Dear Sir/Madam,
I am planning to go on

the seven – day tour of Marrakech advertised in your brochure. I hope you will be able to answer a few questions for me.
Firstly, could I please book a single room? I am coming on the tour alone and I would not like to share a hotel room with another person. Secondly, I would like you to tell me which two meals the price includes. Will we have breakfast and lunch in the hotel and pay for our own dinner? Thirdly, I hope the local guides speak English. I am afraid I cannot speak any foreign languages. Finally, could you also tell me how much the excursion package will cost?
I look forward to hearing from you at easiest convenience.

Yours faithfully,
Rebecca Burns

In the main body, (paragraphs 2-4), we ask questions about the information we need. We can use Firstly, Secondly, Finally, etc, to introduce each paragraph. In the last paragraph, we usually say we hope to hear from the person soon. We end our letter with Yours faithfully, and our full name.
