The tour can be embarked on in exchange for a [[Nook Miles Ticket]] by speaking to [[Orville]] at the [[airport]].

Once the player leaves to go home the island can never be revisited as, according to Wilbur, the map with the island's coordinates is destroyed for security reasons. In actuality, the islands are randomly generated from templates each time they are visited and deleted once the player leaves, so care must be taken to ensure no wanted items are left behind as they will be permanently lost. The player is free to do as they wish on the island as any changes will not affect future island visits. | |

If the player cannot obtain the resources needed to make tools, they can purchase tools from Wilbur in exchange for Nook Miles. A [[vaulting pole]] and a [[ladder]] are the most crucial tools to have, as much of the islands are entirely inaccessible without these tools. |

Every island always contains a dock, a simple workbench for [[crafting]], rocks, and beaches on the left and right sides containing palm trees and shells. Many of the islands will contain flowers, which is usually the same native flower as the player's town. A [[Note-in-a-bottle]] may be found washed ashore in the sand, and there is a chance for [[fossils]] to be buried. Each island that features regular non-fruit-bearing [[tree]]s will have a least one that contains a [[Wasp nest]] and one with a [[Furniture]] leaf. The fruit-bearing trees most often bear the same fruit as the player's town. |

Potential [[villager]]s can appear when visiting the tour islands, and they can be asked to move to the player's own island as a resident. Initially these villagers will always be either [[lazy]], [[normal]] or [[peppy]]; once a villager of a given type has been invited, only villagers of the remaining type(s) will appear. Should a tourist be invited to become a resident, they will not move to the island until 3 new housing plots are prepared for [[Tom Nook]]. | Potential [[villager]]s can appear when visiting the tour islands, and they can be asked to move to the player's own island as a resident.

The player will then be able to purchase housing plots to place around town. From this point, villagers of every personality will begin appearing on the islands, if and only if an open plot is available (including if a plot is opened up by a villager moving away). Once invited, the villager will occupy the oldest-placed housing plot the next day. |
