\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

While Panama has emerged as one of the most important destination spots in Central America, one of the biggest down falls is the tour guide service sector.\u00a0 This too will change as the opportunity exists for operators to move in and capitalize on the situation.<\/p>\n

Tour operators do not have sufficient numbers of personnel who are trained as tourist guides tourists, nor is there an official organization to certify them.<\/p>\n

Tourism<\/span> businesses believe it is of the utmost importance that they have informed and personable tourist guides, as in the end they are the people who spend the most time with tourists.<\/p>\n

Enrique Pesantez explains in his article in Prensa.com that “… many are not aware that this service is the face of the company, the image of our country, and is part of tourist’s recognition for the work performed.”<\/p>\n

“There are guides who make a living from this profession, they are very well organized and have impeccable reputations in that every company knows that their services carry a seal of approval. There are others though, who know their job but their personalities do not fit the bill. There are others that are used because no one else is available, and you just have to hope for the best”.<\/p>\n

According to Pesantez, personality, versatility, attitude and knowledge in one person will result in a guide being requested by all our companies, of course, their income will be very interesting because they also dominate the art of the tip, which in many cases is a very important part of this economy.<\/p>\n

“If they speak several languages ??or only English, believe me, they will find work for sure …” says Pesantez, who is inviting those with ambition and who are looking for new horizons to be trained and involved in a business with a great future .<\/p>\n
