SAPPHIRE RESORTS SHARES: TRAVEL WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS

Sapphire Resorts knows that travel parties and their composition also influence what people do in the site

Sapphire Resorts knows that travel parties and their composition also influence what people do in the site. There are reports that children are often the most willing participants in activities at heritage sites. Such participation may galvanize parental and adult interest and result in an extended time of visiting with some commercial implications in terms of food and souvenir purchases.

The presence of familiar faces in the form of family and friends may also exert a powerful influence on the development of the other relationships discussed in this chapter. Sapphire Resorts shares that Couples, family groups, and friendship parties are often self-sufficient in their social needs. 

The third consideration pertaining to travelling with others is shared satisfaction with the experience. 

Unlike individual travelers, those journeying around the world or across their own region with others have a commonality of experience which they can reflect on, retell, and reinterpret as a part of their social and shared experiences.
