Abstract
This paper contains the design and implementation results of a package tour management application using a Geofence technology as well as the performance evaluation. This application ables the tour guide to monitor the tourist movement in real-time whether the tourists are inside the virtual polygonal Geofence set by the tour guide. Even when the tour is moving between travel destinations, a virtual circular Geofence can be set by the tour guide to monitoring the tourist movement while on the move. The application includes tour guide's and tourist's locations, schedule and participant management. To evaluate the performance, average response time and accuracy is measured, resulting in satisfactory performance. The average response time ranged from 0.0047 seconds to 7.3 seconds in various cases and for accuracy, it scored 100% in various cases. It is expected that implementing Geofence technology to package tour management applications will help tour guides to perform more productive package tours by reducing the burden of managing tourists.
