A package holiday is a kind of holidays where everything is included, from flight and hotels to entrance fees. The
advantage of this type of holidays is that once you have purchased it, you have nothing much to worry (about-from-
on), except getting to the group meeting place. From the moment you meet up with the other participants, everything
(does- has done- is done) for you. If you (to have-have-had) a problem, the group leader will certainly help you.
The disadvantage of package holidays is that you give up the freedom to go and come whenever you want. The
tour will depart (for-at-into) a pre-set time every day. If you feel you have had enough, you cannot just leave but
have to stay with the group for the rest of the day. Being part of a group may also be a strain on (person- personal-
personally) relations if you don’t get along with the other members or if you are not interested (in-on-at) the same
things.
