📖 3. Les circuits organisés

• Tour operators ensure that accommodations, transportation, and activities meet safety standards and regulations, minimizing accident risks.

• Package tours may visit popular attractions during peak times, leading to overcrowding, long lines, and fewer opportunities for authentic experiences.

• Package tours may involve the inconvenience of traveling with incompatible or unpleasant companions.
