INDIVIDUAL ASSIGNMENT:

1. Tourist guides and tour guides are professionals in the hospitality and tourism sectors
who lead tourists around interesting locations. Tour guides can take groups or individuals
on excursions outside as well as through historical sites, museums, and other locations.
Tour guides typically have pertinent cultural, historical, and practical information that
they may impart to travelers. To provide visitors with a memorable experience,
businesses and organizations frequently employ guides. These individuals may be
exceptionally knowledgeable and skilled in the place, culture, or leisure activity of their
choice.

Around the world, a variety of tour guides are employed. Here are a few categories of typical
tour guides:

Historical Guide:
A historical guide shows visitors historical sights such as battles, ruins, temples, and other
significant historical locations. Customers on these trips frequently wish to understand more
about the local history. Historical guides may offer intriguing knowledge about the region and
historical events that might attract tourists, whether they work for the site directly, for a bigger
tour company, or on their own.

Adventure Guide:
Adventure guides take tourists on adventures that they would not be able to take on on their own.
Adventure guides frequently possess the practical expertise, abilities, and equipment required by
clients to enjoy an activity or sport, in addition to being knowledgeable about pertinent facts and
navigational information.

Museum Guide:
By providing background information about exhibitions, pieces of art, and relics, museum guides
strive to provide guests with informative information. To supervise visitors and make the
museum experience more engaging and participatory, museums may hire museum guides.

Nature Guide:
Tourists are typically led by nature guides to interesting outdoor locations. Nature guides could
offer walking or hiking trips in wilderness regions with a focus on geology, ornithology, and
ecology. They are often less extreme than adventure guides.

City Guide:
A city guide may conduct tours of a city on foot, by bicycle, bus, rickshaw, or in a car. City
guides may highlight important historical or cultural locations, eateries or pubs, or noteworthy
buildings. A city guide often has extensive knowledge of the place where they work, enabling
them to provide tourists with useful information.

Park Guide:
In theme parks, zoos, state parks, and national parks, park guides may help visitors. A park guide
may take groups through the park while pointing out significant sights and giving visitors to the
park information.

2. To correctly organize your travels and avoid unpleasant shocks when visiting a new
location, a tour guide is essential. They are necessary since they aid in organizing,
managing, and planning the entire vacation for you, allowing you to focus just on taking
in the scenery and leaving the rest to them. Tourist guides and tour guides are
professionals in the hospitality and tourism sectors who lead tourists around interesting
locations. Tour guides can take groups or individuals on excursions outside as well as
through historical sites, museums, and other locations. Travelers can benefit from the
pertinent cultural, historical, and practical information that tour guides have to offer.
There are several possibilities for guides. They could desire employment at a castle, a
museum, or another setting of such kind. As an alternative, individuals can work outside
as a city, archeological, or wildlife guides. The planning and organization of tours is the
guides' responsibility in all of these roles. Their primary means of ensuring that their
visitors have a wonderful time is communication. It's critical to be conscious of visitor
cultural differences and to be mindful of potential sources of noise that might obstruct
interactions with visitors. Amuse guests by sharing amusing and intriguing tales, and deal
with their concerns and demands promptly.

3. In my opinion, AI Robots can replace the role of tourist guides in the tourism sector.
Recent years have seen growing competition for guides. Robots are being introduced to
replace artificial services as products of artificial intelligence. Robotic tour guides, for
instance, are capable of understanding many different languages, including regional
dialects, which demonstrates AI's edge over human guides. The historical context,
specifics, and other elements of certain beautiful locales or cultural artifacts can be
accurately stored in the artificial intelligence's memory. The required content may be
pulled out by contacting the appropriate program when someone consults with the robot
or when the robot guides are getting ready to introduce the scenic area, and then the
content can be output in the form of audio by using the adjustment command of the
controller. Moreover, anyone with a smartphone may use the internet and mobile
technologies to navigate oneself across a city or area without needing to look up a single
piece of information. People may easily begin the trip by downloading an app. Since
many years ago, guidebooks have provided written information on cities and other
landmarks. Guides must constantly persuade visitors to tour the attractions with them
rather than on their own to stay one step ahead of this (indirect) rivalry. Artificial
intelligence is becoming more prevalent in the tourist industry every day. The tourist
sector is anticipated to grow to unprecedented heights in the future as a result of the
expanding application of cutting-edge technologies. A new study predicts that between
2010 and 2023, the worldwide travel technology market, which includes artificial
intelligence, would expand by more than 9%. The successful performance of the travel
and tourism sector is one of the key drivers of the anticipated development. However, the
use of cutting-edge and revolutionary technologies like machine learning and artificial
intelligence will result in substantial changes for the industrial sector. The landscape of
the sector and the procedures followed by tourist enterprises can be shaped by
technological considerations. Numerous new employment will be generated as a result of
the expansion of AI's general applications in the travel and tourism sector, according to a
Forbes article. The aviation and tourist industries are expected to undergo a significant
amount of retraining between 2018 and 2022 so that human factors can adjust to the
changing technical infrastructure. By the year 2022, it is predicted that over 58 million
new employees would have been added. Such a planned modification could assist in
addressing the current unemployment issue.
