Whether you have just a few short days, or that special longer trip you've planned years for, take a few minutes to think about your goals for your tour. A few guidelines are not only very helpful in making sure your next adventure meets and exceeds your expectations, but is essential for us to best assist with your next vacation of a lifetime. |
|
1. Deciding Destination: |
|
Do you have a specific destination in mind? |
Ask yourself what sorts of pre-conceived ideas to you have? Have your friends been there and told you about it? Did you read a magazine article? Is it a destination you've wanted to travel since you were a kid? Are there specific areas or activities, besides adventure activities you want to see or do? These "pre-conceptual" ideas play a very important role in how your actual vacation will compare to your planned vacation. With this information, we can ensure, as best as possible, you see and do what you want. Alternatively, we may recommend you into a different destination that will better suit your pre-conceived ideas. |
|
2. Traveling Time: |
|
When do you plan to travel? |
Is this a general time frame or specific dates? |
How long do you have for your trip? |
Is this flexible and if so how much? |
Do you have enough time to travel to your destination of choice? |
Have you researched or thought about your travel dates in light of: |
Is this the best time of year for that destination? |
Is it the best time of year for a specific activity you plan to do? |
Remember there are seasonality factors to many of the destinations. Also keep in mind that most destinations require additional travel time. |
|
3. Personal Data: |
|
How experienced are you? |
What type of riding experience are you looking for? |
Education? |
Nature experience? |
A bit of everything? |
What type of accommodation do you require? |
Lodges? |
Camping? |
So, with the above facts in ones head one can image the culture and heritage of a country like India. Every state has hundreds of regions and hundreds of regions have thousands of cultural tails behind them, which leaves a great number of heritage sites, structures and replicas to be explored by oneself. |
This information is really what helps us get a feel for what you want from your trip and is essential in our ability to truly customize your riding adventure to suit you. |
|
4. Budget: |
|
What is your budget (per person basis)? |
Is this flexible? |
What do you expect that budget to include? |
Airfare? |
Accommodation? |
Meals? |
if you are not sure what your proposed trip might cost, that is understandable, but a rough idea is still important. This is
probably the single most important piece of information you can provide as many itineraries / destinations can be done on different levels according to your data. No sense putting forth an itinerary that is not affordable or not desired. Likewise, we would not want to omit a great experience on your trip of a lifetime because it is expensive. Remember, a budget is subjective. What some may consider expensive is average to others. |
