Participate in regular training sessions and team meetings to refine storytelling techniques and operational excellence.

4. Team Collaboration & Operations

Work closely with dispatch and operations teams to ensure seamless tour logistics.
Communicate effectively with other guides and team members to share insights and best practices.
Assist with basic vehicle maintenance and cleanliness (for vehicle-based tours) to ensure every aspect of the tour experience is top-notch.

Qualifications

1+ years of experience as a tour guide, performer, teacher, or public speaker (preferred but not required).
Passion for storytelling, performance, and creating unforgettable guest experiences.
Strong interpersonal skills and the ability to engage with diverse audiences.
Knowledge of local history, culture, and landmarks (or a willingness to learn).
