An itinerary is a detailed plan for a tour. It has the detailed information of the route and the plan for the journey. It offers information not only on the arrangements but also the features of the tour. An itinerary should therefore be as informative as possible. At the same time, it should also be interesting and attractive, like promotional material.

A complete itinerary consists of items such as tour title, day-by-day events, destinations and duration. A tour title usually focuses on the length and the location of the tour, for example “A Three-day Tour to Xi’an”. Day-by-day events give more specific information about destinations, scenic sites, accommodation, transportation, as well as special events.
