traveling alone or with a group

please would you correct my essay.

Many people may hold the opinion that traveling with a group is better than alone, while others adhere an opposite direction. I agree with this statement because I think traveling with a group is less expensive and safer. I feel this way for two reasons, which I will explore below

To begin with, there is no doubt that traveling is always expensive. We have to pay flight tickets booking expensive hotel rooms and not forget all money spending in food and transportation. Traveling with a group allows us to share the cost. We can split the cost of hotel and also food. My experience of traveling to Spain with friends is a good example of what I mean. Last summer I traveled to Madrid with two of my friends. We did not book three rooms because they are close to me so we booked one room and we shared it all of us. I just paid a third of room rate instead of paying the whole price. And another example, when we were taking the taxi to major seaside’s we splited the bill between us.

Secondly, travelling with a group is safer that alone. During my trip to Spain I didn’t worry about my safety and security like if I were traveling by myself. I can recall a good example, we wanted to visit a city called Malala, it was 50 miles away from my hotel and it was not very attractive to tourist .But because I saw a documentary on TV about it so I decided to visit it. I do not think I would have gone there if my friends were not me. It was rural area and there was almost no tourists. I felt safe when I was surrounded by my friends.

In conclusion, I strongly believe that traveling alone is better than traveling with a group. This is because it is safer and less expensive
