4. What’s your favorite tour guiding story?
Once I had a passenger, who’s name is Alfred. He was with me in a group, and I could remember him pretty well. Well! One day I was at the airport, waiting for a group and saw him coming out of the passengers area. I looked at him, same guy, even the same old bag.
However even though I looked for him and knew his actual tour guide, I could not reach him to say hi.
Later on in the trip (And Costa Rica is so small that this happens very often) I saw the guide and group on a road. We stopped and from car to car, I told the guide that one of his passengers had been with me in a previous tour.
The guy heard and said “No, I was never with you… It was my twin brother Alfred!”
And we talked and I sent my regards to his brother and everything… But yeah, bag and everything, they are twins.
