« Professional yet fun-loving « Positive and infectious energy « Confident and outgoing « Open-minded and approachable « Disciplined and forward-thinking « Resourceful and quick-thinking Candidates are chosen following background checks, two rounds of interviews, 25 hours of classroom training and 50 hours of practical training where candidates shadow a senior Tour Leader.

Their job is to accompany your group 24/7 and bring your itinerary to life*, including:

« Guiding your group through the ebb and flow of your itinerary « Assisting chaperones with head counts and bed checks « Safeguarding your group through busy streets and activity sites « Responding to emergencies and coordinating on-site support « Keeping your students engaged with stories, jokes, song and games )(()(

* Please note that when our Tour Leaders are not available, we use third-party Guide Agencies that are strictly vetted by our Operations department to ensure your experience is just as fun, enriching and safe.

32 JUMPSTREET.COM/TOUR-LEADERS They are always so caring, funny, energetic, and willing to go the extra distance. And they contribute to the fond memories our students retain later on. I saw a former student recently who has since graduated from college, and she asked me if we ever needed adult chaperones for the trip to Québec, because she wanted to go again!
