Tours are regular services used in the Tourism industry:
...
- Addresses can have html descriptions linked to contribute to the tour overall html
...
A Tour is sold with a number of inclusions to a destination
- An example destination may be "Gold Coast"
- Example inclusions are "Water Park Ticket", "Lunch", "Water view Room" etc.
Normally a single destination will have multiple tours defined with different inclusions
A vehicle and driver travelling to a destination may carry a number of different tours.
- For example a bus to the Gold Coast may on the same vehicle carry passengers who are on different tours (example one includes entry to the water park)
A single day travelling to a destination may require multiple vehicles
Tours are commonly sold via Agents
- Agents are intermediaries that may earn a commission or may pay directly for the tour
- Prices may vary depending on the commissions or some special offers
Tours may be AM, PM, all day or multiple days
- Multiple day tours may require Accommodation Bookings and confirmation numbers entered at time of booking
Passengers may depart a Tour vehicle midway through the itinerary and re-join on a later vehicle
- For example if on a Gold Coast multi-day tour the passengers are staying on for 3 days in the middle and then re-joining the tour.
Tour bookings may be picked up and dropped of from
- Known addresses - example hotels timing based on a route timing plan
- Entered addresses - timing to be estimated based on suburb
When a single booking has multiple passengers and will not fit on a single vehicle they may be split across vehicles
A Tour may be a special type like a Charter - that requires it's own vehicle
