Guided tours are interactive tours of a part of Wikipedia. Guided tours are meant to complement help pages, by showing users directly how to do something in a step-by-step way. This is a new software feature, so please be patient if you encounter bugs or other SNAFUs.
If you want to see what this feature looks like, you can try a simple test tour, or the getting started tour which walks through the mechanics of making an edit. For more information, see also the technical documentation and product documentation.
If you'd like to create a tour, see the write an on-wiki tour instructions. You'll need to be an administrator, as the code for on-wiki tours (as opposed to the built-in test and gettingstarted tours) lives in the MediaWiki: namespace.
