EMBED YOUR TOUR ON FACEBOOK
To embed your tour in your profile you would need to add an iframe or HTML code.
At present Facebook does not permit this.
The solution is to add an app to your Facebook page which allows you to add tabs.
You can then embed the tour in a tab.
What follows are step by step instructions to allow you to install the app and embed your tour.
Open Facebook in a browser.
Open a second tab.
Go to https://apps.facebook.com/iframehost-a/
Follow the installation prompts.
