As part of the team, you will be guiding travellers through Bengaluru and Mysuru. Some of the must-have Core/Key skills are
Engaging – Ability to hold the attention of your guests/travellers without being repetitive. Share information through illuminating and entertaining ways, rather than repeating a list of facts and instructions.
Patient – Answering questions you've already answered multiple times, you will show both competence and enthusiasm, to help your guest come to a satisfying conclusion to the question they had in mind.
Empathetic – Feel the Room – Your radar is always on to feel the room.
You should be able to put people at ease, reassuring them that they are in good hands and that they should try to have the best time possible.
Good Sense of Humour – A guide with a good sense of humour will increase the enjoyment of the tour and temper any tensions that may arise.
Energetic – Long days, large groups, physical activity, and nearly daily crisis management require a great deal of energy, both mental and physical.
Timely – Punctuality is a must-have quality. If you are not on time, that makes for unhappy travellers and frustrated co-guides.
Organised – The experience should feel seamless and effortless. Logistics should be nearly invisible to the eyes of the participants.
Keen interest in History and Culture – continuously learn about his/her destination. Look out for new experiences and share them with the team.
Knowledge of the local language (Kannada/Hindi)
An acute sense of direction
Work Experience
Prior work experience in the hospitality industry is preferred and not a must.
