A guide book or travel guide is "a book of information about a place designed for the use of visitors or tourists".

It will usually include information about sights, accommodation, restaurants, transportation, and activities.

Maps of varying detail and historical and cultural information are often included.

Different kinds of guide books exist, focusing on different aspects of travel, from adventure travel to relaxation, or aimed at travelers with different incomes, or focusing on sexual orientation or types of diet.

Tourism is travel for pleasure, and the commercial activity of providing and supporting such travel.

The World Tourism Organization defines tourism more generally, in terms which go "beyond the common perception of tourism as being limited to holiday activity only", as people "travelling to and staying in places outside their usual environment for not more than one consecutive year for leisure and not less than 24 hours, business and other purposes".

Tourism can be domestic (within the traveller's own country) or international, and international tourism has both incoming and outgoing implications on a country's balance of payments.
