Description
What job involves travelling to an exotic location, organising a dentist for a client's broken tooth, or gently breaking the news of a family death? All in a day's work for a tour guide. Travel with the Dream Makers presents an intriguing behind-the-scenes account of the little known world of tour guiding. Tour guides deliver the promise; they bring to life the travel dreams of their clients. In Travel with the Dream Makers, author Lynette Hinings-Marshall shines a light on the role of tour guides. A series of vignettes, written by some of the industry's most experienced tour guides, recount delightful stories of everything from flying zebras to the drama of a flight grounded by an insurgent guerilla organization. Whether an armchair traveller, adventurer or potential tour guide this enjoyable book holds something for everyone, although perhaps it should come with a warning: Beware, this book may result in an irresistible urge to plan a trip!
