M: We still have one more day to go before we return home. What will we see tomorrow?
J: no idea. We've enjoyed both the natural scenery and the city sights. What else is there to see?
M: what about a factory tour?
J: you mean visit a factory?
M: yes. I heard there's a lager motor company nearby whick open to the public every weekend. We can go to see how a car is manufactured and learn more about the automobile industry.
J: good idea! I've always been interested in that. How much is the entrance fee?
M: I'm not sure, but as far as I know, most factory tours are free. They are sponsored by the company providing the tour.
J: really? What do the companies do that for?
M: I believe most of them think of it as good public relations. They can promote their product and make their company better-known.
J: oh, isee. So factory tours are good for companies as well as visitors.
M: exactly.
J: do we need an appointment beforehand?
M: I'll call the tourist information centre to check.
