THINKING OF TRAVELING AS A GROUP?
Let's Make it Extraordinary!

Pulling together a group trip is an exciting journey all on its own, but it takes some know-how to make it seamless and unforgettable. Whether you’re gathering your closest friends, your church community, or a mix of adventurous souls, here are 6 tips to keep your planning on point:
1. Start at Least 12 Months in Advance
Great group travel doesn’t happen overnight! A full year gives you time to pick the perfect destination, snag the best group rates, and work out all the details.
2. Choose Destinations That Fit Your Group’s Interests
For Catholic explorers, think spiritual hotspots like the Vatican or the Holy Land. For sassy seniors, maybe a wine river cruise or cultural landmarks! Pick places everyone will love.
3. Lock in the Best Pricing with Group Discounts
Early bookings often come with amazing perks, like discounted fares or complimentary extras. Plus, the earlier you book, the better the selection of accommodations and experiences.
4. Set a Realistic Budget for Everyone
Make sure the trip fits a range of budgets, and be upfront about costs for things like excursions, meals, and gratuities. No surprises, just smooth sailing!
5. Create a Flexible Itinerary
Mix must-see attractions with downtime. Your group will appreciate a balance of guided tours and time to explore (or relax!) on their own.
6. Why a Groups Travel Consultant is Your Key to a Seamless Journey (Groups travel is our expertise!)
Planning a group trip can quickly become overwhelming with all the moving parts. Let COONES TRAVEL AND TOURS handle all the details, so you can focus on enjoying every magical moment of your adventure.
