knowledgeable about the area hes in i have an extensive book col lection when people ask you a question on a bus tour you have to be able to give them a straight answer whether its the popula tion of a town or a factabout a towns history david travels throughout north america have more than qualified him for the role of knowledgeable ambassador to touring guests the maritime tour that resulted in

itinerary for an ontario tour for great western to begin next summer hes learned through the years just what people ynt to see and do and italways gives him a great sense of satisfaction to know theyve enjoyed themselves the greatest pleasure in this job is when people tell you at the end of a trip they were happy that they saw everything there was to see things they wouldnt have seen if theyd been driving themselves he claims that while american tourists are always impressed with what they see its the europeans who are openmouthed the americans know more or less whats up here but for the europeans its a whole new experience david claims its essential to enjoy people in his job i really love meeting people you meet different folks each trip and i love driving i love the highway he says his years as a transport truck driver prepared him for driving a tour coach i learned the roads well how to get to a place but of course when youre leading a tour you have to learn all about the places youre going through david estimates hes driven about a million miles since he began his bus tours hell spend as many as 300 days on the road annually last year alone he spent 240 nights in
