About Tour Guiding
A tour guide is somebody who interacts with the tourists during their stay in the target country,
makes sure they have good time, introduces the areas being visited,
helps them in any difficult situations, protects their rights,
makes the travel organization run smoothly, and is the person with the education
necessary to guide
and who behaves according to the ethical rules and standards.
A tour guide needs certain knowledge and abilities in order to

Tour Guiding is not a job with a high income Tour Guides frequently work very hard for what they earn Tour Guiding
has very long working hours is very often a seasonal job involves physical as well as mental work often has very little retirement security or health insurance
In order to be successful a tour guide needs to gain psychological satisfaction from the work
It is the tour guide who makes or breaks the tour
