Local Tour Creator (Part Time) - Las Vegas, Los Angeles, & New York City Stray Boots Interactive Tours
THIS JOB HAS EXPIRED
We're seeking someone passionate about urban exploration, trivia, and discovery to join our local team. You'll help us maintain and repair our existing tours and ultimately create your own Stray Boots tours from scratch!
We have over 50 total tours across 14 cities, from LA to NYC, and we're looking to expand our offerings even further. Each tour gives customers "challenges" filled with fun trivia, riddles, and cool photo ops in a particular neighborhood. Since cities are ever-changing, we need someone on the ground to give us a hand. And, we're always looking to add new areas, themes, museums, and parks to our collection. This is where you come in.
You'll be an integral part of our team from day 1. You'll work directly with the company founders to maintain existing tours and create new ones. We'll depend on your creativity, know-how, and research (both on the web and in the streets!) to make memorable experiences for thousands of customers. You'll take an important hands-on role in the development of Stray Boots.
Keep note, these positions are based in New York City, Los Angeles, and Las Vegas and are on a part time basis.

We're a New York-based company started by a couple of guys who thought that exploring a city could be way more fun if you made it into a game. We love discovering new things, and our goal is to make it more enjoyable, entertaining, and interesting for our customers. Our text message-based, interactive tours and private scavenger hunts are a fun way to enjoy any occasion or just spend an afternoon.

| Company Profile: | Angel-backed start-up that's looking to turn the travel industry on it's head. Millions of people every day are subjected to lackluster walking and bus tours of cities across the globe. Generally, these tours stink: they rely on the passive, sit-and-listen model (yawn); they hold their participants captive, sucking all the fun out of exploring a city; they lack originality of content; and they're overpriced. So we invented a better way. Through our proprietary technology, we deliver cell phone-guided, interactive tours to tourists and locals who want a more engaging way to discover their urban surroundings. Recently awarded a 2011 TripAdvisor.com Certificate of Excellence (yay, certificates), we have been rapidly expanding across the country. We're in 8 cities now. By the end of this year, we'll be in 20. Next year, the world... |
