Type of tour

• Base camp mode - you spend the nights in same place, go out to different places every day
• Trip chaining mode - you spend nights at multiple destinations, move from one place to another
• Hub & spoke mode – similar to trip chaining but you return to same place multiple times, which is far away – so similar to base camp but distances are too far to return to base camp every night
• En-route mode - you visit a secondary destination on way (or on return leg) to a primary destination
