A Historical Review of Illegal Tour Guiding in Turkey
The tour guiding profession
was much abused in the past
while illegal guiding took place, and
remains much the same nowadays. With the use of official documents, this
paper outlines issues concerning illegal tour guiding from the past to the
present. Document analysis as a qualitative research method was applied in this
study. Archival research was carried out, and unpublished documents were analysed
to contribute to the literature and shed light on the roots of illegal tour
guiding. Archival data was combined with travel guidebooks, official reports,
and court files. Despite regulations, problems concerning tour guiding continue
to exist to the present day. More than ever before, illegal tour guides
employed by travel agencies have become a threat to the employment of licenced
guides. The number of illegal tour guides proves that current measures remain
incapable of prohibiting illegal guiding activities. Touting seems to be the
longstanding main motivation for illegal guides. Unethical guiding practices
affect the established image of the destination country. From a historical
perspective and underlining issues such as touting through unpublished archived
documents and official reports, this paper contributes a detailed understanding
of the defective points concerning the travel industry.
