Group departures are pre-scheduled trips where a set itinerary is followed by a group of travelers, typically led by an experienced guide. These trips are open to anyone who wants to join, ranging from solo travelers to friends or families.

People join group departures for several reasons: they offer a cost-effective way to explore, provide a chance to meet like-minded individuals, and allow participants to enjoy the convenience of a well-planned itinerary without the need to organize details themselves.
