I can listen to Rick Steves for hours! What a pleasure. The interviewer was boring, was asking questions, but wasn’t able to make a conversation

Lately, I have found myself dreaming over past adventures. My feet yearns for the journey ahead while my eyes imagines the views. Today, I may be sitting at my desk, but in my mind I am somewhere else.

Rick is just an absolute pleasure. One of the greatest teachers and communicators of travel

Such an inspiring talk! Im a tour guide in Buenos Aires, i agree in every word he says, it' s not an easy job to be a tour guide, it is hard but challenging, as he says about feedback and to be much better....in spite of my 20 years experience, i want to be better tour guide, much better tomorrow. This was great!

One of the things I love to say on my tours when discussing war, corruption, bigotry and other things from the past is “boy, I am sure glad we don’t have any of THAT today…” I hope I can get people to see what past mistakes we are making once again, while finding a humorous way to convey it.

The tour guide of all your guides has spoken and I was carefully listening to every word. I'm a tour guide too and he's right you really need to be constantly learning.

Rick Steves is an inspiration!!! Love his attitude and intentions.

Started at the Stanley hotel as a tour guide. At first it started as a job and before I knew it I became extremely passionate about the entire history of the place.

This is gold! Im currently in south africa on a nature guide education. Im from Sweden and that graduation thing is very funny haha. Its the biggest thing happening to most peoples life. Like the biggest step. As he said. Breaking away from childhood and tumbling into adulthood. Im glad we have that and I graduate this upcoming june! 🎉🇸🇪☀️🥂

This video is indeed a bible for the tour guide industry

Excellent talk.

This man, is on another level! I speak as a national moroccan tour guide.

What a wonderful discussion. As a music teacher I try to make those connections with the music and history. As a trip leader of students I do the same thing when I take them to various places. I don't know how people travel and not find the connections, the bigger picture. Thank you.

A good man. Thank you for the wisdom.

An entertaining guide Be like a teacher Smart use of tourists time Sharing of more experiences in less time Leadership Ask for feedbacks Provide cultural experiences and handover situation for their own conclusions according their life story Celebrate life by learning

Nicely said. I am a guide well I think, or trying to be one for last 18 years . I totally agree with you that one has to have passion .. I am from Bangladesh and get tourist or I rather say travelers and when connecting with locals and culture together and I find myself in class room where I can design my own way teaching , I LOVE MY JOB

I needed this! Next trip beautiful, fascinating Croatia for me. 14 days with a Dutch Group.

Thank you very much for this instructional video!!! I really appreciate it! 👍❤️🌹

Thank you for sharing

Thanks I am a Namibian tour guide trainee and I like your teaching

Mr.Rick Steves,I am sure you must have read many good books on history and geography before travelling to certain places but as a tour guide you are always well equipped in your knowledge of the place you would visit and could explain about your travel experiences better than any historian as " Seeing is believing " ! 😃

Thank you for this amazing knowledge

This is a deep deep discussion.

Thank you for sharing, I’m a tour guide in Morocco, I would like one day if you could travel to Africa or Arab country and guide in there or go on a tour then you will have another perspective about all what you said in this video What you shared is good to take points from it but mostly you talk between US and Europe and Africa, Arab countries is totally different.

Take note very yout work , I'm appreciated to hearing from you guys , thanks 🙏❤🎉🎉🎉🎉

Thanks for your advice

Awesome info, thanks!

I want to be a tour guide here in El Salvador. I've been here for about 6 months now and I really want to take this step.

Great Tour Guide

My favourite Hollywood movie of all time thank you for making this video 🇮🇳

This was very insightful and inspirational :) I'm looking at becoming a tour guide myself. Been studying wine,spirits,and beer for about 10 years with my current job just cautious about taking the plunge into a new setting. This being my dream job I have alot of excitement and anxiety about rhe position since It's all so new

It’s wonderful dialogue,absolutely if anyone want to hire in tour guide job he should engage with a people also he should have a good communication skills

I want become the tour guide. I will learn with cuture and speech. Thank you so much

Super.

Nice.

Using this for an audition as I made the choice that the character is like a tour guide

Thank you, very very interesting, I would like to become a tour guide, but I am afraid of feedbacks, I think I really hate them because I am very insecure, but listening at you i understand that it could be a good opportunity to improve myself in every way.

Nice 👌

Wonderful lesson! You are great but you can be better

❤

Interesting talk, experienced travel and insightful comments but thinking yourself as a "global citizen" is the ultimate luxury belief, that belief is subsidized by others often in blood.

Is it me or the interviewer asked the same question twice in the beginning?

wow

can i know is it this a forum

Y’all I’m cryingggggggg i have been trying to figure out what I want to do for a living with my life as I love so many things and and aspects of working with people of different ages and arts and everything and at the same time! I have such passion for people and the world and learning and I went on a travel abroad trip this past January which was absolutely incredible. I’ve also been trying to find something that feels like my old job which was mc-ing services for elementary students and adults and I feel like being a tour guide is a dream I am so excited to pursue. Also listening to them in this video speak has been so comforting and I feel like this makes me excited to wake up tomorrow. Thank you guys thank you so much for making this and being you! I’m still trying to figure out if I should go to school (online probably bc I work at Starbucks rn!) for psychology or art history as I think both apply to being a tour guide (I just need to decide if I would like to pursue being a therapist or an art teacher/therapist at the same time) thank you!!🤍 okay online they also have a tourism management degree so I might do that one because I’m sure it would help but reading it’s descriptions it seems more about the management than the tour guide so I’m not quite sure about that oneeeeeeeeee

Lol bro is spittin with the Rousseau…. Social…ya know, ISM. Community…ism…. Id tour with this guy hahah

Its expensive to travel and it pollutes...so how you address these facts ?

Lately, I have found myself dreaming over past adventures. My feet yearns for the journey ahead while my eyes imagines the views. Today, I may be sitting at my desk, but in my mind I am somewhere else.

Great Tour Guide
