Travel agencies are urgently recruiting foreign language tour guides

In the past six months, the continuous recovery of the inbound tourism market has made the shortage of tour guides in multiple languages more and more obvious. Some tour guides who had changed careers have begun to return to the front line of leading tours.

The reporter learned that the income of the tour guide is mainly determined by multiplying the daily salary of the tour by the number of days leading the group, and the contracted tour guide of the travel agency will have a small amount of basic salary. In addition, there is an occasional gratuity and service charge during the reception. In the interview, some tour guides and travel agency leaders told reporters that the daily salary of foreign language tour guides in Shanghai is relatively stable, and with the recent increase in passenger flow, the monthly income has also increased to a certain extent.

At present, many travel agencies are optimistic about the huge potential of the future inbound tourism market, and have increased business adjustment and layout. Taking a tourism company in Shanghai as an example, the company has about 100 full-time tour guides, of which about one-third are foreign-language tour guides. In order to cope with the current shortage of foreign language tour guides and adapt to new market changes, the company cooperates with the tour guide service center under the local tourism industry association on the one hand to borrow experienced tour guides to solve urgent needs; On the other hand, it has also strengthened communication with some tourism colleges to recruit and train some younger and more skilled multilingual tour guides.
