At ContactYourGuide, we initially began by collaborating with guides we know personally. Currently, our dedicated team is diligently exploring opportunities worldwide to expand our services by partnering with exceptional guides. When we identify top-tier guides, we actively encourage them to apply and create an account within our system. Upon receiving their application, our rigorous selection process includes interviews to assess their language proficiency and suitability. We also conduct routine screening checks to maintain the highest standards of service quality.
We conduct the following before we confirm the guide’s listing in our system:
For instance, if you have three different destinations in the same country and wish to hire the same guide for all of them, the answer is yes, you can! This is possible as long as both the guide and the travelers mutually agree on their plans and terms.
In such a scenario, we will request you to make the full payment for the entire tour upfront, and we will securely hold these funds in trust until the guide successfully completes each tour. After the tours have been successfully conducted, we will then proceed with the payment to the guide.
