I am very impressed with this bookIt is the best ethnography of tour guide training and performance to date. Indeed its probing analyses and its many comments make a great contribution to our understanding of contemporary international and intercultural tourism. It is very well written and superbly referenced.A" -Nelson Graburn, University of California, Berkeley - a clear, well-organized interesting piece of original research on two exceptionally interesting and productively comparable destinations. It is well placed within the tourism studies literature.A" -Sally Ann Ness, University of California, Riverside
