I hope you realize that you need to be licensed to be a tour guide. You can find yourself in serious poo if you are nailed by the authorities.

Dear Sunday Morning,

I am just use my spare time to do the free guide, and don't charge any thing from the tourist, do you think this is still against the regulation?

I even pay the transportation fee by myself. hehe

I am not the authorities, but I would think you would still have to be registered in order to avoid the problem of possibly giving misinformation to your charges. I no little about being a tour guide except for my relatives when they come here. It might be a good idea to contact them to confirm. Then, you have your bases all cover (as well as your butt!)

Good luck = when preparation meets opportunity.



Well done Paul!
