Looks at the laboratory of guided group tours 'hermetically sealed' - p311
Group tour is perfect in many ways
Comparison of closed and open-field groups - closed being the group tour

How the trip lends intself to recording the information naturally (like journal, postcards, etc)
Question what exact role the researcher assumes... pg 316
