Sightseeing Tour Guide Jobs

Sightseeing tour guides are usually well versed in the areas to which they travel, and since destinations change frequently or even with every trip, guides must study continually in order to accurately provide narration. These are the most highly sought-after tour guide jobs, but they also demand the most competence and place the most responsibility on the part of the tour guide. While many companies provide their own training and don't necessarily hire experienced guides, these jobs are the most likely to require some kind of public relations or customer service experience.

One excursion guide described his experience:

"It's a great job if you like working with people and travel, and I had never been to Alaska, so the job was perfect. We give most of our tours to cruise passengers visiting Juneau. The tours are by coach and are about two hours long. I drove the bus and provided the narration, and I gave a little nature talk on plant life and glaciers. I also took a lot of pictures for the tour members. After a while I felt really comfortable and the tours were pretty easy to do. Best of all, though, is the fact that I'm in a beautiful part of the country and getting paid for it!"
