The secret to buying cheap but quality tours
There are many travel companies but not all of them are reputable and of good quality. The way to recognize a reputable travel company is through the time of operation of the company; if the company has been established for a long time and is still developing, it proves that the company has good tour quality. Along with that, you should consult the opinions of relatives and friends who have chosen that travel company, because after the actual trip, they will more or less have a realistic assessment of whether that company is good or not.
One thing to note when choosing a Tet tour is that you should not choose tours that spend a lot of time shopping. Some travel agencies often connect with supermarkets and stores to bring customers to use their services and receive a percentage of commission. To get discounts for travel agencies, stores and supermarkets will increase prices, many tourists think they are buying cheap goods but in fact they are being cheated. Therefore, you should choose tours with shopping programs on free days to avoid buying more expensive items than usual.
When buying a tour, you need to check whether it is a package price or not. Usually, travel companies offer prices that do not include airfare + VAT + other fees... to avoid being fooled by travel companies, so consider each item carefully.

You should also learn about transportation, hotel standards, room types and service quality, and accompanying services. In addition, you should pay attention to the itinerary of the places to visit and choose tours with a moderate number of places to visit. Tours with many tourist attractions are not good because if you do not have enough time, you will be tired.
Buying individually will not be as beneficial as buying in groups. Moreover, the more people you have, the more fun it will be. Therefore, choose to buy a tour in groups if you can call everyone to join to feel the joy and togetherness when participating in the Tet tour.
Note that tourists should avoid the mentality of "waiting for last-minute discounts" because Tet is the peak season of the year. Tourism services as well as airline tickets become scarce, and the chance of hunting for cheap last-minute tours for tourists is very low. In addition, customers who buy tours early help minimize the risk of running out of seats, affecting the whole family's Tet holiday plans./.
