We schedule our tours through a program called Top Achievers. Guides who are a qualified Top Achiever will receive priority in scheduling based on their availability and will be scheduled for more tours. The remainder of guides will be evenly scheduled after all Top Achievers have been filled in, similarly based on their availability.
Guides who achieve Top Achiever status may be eligible for special perks and recognition within the company. This programme aims to highlight and reward those who consistently uphold our high standards of service and professionalism.
