private guide
Hired tour companion
A private guide is a person hired to lead or accompany an individual or small group on tours, excursions, or travel experiences, as opposed to guides who work with larger public groups.
Private guides offer personalized attention and flexibility: We hired a private guide to show us the back streets of Rome.
