Travelling on your own is more exciting
It is said that travelling is an investment in yourself. In fact, it should be! Just think over that when you travel it's like you try to shape your desires to find imaginary, unknown and exotic and so, being able to reach your personal fulfillment. At the end of your travel time, you reach to the pleasing conclusion you grew up inwardly more than you could have planned. But, if you travel according to someone else's plan, like a tourism company, are you really free for visiting all the places you intended to ? For sure, you aren't! That's why travelling alone is the best option if you really want to have a rewarding travel.
Travellig alone provides you draw your own route without being stuck a company's schedule for each attraction. You have freedom to know the places in a way just you could. You spend enough time in your destination, admiring that famous point you probably saw in a magazine or web page photo for example. Following this perspective, your travel becomes a sighseeing of dreams.
Another importain issue is the time flexibility. Who doesn't want to relax while travelling? People also want just stop and contemplate something for some time in a trip. Sleeping and waking up the time you prefer also takes part in a dream travel, because travelling is not only fun but also theraphy. Any travel has to have its relaxing time. If you'll go travelling with an agency there's a huge probability you won't have that kind of time. Every minute and second is filled with something and travel run the risk to get you tired.
Maybe economy is one of the main reasons people choose to travel on their own. Notice that when you travel through a package, air tickets, hotels and food aren't the cheaper because tourism companies try to keep the highest quality possible. So, you end up paying a higher price for everything when there's same quality options for a lower price. So, planning well a travel can make you save much.
As it was said, travelling on your own has promising advantages over travelling with an agency, but, it should be highlighted to enjoy all these advantages it's needded you search for the cheaper in advance, when it comes to air tickets,hotels and food and outline all you want to visit in your destination. So, the travel get comfortable and free of bad surprises for you.

Thanks for the tip Expector!
I always travel alone and when I say alone I mean really alone. My best idea of traveling is to grab a backsack with only the essential and walk ways that other people, alone and deprived of the superfluous things that really don't add to life, walked before me. I already did the Santiago of Compostela Way, the St Francis Way and this year will head to Italy again to do the St Benedetto Way. And what a glory it is, at 61, to leave everything behind and count only with my forces and my determination!
I also agree with you in the way of doing it by yourself since it has the advantages you mentioned although it's a little bit difficult for a family man, so the best way it's a combination of both, that's why I'm planning my next hollidays in a caravan with my family :)
Great work!
I may choose to travel with a group, though - cheaper (saving money), safer, not lonely, etc.
There's a common learner error in this sentence: "People also want just stop and contemplate something for some time in a travel." - Tip: "travel" is an uncountable noun. You could say "a trip" or "a journey", but not "a travel". "Travel" can be so tricky to use.
