TOUR GUIDE

Heidi Friederich, a tour guide for more than twenty years, has led trips to France, Germany, the Netherlands, Ireland, and many cities in the United States and Canada.

“To be a good tour guide you need to be organized and flexible. Unexpected things always seem to happen and you must be able to react immediately and solve the problem at once. You also need a good sense of humor so that you can laugh at these disasters later!

“You also need to love being with people for an extended time; often you are together with your group all day and evening. It is tiring but very rewarding when you see how much people appreciate all that you have done for them to make their trip enjoyable.”
