8 tips for group travel (save & share this post): 1. Set clear budgets upfront so everyone knows if this trip is for them. There’s nothing like planning an entire trip based on X amount of people to find out it’s out of someone’s budget & now everyone else is paying more when they ultimately drop out or get to the destination & say they can’t cover something 🥴. 2. Have 1-2 group leaders. Too many people trying to be in charge is never a good idea. Plus everyone isn’t a planner and organization is key when planning a group trip. Leaders can delegate tasks if there’s someone that’s really good at one thing like nightlife activities. 3. Set up a central place where everyone can access the trip plans. I personally love Google Docs for this as it updates automatically. 4. Communication is key. During the planning process make sure everyone’s voice is heard. Either ask everyone to provide a list of things they want to do while in the destination, provide options & vote on them. 5. Pssst.... it’s okay if you don’t do everything on together. Even on a group trip it’s still your trip, you paid to be there. If there’s something you really want to do but no one else does do it alone! One day 4 of us wanted to do a hike & 2 didn’t so we split up and all did what we wanted that day! 6. Flexibility is key! Believe me I’m type A, love itineraries & having a plan but when traveling with a group you have to be flexible. Things come up and if there is a change of plans due to a cancellation or something else out of the groups control when trying to come up with a plan b in a group setting everyone needs to be flexible. 7. Easily split bills with apps like Splitwise that way everyone knows who owes who later when one person grabs the tab. 8. Let’s be honest you can’t travel with every friend you have & that’s okay, some people you just have to be friends with at home only! What are your tips for planning group trips?
