Synopsis

Tour guiding is a well-established part of the entertainment profession. Its practitioners have evolved over the centuries, shifting from street theatre performers to companions for aristocrats exploring the brothels and antiquities of the ancient world.
As time went on, companies like Messrs Thomas Cook & Co employed hundreds of guides worldwide, confirming their place in the tourism industry. Yet, entertainment remains the key to delighting clients and ensuring a good tip.
