companion". If it's someone you don't know who offers their time for a certain amount, it's not a good bet. Best to stick with a licensed agency if you really want that kind of travel companion. If the companion is a friend, then you'll save on your travel. You don't need to purchase package deals to have them take you around. You and your friend can do the exploring yourself. Just buy the airfare and the accomandations. However, with tour packages today, it's really affordable to join travel tours. From my experience, buying tickets alone versus buying package deal is just a couple of hundred dollars difference. Imagine all the other good stuff included in the package![/quote]
