The tour guide is the professional in charge of monitoring, mentoring and transmit information to groups visiting the natural beauty of the country on tours (municipal, state or interstate) and international travel. Therefore, it is the guide to guide and promote the clearance and release of passengers and their baggage for loading and unloading terminals (sea, air, etc.); organize the day's activities, visits develop routes; meet the passengers and carry identification issued by Embratur. It is through the work of tour guide that visitors not only know new places, but also understand and therefore value the culture, way of life and customs of each city or country. That is, the guide is the host of the tourist, when the guide does a good job, it is sure that tourists will keep great memories of the place presented.
In the territory of the Geopark Araripe, some time self sustetável tourism practices and ecotourism happen. However, it was from the partnership with SENAC the technical training of tour guides started to happen. Therefore, it is of great relevance to the Geopark the presence of these professionals who make the "welcome" to the territory and the features to attract and expand the practice of tourism in the region, ensuring the return of these tourists. To talk better about it and emphasize that the State of Ceará is not only made of coastline is known as the Communications Team of the Araripe Geopark, spoke with one of the first guides formed by Senac, Jessica Pinheiro. Currently, she is a member of the Tourist Guides Association of Cariri. The most important excerpt from the chat follows in the next note.

Communication Team (CT): What drew your attention to the technical course in Tourism guide? And what importance this course for your professional life and relevance for the region?
Jessica Pinheiro AGTURC (JP): Well [laughs], I started the Technical Course in Tourism Guide soon after the end of the Geography course by URCA, saw the proposal of the course at Senac and found it interesting. From then on, I make the selection. I learned how to deal with the customer as well as various aspects of tourism, combining both theory and practice of the profession with technical visits, internships. We also learn a wide dimension of what Cariri that can be worked. Working in this activity is to promote the Cariri, open the minds of these people to the region's wealth and that they disseminate to others. Only the guide, with all technical background, can show pro visitor the look of the place of the person who resides at that location. The course opened me many horizons. I think we just (laughs).
