Ideal for those who need to better understand the dynamics of a group tour, either from the viewpoint of creating the itinerary or from the perspective of actually leading the tour. Filled with lots of examples, the course follows a progression from "Understanding Groups", to "Communication and Problem Solving" and to "Managing Tour Groups". A final assignment ties the course together. Also, see "Tour Design/Tour Guide Bundle" below.

This thorough treatment of putting together a group tour begins by introducing the idea of & explaining the need for group tours, and the trend toward niche market tours in the next decade. Chapters provide information on matching clients, determining & responding to expectations, developing the itinerary, budgeting & costing the tour, legal matters and a final detailed tour plan assignment.
