For anyone contemplating finding a competent and enthusiastic guide to get the most from a visit to London, the question of the day is what to look for online. You not only need to know where to stay, but who can offer a one off day out, covering say your interest, hobby or your full package or .

There are many answers when it comes to this question, and lots of offers, promotions and leaflets, but probably the best answer is to get to know your guide, ask him or her the questions before you leave home, people select tourist products usually form the hotel concierge, or local travel agent to your home who may push what may be an unsuitable day out, that they promote, you need to check that the tour is available, and does it get you what you want?. This way there is no element of surprise on your important holiday time. In other words, you have a pretty good idea of what it is you are getting when you get here.

For example, buying a Thames boat ride, Catamaran Cruisers does very well because there's no more mystery to buying a cruise up the Thames online, than if they were in the ticket office purchasing the ticket. However you can't feel or touch a guided walk or tour online, but the internet might even be better shopping opportunity, because it offers the opportunity to ask the questions and get a solid idea about your day or days out, generally fast and easy, direct from the person taking you.

Travel sells well online. Using the internet is easier than making a trip to the travel store and again, you know exactly what you are getting. The internet also makes it easy to comparison shop for the most suitable guide offering similar walks or tours.

People often go to the internet to buy what is familiar. CD's Electronics are hot categories for consumers but some don't do as well online because buyers like to feel them, turn them on for clarity and test all the features of the product. Unless someone has seen a particular item in person, tested it out and knows exactly the style and model it is that they want, they're not as likely to go shopping online and buy it over the internet.
