<strong>Tips for working as a free tour guide</strong>

Tips for working as a free tour guide

  • 2024-03-072025-04-02

Whether you’re a brand-new freelance tour guide or have already been working with this for quite some time, carrying out the best at all times is vital to your success as a tour guide. Here are some doable information that people can use in working being a free tour guide.

1.       Always plan ahead

Prepare what you will say in advance. You may not have enough time to cover or show every single historic or attraction site in the city, so try to chart your path ahead and make a list of what you should add.

2.       Engage your guests

No body likes a grumpy or frowning tour guide. Know how to read each human body signals. Add humor, tell a punchline, funny stories about a place. Always leave an opening for questions to receive some feedback from your guests.

3.       Do your research

It is likely that you are working as a tour guide in a city that you are already well-acquainted with. Irrespective, there always is a thing to take. Research on the internet for fun facts about your city.

4.        Know your audience

When you are aware of your audience then you can give them the personal tour. When you’re signing up you can ask for details such as job occupation or which part of the world they are from so you can have an understanding of who you would be chatting to.

5.       Follow-up after the tour

Enhance reputation and develop customer relationships by following up after tour. Just a simple A thank you email is enough.  You may also use the chance to have them rate your tour and a questionnaire that requests areas that should be improved upon.
