Tour Escort
All escorted tours are accompanied by a tour escort, sometimes called a tour conductor, tour manager, tour director, or tour courier. Although many escorts know a great deal about social, political, historical, and physical features of the places on the itinerary, their primary responsibility is to ensure the smooth operation of the tour. They act as the tour operator’s representatives and must be capable of making quick decisions, if necessary. The tour escort must be patient, adaptable, imaginative, good-humoured, tolerant and must pay attention even to the smallest details.
Any tour escort should know the contents of the brochure used to promote the tour – the itinerary and its features. An escort needs to prepare even more carefully if the tour is not one of a regular series, or if it is the first of a series of tours. He or she must be able to answer any question that may arise on the tour.
The escort should have the list of all the tourists, known as the “manifest”, and a rooming list indicating singles, doubles, twins and triples. Tourists with disabilities or special dietary needs should be noted, and the escort should check that necessary arrangements have been made for these special needs with hotels and restaurants.
