When clients enquire about general tour information, the ready-made content from your webpages can be forwarded to the clients directly by URL. However, be specific. Don’t overload your travel clients with too much information. Forward them the very relevant page addressing their queries e.g. your profile page with prices and licence copy saved.

People would like to know more about yourself and the guiding services before they confirm the booking. A web page is easily accessible for them to get some information.
