TOUR/JAB Story
On your trips your always wanted to find out more about these new places. Most of the time you sign up for available tours. While there have been some exceptions, on most we found the following problems:
*You must be on the Tour Guide’s schedule, not your own.
*Often it is hard to understand the Tour Guide, or TG, because of language difference or an accent.
*Most often you are with a large group and unless you stood close to the TG you cannot hear what is being said. This problem is augmented by traffic noise and other conditions of the environment you happen to be in.
*You can’t stop for a beer or anything to drink along the way no matter how thirsty you may be.
*All too often, the TG’s presentation is boring – and more importantly they really don’t know what they are talking about. I often know more about the things we are looking at then they do, because I did my research before the trip.
*The TG always takes you to their friend’s souvenir shop in the middle of the tour to buy something that they get a kickback on. And even though you don’t want to buy anything, you must wait to hear the rest of the tour. Wait until a couple old ladies finally decide on a handful of cheap souvenirs.
*Their walking tours are in one direction, leaving you someplace in the city other than where you started. So finding your way back to your hotel is a challenge.
