See The Sight Before Your Flight
Read about the 12 tourist photographer missions which start in Shoreside Vale and take Toni all across Liberty City.
A new mission type not previously seen in any of the other GTA games is unlocked once you reach Shoreside Vale after completing "Love On The Rocks" for Donald Love. You can start the missions by visiting the tourism booth near the subway entrance in front of the Francis International Airport.
Each time you start a mission - of which there are 12 to complete - a new tourist will be presented to Toni. They want to have their photo taken in front of a Liberty City landmark, but their flight home leaves soon so you need to get them there quickly.
The tourist destinations are all set in stone. They're not randomised, so you'll know exactly where you're going with our guide below. Before starting the mission, you should ideally bring a fast or durable bike with you. A PCJ-600 would be faster, but a Sanchez works well as you'll be doing a fair bit of off-road driving.
General Rules
Upon starting the mission, you'll need to get on your bike and speed the tourist to their destination of choice. When you arrive, they'll wander to their preferred photo location and provide you with their camera. You then need to take a couple of photos of them, ensuring you get them and the landmark in the shot. You receive a cash bonus for better photos, but at this point of the game a few hundred extra dollars isn't going to make a massive difference, so just focus on quantity over quality.
Throughout the mission time will count down. You'll need to get to the destination, take the photos and get the tourist back to the airport in that time. The best way to do this is to ensure you take shortcuts when possible.
When starting the mission, head down the stairs and you'll usually see a parked Taxi on the sidewalk. If you cut up the grassy hill behind this taxi and head through the trees, you can drive over a small wall which will let you onto the road right next to the bridge. This is a great shortcut, particularly for the destinations in Portland and Staunton, and you can use it coming back too.
Once the photos have been taken, you'll need to get the tourist back to the airport before the time runs out.
You don't have to complete all 12 missions in one go, each mission is independent so you can come back and start them whenever you like, but you will need to complete all 12 of them if you're aiming for 100% completion.

Rewards
