It is also important that the guide knows the practical features of the services provided by their colleagues in the receiving chain. For example, work the front desk can be complemented with the guide if you know and respect each other's work.

A good guide should be able to captivate his audience while presenting a variety of illustrative and reference topics. The guide is also the "executor" Visitors Program teacher. All that is mentioned as "included" in the program must be fully implemented to avoid complaints. So adjust your explanations to the inclement accurate opening and closing of attractions such as museums, cathedrals and national parks, taking into account the time for meals en route and the toiletries tourists.

There are guides who specialize in urban tourism and contemplative, others in Eco tourism; others are guides instructors in mountaineering, naturism, diving, fishing, water skiing or snow, and bird watching.

The "courier" also plays a critical panel as cultural interpreter as a mediator between culture and the receiving station. This mediating role is particularly useful in preventing or clarifies misunderstandings or friction that may arise with native approval. The work of the guide-mail also requires the mastery of language and the ability to treat customers with sensitivity and tact in dealing with a complaint. They are also an important factor in the task of persuading tourists to acquire additional services such as optional excursions.
