          A person who
                goes on tour is a tourist.
          People who
                assist tourists to go around - usually for a fee or as
                  a profession - is known as a
                tour guide.
           
          Some people
                make the distinction between a traveller and a tourist.
          A tourist
                engages the help of a tour agency and/or a tour guide
                and goes to well known places of interest.
          A traveller
                would normally travel independently and, in addition to
                going to places of interest, go off the beaten track.
