CIRCULAR TOUR PUZZLE
DETAILED ANSWER
The puzzle is to find a circular route through all the towns (marked with letters in circles) following only the lines with arrows.

In this series of pages you will be guided through the solution to the puzzle.

We will start by noticing that each town has exactly two links to neighbouring towns so if we can show that one of these links is obligatory, the other link of the two can be removed from the puzzle. The next page illustrates this.
