Bad news on TV, what is the situation when the tour guide scolds the guests? You eat cold rice noodles, and the cold rice noodle shop gives you a five-day tour of Hong Kong for free. You are so happy!
You get your driver's license, and the driving school will send you on a six-day tour of 99 yuan and Yunnan. What do you think is really good!
Or you just found a travel agency at random and felt lucky to see someone staying in a five-star hotel in Hainan for five days at 999 yuan. How can you find such a cheap route?
Is this travel agency legally qualified? Do you want to sign a travel contract? It doesn't matter to you, as long as it is cheap.
You signed up, and you were a little nervous when you signed up. Black travel agency black brother said, nothing. You can buy it or not at the mall.
Then you choose to play the fool fully distracted, choose to believe in the beauty of the world.
On the tour group, the tour guide advised you to grind you and finally scolded you. You feel wronged. You took out your cell phone and filmed him scolding you. ...
Is this group definitely bad? Not necessarily. An elder sister of your group bought a bracelet in a shopping store on the first day and spent 300 thousand. Congratulations, your whole team will follow suit in the next few days.
Your whole group should coax this elder sister and take the attitude of coax your first girlfriend. What makes her happy? What did you say?/Sorry? "Elder sister, you are so beautiful, the bracelet is so beautiful, especially with your temperament. I will buy it if I have money. "
Why make her happy? Everyone's tour fee is paid by her! However, there is always a living Lei Feng who wants to go up and say, Sister, I think you have been cheated. ...
What if there are no local tyrants in your group? The tour guide grinds you, you carry it, you make trouble, you listen, and the tour guide makes trouble. There is no other way.
So, come on, watch the point!
First, sign up for a trip, watch travel itinerary carefully, and sign an electronic travel contract seriously. Regular travel agencies, scenic spots that need to be paid separately in the travel itinerary, or shopping stores to be visited will be clearly pointed out in the itinerary and listed separately in the contract. This is stipulated in the Tourism Law, and most travel agencies will abide by it.
If it's not in the contract, and it's not in the itinerary, as a result, there are scenic spots or special shopping shops that pay extra in your actual itinerary. If you don't sign the instructions of voluntary payment and voluntary participation with the tour guide at the tourist destination, you can complain to the local tourism bureau where you signed up. Don't worry, the tourism bureau will definitely accept it, take care of it 100%, and you will win 100%.
You find a regular travel agency, sign a travel contract, go to a shopping mall, go on a tour group, and you will know what to do. 1, shopping stores must enter the store. If you don't go in, you can't If you don't advance, there will be no contract spirit. It's not a loss to be disturbed by a tour guide. Shopping stores should exist for a long time. Don't stop at the exit of the shopping store. Walk around the store a few more times. Even if the storefront is only as big as your living room, turn around a few times. Don't stop and talk when you see others shopping. Even if you don't buy anything, the tour guide will still be very kind to you.
2. The scenic spots that are paid separately will be clearly written in the contract on the itinerary, whether they are free to choose or must go. If you must go, you must go. You are free to choose. It doesn't matter if you don't go. Don't persuade others not to go, just wait quietly at the gate. If you wait quietly, there will be no problem. The tour guide is still very kind to you.
Finally, shopping groups all have gambling elements, and travel agencies don't like it. Travel agencies like everyone to sign up for high-standard pure play groups!
Every tour group has a shopping trip, and even the expensive "pure play group" will enter the shopping store. The price of the shopping group you mentioned is relatively low. Generally, this group will tell you that shopping is not compulsory before departure, but in fact it is unrealistic for you to buy nothing. Even if you don't buy anything, he can't take it from your pocket, but you will feel uncomfortable and be isolated by the tour guide. For example, if someone enters a shopping mall, they will be thrown on a bus without air conditioning, saying all kinds of ugly words, or directly scolding you. It is more intuitive to give an example. On one occasion, a Hong Kong tour guide who signed up to travel to Hong Kong and Macao had a particularly good attitude on the first day. The next day, she began to enter various shopping stores. Only two people in the tour group bought things, and no one else bought them. When she came out, she looked dead at home and said, "I have never seen such a poor tour group as you." You know nothing about travel. " Later, I started selling hard and went into a chocolate shop, saying that every family had to buy 150 yuan, or I wouldn't be given a boat ticket to Macau, saying that the boat ticket was sponsored by the chocolate shop. On the bus, we were told that the driver had no salary and we should tip the driver. Every family must buy a set of souvenirs. Actually, domestic tours are also acceptable. You can't play well without buying things. Traveling abroad, someone else had his passport and was almost killed by the tour leader. And most people will go shopping with group tours. If you don't buy anything yourself, you will be isolated. Every time I sign up for a tour, I'm basically the only one who doesn't buy anything. It takes a strong psychological quality to get through it. So it's hard to avoid shopping with a group tour. Even if you can do it, you can't play well.
