Escorted tours are also known as Package Tours. Sitting Coach Tours or Escorted tours are normally conducted by a tour director who takes care of all services from the beginning to end of the tour. Sitting Coach Tours also normally include the flights, hotels, transportation, transfers to the airport/hotel, most meals and some sightseeing. Escorted tours are often conducted by motor coach and usually no more than three nights are spent in each location visited. They are usually fast-paced and prices include most everything.
