It's nicer to replace that ShowGraph expression by the following 
expression, which shows the tour evolving in time:

    AnimateGraph[g, path, HighlightedEdgeColors -> Red]

(By the way, Mathematica will seem to complain about the option 
HighlightedEdgeColors -> Red there by highlighting it in red, as if it 
were a syntax error.  But of course it's not.  Evidently it's a 
SyntaxInformation oversight.)