The effect of stealing music is refreshing. It is the wisest choice not to shop with a group. Shopping stores are all shopkeepers. Tour guides don't get paid, but all they earn is money for shopping rebates. The tour guide also kindly reminded us to distinguish between authenticity and bargaining. What you think is for tourists is actually the trust of the shopping store.
I just came back from a trip to Dalian the day before yesterday. Our tour group is going to two shopping stores, and we have to choose whether to buy it or not. The first shop went to a shopping mall in a Russian street. The tour guide said in the car that it was an authentic Russian goods store. These products are all from Russia. The quality is fine, but the price is more expensive. Bargain only at the waist. We men came to see razors. The list price of this shop is more than 400 yuan. The tour guide said to my ear that 100 yuan is enough. I told my boss that we all want 100 yuan. The boss said it was more than 400 yuan, but he had to give me 200 yuan anyway. I said 100 was enough and left. 100 is 100. The four of us happily bought it, and then turned around and bought 20 yuan of Russian chocolate. They were selling these two things all over the street when we walked out of the shop. Razor 40 yuan, Chocolate15 yuan, 0 yuan, the packaging is exactly the same as what we bought. I'm not sure which is true or false.
The second shop sells jade articles. When we entered the hall, we were taken to a lounge. The young lady holds five jade rings to let the tourists tell the truth from the false. After a while, she came on stage to explain the common sense of distinguishing between true and false. After speaking for more than a minute, a boss who speaks Minnan dialect came in and asked our lady if she spoke well. Everyone said yes. Is the boss serious? Guys, seriously. The boss said that I would reward 2000 yuan and let the waiter next to me take 2000 yuan to the female shopping guide on the spot. The boss said that his father is doing jade business in Myanmar, and their jade production and sales account for 1/3 of Myanmar. Seeing that you Shandong people are very kind, I give you a polished Yu Pei, and the atmosphere is very warm. Some people think that when they meet a bodhisattva, the pie really falls from the sky. After a while, they began to sell necklaces and bracelets, which were extremely cheap. After the village, seven people paid for necklaces on the spot, and the boss asked if they still wanted them. Those who want to buy have left, those who don't want to leave, and six or seven people have left. We came out and waited in the car for half an hour. Listen to a dozen shoppers, some buy 3 thousand, some buy 5 thousand, and some buy 8 thousand. At first, they thought they got a big bargain and gave a lot of things to match. Those of us who don't shop say it's a scam, and all the temporary workers are hired to play tricks on us. Suddenly, the car was completely abandoned.
This is the shopping I met during my trip the other day. If you buy less, you will be fooled; if you buy more, you will be fooled. Only if I don't buy it can I not be fooled. Everyone knows that travel shopping is a trap. Many people just can't hold their money bags and throw themselves into a trap. Give a little kindness and make the shopping guide feel like a bodhisattva. It's too late to understand now. Therefore, when traveling, don't go shopping in a shopping store. No shopping is fun.
Hello, I'm Jenny, the tour guide. A first-line tour guide who has worked in East China for three years. I hope my answer can help you understand the true face of your shopping group.
1. Self-experience, with a sense of shopping group.
I usually travel to East China, mainly from Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai. Most of the tours I take are purely recreational tours, but occasionally I take part in some shopping tours. Most members of the shopping group are middle-aged and elderly people, and some people will have the heart of "taking advantage" and don't buy anything at all. But take the tour guide as an example, as long as you cooperate with my work, everyone is well-intentioned, and the tour guide will not bother you! There is no insulting tourists, closing the car and leaving! These are illegal! So, please don't generalize, thinking that buying a tour guide without anything will embarrass you.
2. The nature of shopping groups
Shopping groups are often low-priced groups, travel agencies participate in gambling, and tour guides participate in gambling. The purpose is still for traffic!
