Impact of AI on this Job

AI will likely enhance travel guides' roles by automating logistics like itinerary planning, real-time translation, and providing access to extensive information. This allows guides to focus more on personalized experiences, cultural storytelling, and handling unforeseen issues, rather than administrative tasks. However, AI-powered virtual tours could also create competition for physical guides.
