Trip Leader Europe in London

What are you going to do:

The role of a Trip Leader

Our trip leaders are responsible, together with their follow crew, for the day-to-day running of a Topdeck trip. This involves:

• informing passengers about Europe, including country and city introductions as well as conducting driving or walking tours;
• liaising with suppliers;
• managing trip expenses;
• socializing with passengers and providing support where needed;
• initiating group activities; and
• providing 'inside tips' to passengers and assisting them to plan their own free time.

As a trip leader you are at times an educator, a friend, a counselor, a parent, a guidebook, an events planner and always a positive influence on the group.
