Be a Better Guide - Free Online Tour Guide Training at www.beabetterguide.com Leading a tour that has lots of participation is one of the best ways to keep your guests engaged and interested. This week’s tour guide training from Be a Better Guide: How to make tours more interactive. Keeping the attention of your group is one of your biggest challenges as a tour guide, tour leader or tour director. On any given tour the guide is doing the majority of the speaking, and so it is especially important to think of creative ways to get your audience to participate. You should never treat your tour like a lecture and even the most powerful and interesting tour guides on the planet, will always benefit by having some interactivity and group participation. In this week’s tour guide training, I share some of my favorite tour experiences, and the creative ways in which they engaged those of us on tour. These insights come from a tour leader in the Netherlands, a nature walk on the Galapagos, and a beetle-chewing, seventy year old in a cultural centre in rural Vietnam. And don’t worry - there are pictures of all three! As you know, I fully love the idea of tour guides coming together from every corner of the globe and sharing their best practices. After watching the video, share your most memorable tour experiences in the comments below, so we can all get better at creating, fun interactive tours! -Kelsey T
