About Lesson
Putting information together for a tour commentary entails the same methods for arranging the tour schedule in a logical manner. It entails the following steps:
- Get a map of the tourist site and plot the location of all the tourist attractions that the tour group is going to visit.
- Plot locations of toilets, food stores, souvenir shops, security office, and clinics.
- Identify a starting point and a meet-up point at the end of the tour.
- Think a logical arrangement for visiting the tourist attractions such that you will visit the closest one to the starting point first and then work your way through until you reach the meet-up point, making sure that no effort and time are wasted because of crisscrossing paths and backtracking. Another consideration is the logical flow of a story. If your commentary will focus for example on the life of Jose Rizal who was detained I Intramuros, then the flow of the tour commentary should follow the flow of events from the time Jose Rizal was born to the time he was detained and eventually executed. Note the significance of these events on the countries historical and liberation. Hence, the tourist attractions that you will visit within Intramuros should follow this flow as well. There are nonetheless many other interesting stories on which the flow of the Intramuros tour can focus on, such as universities, dinning, arts, culture, and religion.
