English for Tourism & Hospitality (107) by Prof. Adel AlSheikh

9. The Knowledge Of A Local
Anyone can memorize and recite facts. Though it’s not a
requirement, some of the best guides are locals themselves.
What’s great about this quality is that in addition to the planned
facts and statistics, they can bring their own knowledge,
experience and personal anecdotes to the tour. This can make
a tour feel particularly special for guests who are looking for a
genuine experience outside the typical tourist attractions.

10. Passion For Their City
Last but certainly not least, true passion and interest can take a
tour from typical to outstanding. Anyone can point and recite
facts, but those who really love what they do can pass that
passion onto tourists and locals to make them feel it too. Plus
those with passion for their city, bring their own experience to
the tours they give.
