You can use the API for this site . Apparently the free version allows up to 1000 requests per day. With PHP, the code can be quite simple:

$ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
$details = json_decode(file_get_contents("http://ipinfo.io/{$ip}/json"));
var_dump($details);

The result is something like:

object(stdClass)#1 (7) {
  ["ip"]=> string(13) "..."
  ["hostname"]=> string(11) "No Hostname"
  ["city"]=> string(8) "Curitiba"
  ["region"]=> string(6) "Parana"
  ["country"]=> string(2) "BR"
  ["loc"]=> string(17) "..."
  ["org"]=> string(30) "AS18881 TELEFÔNICA BRASIL S.A"
}
