What does it cost to be on GuideMeet?
Nothing. No subscription, no commission, no placement to buy. We are a small company that grows with the number of real trips, and guides are the reason travelers come.
What do I need to create a profile?
A photo of you, at least one vehicle with photos, the countries and regions where you guide, the languages you work in, the services you offer. Ten minutes if the photos are ready.
Why is my profile not on the home page?
Either it is incomplete, and the checklist that appears at the top of your profile shows what is missing, or it was hidden after review because it is outside overland travel or duplicated. Your direct link keeps working. Fix the profile and it comes back.
How do I get more requests?
Complete the profile, put your best vehicle photo first, answer within a day, send proposals on published trips, and share your profile link on WhatsApp and Instagram. Guides who answer fast get seen more.
What is a proposal?
On any published trip you can offer your help for the stretch or the countries where you work: what you would do, for how long, how to reach you. The traveler decides.
Can I list my agency?
Yes, as an agency: the agency name, the vehicles it operates, one profile. Not as several independent guides.
Can I put prices on my profile?
Not yet. You list your services; the price is agreed with each traveler in the inbox, because it depends on the route, the days and the group. Put it in writing there.
How do reviews work?
A traveler can review you once a trip you joined is completed. Ask your clients to do it from the trip page. Reviews from friends or in exchange for discounts are removed.
What is the Founding Guide badge?
The mark of the first 200 guides who joined GuideMeet. It means seniority, not verification.
Someone copied my photos or my profile.
Write to legal@guidemeet.it with the link to the original and the link to the copy, or use the Report page. Copied content is removed.
Can I use GuideMeet from my phone?
Yes: the apps for iOS and Android, or the website. Notifications for new requests arrive in the app.
I want to take a break.
Turn guide mode off from your profile. Your profile leaves the search results and comes back when you turn it on again. Nothing is deleted.
