Organized tour prices vary a great deal of course depending on what services are offered (their costs) and what people are willing to pay, just like any other business. I toured for a week with a fine fellow who organizes and runs one of the largest and oldest organized tours out east each year and he let me in on some of the hidden costs and much of the behind the scenes work that went on. It was surprising how much went into it but that being said, it was still very profitable to say the least. A reasonable annual income was produced by his one or two events a year but it took years and years to build the numbers up and develop a reputation of quality service.
