10 Things a participant can do to enjoy a tour
On a coach with 40 + participants one can always detect a few participants who are not enjoying the tour. It is the organizer job to ensure the trip is able to achieve the objective of the tour be it educational, entertainment or shopping. The organizer can only do so much.
There are things a participant can do either emotionally or physically to help them have a pleasant journey. We cannot change what happen to us, but we can be prepared for change and control our emotions and thoughts.
Things participants can do:-
1) Please do understand regardless of why you join the tour, you wanted to have fun and be happy.
2) Please understand what kind of tour is it, education or fun or farm tour.
3) Read through the itinerary to ensure that there are NO place you do not want to go on the list.
4) If this is a shopping trip please do bring enough cash and whenever possible use ATM/Credit cards. Some shops accept cash only.
5) On a bus, please do listen to the driver and make him happy as your life depends on him.
6) If you are buying frozen product, please bring along your Styrofoam box.
7) Please bring along hooks to hook the plastic bags against the front seat.
8) Please do help out each other. We are in the same boat. If there is a delay, all is delay.
9) Please do bring along water, sun screen and hat if there are a lot of out-door activities.
10) Please do understand regardless of why you join the tour, you wanted to have fun and be happy
I am sure there are many more things participants can do to enjoy. Feel free to email me or drop some comments! It will be added to the list and credits given.

5 do and don't of arranging a successful local tour itinerary
Today is Christmas, I thought we should take a break from introducing new locations. Instead, I will be introducing to you guys the 5 DOs and 5 DON'Ts when organising local tours in Singapore (for that matter anywhere in the world for some of the points).
Do:-
1)DO understand the objective of the tour. Is the tour an educational tour, business tour or shopping tour? Understanding the purpose of the tour will ensure you will not go off topic and disappoint all your particpants. This point can be obvious, but it cannot be stressed enough.
2) DO state upfront or imposed a limit on the number of particpants. This is important because the number of particpants will determine how many vehicles and type of vehicles are required to transport the tourist. It will also determine how many guides (if any are required). Lastly some of the locations you are visiting may imposed on the number of visitors one can visit at any one time.
3) DO understand the type of particpants that are joining the tour. In Singapore, where we live in a multi-racial society, it is of upmost relevance. For example, we need to be aware of any diet restriction (Halal, vegetarian, prefered mode of communication and any movement aids required).
4) DO know the age group composition of the particpants. Are there alot of kids, senior citizens or is it a mix group? Are the participants together with families or friends? This enable us to communicate in advance to the vendors the type of customers they are expecting. It also help us to assign helpers to folks who are alone to ensure that nobody get lost.
5) DO book in advance the venues and vehicles required to prevent disappointment. Nothing can be worsed then going to a venue and see that the metal gates are shut!
DON'T
1) Don't forget to count the number of particpants when you are moving off from one location to the next.
2) Don't go to busy shopping centers if you can help it, especially, if there are alot of senior citizens in the group
3) Don't allow particpants to go off on their own without telling the organiser or person-in-charge. For that matter, DON'T forget to count the number of particpants before setting off from a venue.
4) Don't allow senior citizen or young children to go off on their own. Also ensure that the location you are visiting align with the physically ability of the particpants. Example boat ride and hiking demand a certain level of physical ability.
5) The most important! DON'T forget to remind and let the particpants have fun!
