tour leader
Excursion group director
A tour leader is someone who guides and manages a group traveling together, handling logistics and providing commentary throughout the journey.
The term often implies leading longer, multi-day trips rather than brief local excursions: Our tour leader kept us on schedule through five countries.
Tour leaders combine the roles of guide, organizer, and group manager.
