Get to Know the Guides!

Our guides at Like A Local Tours are more than just walking encyclopedias. They are part entertainer, part concierge, part stand-up comic, part friend, and whatever else you might need on tour!  Our tour guides bring destinations to life through the art of storytelling and leave lasting impressions with top-notch customer service. We asked a few of our guides some of the biggest questions they are asked on tour. We love how unique each of their answers are! Part of what sets our guides apart here at Like A Local is their individual personality and their own perspectives they bring to the tours they give. Take a chance to get to know a bit more about some of the shining faces you’ll see while out on tour!
