THE EASITOUR STORY

Easitour Global is a leading provider of guided city tours in the world's most remarkable places. We help travelers meet great new people and see exciting new places around the world.

Our guides have a passion for ‘boutique’ small group tours (2-10 people) that increase enjoyment and deliver great value to travelers. Seeing the sights is great, but experiencing a place with a friendly guide who has insider knowledge and a passion for her city can really bring the place to life.

Great people make the journey that much more satisfying. Calor humano (human warmth) is the essence of what we do, and here at Easitour we don't deal with customers and employees, we deal with friends.

Like you, we are also keen travelers. This passion for great experiences enables us to know exactly what travelers want to see and do. For Easitour Global, great adventures aren’t just about the journey and the destination- they’re about the people.

Easitour works with friendly, talented guides who have perfected the art of creating exceptional experiences. Each itinerary is carefully chosen and planned, so travelers don’t have to worry about a thing. We sweat the details so travelers can enjoy a totally hassle-free experience and make the most out of every moment.

During their tours, travelers will hear stories and see secret places that aren’t in any guidebook.  The insider knowledge  possessed by our guides as well as their ability to curate experiences according to travelers' exact interests means travelers get to really see and connect with the places they visit.

We love bringing travelers great guided city tours, and we are excited to work with a talented, well-organized writer to create experiences customers will remember for a lifetime.

HOW WE CAN HELP YOU SUCCEED  

Are you a positive, enthusiastic, person? Would you consider yourself well-organized, efficient with details and very determined? Is your English really good, and natural sounding?

If so, you might be interested in helping our growing travel company by helping us find contact information (telephone numbers, Skype name, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, email) for tour guides around the world. These individual freelance guides will be contacted by an Easitour representative, and we will entice them to sign up with our site.

If you have a university degree and lots of Internet experience,  then you will likely do well at the following:

TASKS   
  • Do lots of Internet searches and research to acquire contact information (telephone number, Skype, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, email) for tour guides
  * Add contact information for each guide to a CRM system
  • Track email and telephone communications, and follow up with tour guides to answer their questions about how to use our site.
 
 If you are interested in improving your research and follow-up skills with a growing company who cares about people and their aspirations, then we would love to hear from you!

Regards,

Dan Hodgins
