Ecotourism Guide

An ecotourism guide leads visitors through natural places, such as trails, wildlife areas, rivers, coastlines, and parks, while teaching them about the ecosystem around them. Your day might start before sunrise, checking weather, gear, and trail conditions, then briefing a group on safety and etiquette. Out in the field you point out plants, birds, and geology, answer questions, keep everyone safe, and make sure the group leaves the place as they found it. Afterward there is paperwork, equipment care, and sometimes reporting wildlife sightings.