Yunnan one-dollar tour; 9.9 Tour Beijing! These travel expenses will be reflected in the shopping store! Nothing for nothing.
But shopping groups are legal! Before the tourists go out, the travel society makes it clear to the tourists that this is a shopping group and will sign the travel contract! So many people clearly come out as a shopping group and say that they are purely fun, or some people will say but don't know that this is a shopping group! These are all lies. Travel agencies can't afford to cheat consumers and sign contracts!
3. What should I do to join a shopping group?
Everyone's choice is different. There is no shame in joining the shopping group. Some people just want to buy things when they go out.
But please cooperate with the tour guide during the tour. For example, in a shopping store, the travel contract is two hours, so you can honestly stroll in it for two hours without affecting other tourists' shopping, and don't always leave the door open and just stroll around! It doesn't matter if you buy nothing!
If you don't want to go into the shopping mall, or you don't stay long enough, it is a violation of the contract signed at that time!
If you are really kind, fulfill the contract, and the tour guide has any illegal behavior against you, you can choose to complain!
Summarize! Choose the right tourism products! Sign a formal travel contract! Correctly fulfill the travel contract! Joining a shopping group is not terrible. The terrible thing is that you can't understand the shopping group correctly!
Hello, it depends on how much your tour fee is.
(1) Cost price lower than market common sense
If you don't go shopping, not to mention the profit, even the cost is not enough. If you don't go shopping, tour guides and tour leaders will at least be in a mood.
Because this kind of tour group is basically bought by tour guides, they bet on their purchasing power and are willing to buy it after buying it.
Then if a tourist doesn't buy at this time, it is impossible to at least pay back the tourist's money, let alone make a profit.
Therefore, the tour guide will formulate some methods to make the guests buy, such as coaxing the tourists, giving them a sense of trust, and then promoting the order, or the employees will get angry and let the tourists get off.
(2) Almost equal to the cost of the group.
This kind of tourism belongs to the industry term "direct connection" tourism, that is to say, all the expenses are incurred. There are no shopping spots in this kind of tour, so you can buy as many as you want, but the tour guide will not give any pressure, and it is estimated that it will only remind tourists to pay more attention to their words.
(3) the normal price of the group
This kind of travel is basically profitable for travel agencies. Then, if there are shopping spots on the itinerary, it is basically equivalent to a scenic spot. When you walk around, you can look around. There is no need to buy it, and the tour guide will not give any pressure. Even the tour guide is playing games and smoking outside. This is easy, but most people will buy some handwritten letters.
If you want to sign up for a shopping tour, you must know clearly and be careful. I suggest you don't join a shopping tour group that is below common sense. Of course, if you are tolerant, you can still have fun. Otherwise, you will regret the high probability event.
Tell me about my experience. In 2008, I participated in a shopping tour in Yunnan. Travel expenses are very cheap. It can be said that even the fare on the road is not enough. I often go to shopping stores, but I don't force shopping. I have participated in some tour groups at home and abroad in recent years. There is a minimum time limit for entering some shops. I can't go out even if I don't shop. He'll let you wander in it. You can do whatever you want. There's always something you like. Of course, if you buy less, the tour guide will give you a new look. Just don't care too much. It doesn't matter. If the group breaks up, you may never see him again. Now, travel. Last year, we were in a shop in Malaysia. Few people in the group buy anything. It is up to the tour guide to decide whether to shop or not. Ignore him, so just don't care.
If you take part in the "shopping group" tour and buy nothing, I'm sure at least you won't be given a good look, and some will even hear bad words.
I often read the news that if I take part in some low-cost tours, I will encounter all kinds of "treatment", some will not be allowed to go without shopping, some will be looked down upon, some may be rude, and so on.
But I also heard that some of them are ok, not forced. I hope you can buy it, but it won't force consumption, and so on.
Having said that, what I really want to say is, why did these things happen? I think the key is some hidden rules.
Tour guides don't get paid, but they get paid with shopping rebates. If so, the tour guide will have a hard time. If they want to live and eat, they must have a source, otherwise they will drink the northwest wind.
And I think, as a travel company, we should do some classic routes, develop content, multi-level and multi-project tourism products according to different needs, and some of them can be tailored to make people feel that the travel company is really good. In this way, you will gain the reputation of ordinary people, so there will be repeat customers and bring you more quality customers.
