5.0 out of 5 stars Good to learn the steps to put a tour together for group, June 15, 2007
This review is from: Career KNOWtes: Tour Operator (How to Have Fun and Make Money) (Paperback)
Not only to for start your own tour business. I use book to help start a day trip tour program for seniors at my adult care center early this summer. I organized a chinese-language tour to Las Vegas from Monterey Park, Ca. It worked. My first time organizing and leading a tour. Everyone fun. Good book for someone who need only basic tour planning and budgeting education. I do not recommend if you are in a tour college program to go work for bigger tour company.

1.0 out of 5 stars dont waste your money, September 15, 2008
This review is from: Career KNOWtes: Tour Operator (How to Have Fun and Make Money) (Paperback)
This was in no way worth any of the money I paid for. It gave general information on how to open a business. There was little to nothing discussed about the particulars of being a tour operator. And what was discussed was plain common sense. I have since purchased a number of books for a few dollars more that were light years better than this.
