A method for communicating tour information to a user of a mobile electronic device is disclosed. The mobile device receives from a global positioning satellite (GPS) system geographic coordinates of the mobile device, compares them with coordinates stored in a database having associated with them a point-of-interest. Once coordinates of a point-of-interest are located and determined to be within a predetermined distance from the mobile device, the system will select from the plurality of tour data, a preprogrammed tour corresponding to that POI. The internet may be accessed through the device's wireless transceiver in order to download internet material associated with the point-of-interest. The tour and internet material information is then communicated to the user through a user interface.