In a word, I think, as our consumers, we must first master a principle. We must know that there can be no free lunch in the world. Generally speaking, it is fair to get and pay. How much you pay, how much service you will get.
Therefore, when we travel abroad, we should not only look at the price when choosing travel companies and products, but also look at them all, give full consideration and choose a regular and high-quality travel company. People who spend the least money should not only have a good time, but also have a good time.
The above is just my humble opinion, because I haven't actually participated in these "shopping group" tours, so I don't fully understand the specific situation. For reference only!
What are the consequences of joining a shopping group without buying anything? I have been in the tourism circle for seven years. Let me answer this question for you. The ancestors of domestic shopping groups are Hong Kong and Macao routes, and then Yunnan. Now, all parts of the country have followed this model ~
What happens when a low-priced shopping group doesn't buy anything?
(1), when you meet a strong tour guide, your wallet will be thinner, especially when there are no local tyrants in the group ... you can consider it. The tour guide will explain to you, buy tickets, arrange meals and even compensate you for the tour fare. Even if it were you, you wouldn't want to ~ tour guides generally say that shopping is soft first, if everyone buys more and buys less. You can imagine that the ideological work of the whole group has been done, and basically everyone will cooperate with the tour guide and buy more. After all, you know exactly how much tour fare you paid. I still don't want to buy it. The tour guide is noisy and has a bad attitude. Listen.
(2) If there are local tyrants in your group, congratulations. Large-scale consumption directly contracts the consumption of all members, and others can do without buying anything, but you must also stay in the shopping store for enough time according to the itinerary. Maybe you want to say something to a spendthrift tourist. At this time, we must see the situation clearly. People have contracted the tour fee of this group to save you money. Just follow the group honestly. Doing more is better than doing less.
(3) All shopping groups participate in gambling. This is the truth about joining a shopping group. I hope everyone will make a good choice when signing up for the tour, whether it's pure play or shopping, it's suitable for them ~
Depending on what group you are in, as long as there are no compulsory consumption items, even if you are empty-handed, most reasonable tour guides will not treat you badly. After all, it is stipulated in the contract signed by the group. After all, if you don't buy the same tour group, someone will buy it. As long as a tour group is not free, the tour guide gets a commission. But even if a group spends zero at one shopping spot, it is impossible to spend zero at other shopping spots, so the general tour guide will not force everyone.
Unfortunately, when you meet a few tour guides with poor quality, your face will be ugly, your speech will be sarcastic, and you will even increase shopping spots and self-funded projects to make up for it.
Therefore, everyone should spend rationally, have strong psychological quality according to their own economic ability and preferences, resist the shopping consumption of chicken ribs, resist the soft grinding and hard foam of tour guides, and talk sweetly.
If there are obvious words such as compulsory consumption and minimum consumption in the group contract, you should buy something to get on the bus anyway and continue your pleasant trip. Otherwise, close the darkroom and grind it until everyone comes home with a full load. Because these groups are absolutely low-cost groups, your little money is only enough to buy a single air ticket, and you are guaranteed to eat, live and play for a few days for free. It is also meaningful to spend some money.
Therefore, before signing a travel contract for payment, please be sure to ask and read the travel shopping items in the contract clearly, and whether there is the word mandatory minimum consumption.
Just, shopping, or going in for a walk, not buying or listening, will always open your eyes and gain some knowledge.
Traveling with a group is indeed much easier than doing your own raiders, but it is not without trouble, just like you said compulsory shopping. According to the propaganda I have seen, no travel agency generally recognizes that this group needs to buy things.
A reliable travel agency with a certain scale of operation, if you don't shop or shop less, the tour guide will not treat you easily, at most, the mentality has changed. It is understandable that they get a commission for this.
For those tour groups that are below the market price, it is not clear what is waiting for you. There are many news reports on tourism dispute cases, and most of them are such teams. You think it's cost-effective to sign up for such a tour, and in the end you will get a more troublesome result than a pure tour.
Therefore, travel should be reported to the pure play group. In short, it is greedy and cheap. It is better to tell the truth and pay more. If your travel mood is ruined, it will be in trouble.
It is necessary to report to the US group for takeaway at a low price, and fly the pig net to play in a pure group. First, there is no cost-effective headcount in the store. Second, tour guides are afraid of chaos because of five-star feedback. Most of them are more cost-effective than shops.
