Robert Allen — tour guide
§1. Seven years ago, I was studying Tourism at college, but needed to find a part-time
job as my course was rather expensive. After considering several options, I trained to
become a weekend tour guide in my home city — Chicago. This involved taking visitors
around the city, and I was surprised to discover how much I enjoyed giving those tours.
I got to see the city that I’d been living in my whole life through the eyes of tourists,
and it felt like a new experience every time!
§ 2. After finishing my studies, I decided to go into tour guiding full-time. Although I
thought it would be quite simple, in fact when I researched what I had to do, I found out
that to get a licence as a full-time tour guide I needed to know a lot more than I’d learnt
so far. All city guides have to be able to answer hundreds of questions about the city,
covering everything from local architecture and history to the rules of public transport.
After several challenging but interesting months, I gained my tour-guide qualification
and registered as an independent tour guide.
§ 3. Tour guiding isn’t just about knowing historical facts or making sure you don’t lose
anyone from your group in the crowds. There are many other necessary skills. You
should be able to be entertaining and tell interesting stories, and above all, you need to
be able to react to changing situations, for example, if a place that you thought was
open is actually closed when you arrive, or a route changes. Tourists don’t want to hear
what the problems are or that they’re missing out on something, they just want to
enjoy a well-organised tour.
§ 4. I need to make sure visitors happy with my tours, otherwise they could post a
negative review online. Like most tour guide, I realize that these reviews important, as
good reviews attract more customers. That’s why making tours fun and stress-free is
essential. For me, the enthusiasm and energy I put into my job means that my reviews
are usually very good, and my tours are often recommended to other visitors, coming
to Chicago.
