Google is foraying into the world of travel with the launch of Google City Tours.

The feature is a Google Maps application. City Tours is a new feature that presents the user with predefined tours around specific areas. The site generates suggested itineraries for destinations around the world, and allows users to customise their schedules according to how many days they are visiting, and what they want to see.

According to a description on Google Labs, the search engine’s experimental playground: “City Tours helps you identify points of interest and plan multi-day trips to most major cities. You just specify the location of your hotel and the length of your trip and City Tours will map out an itinerary for you.”
