The local guide means a lot to me. I am originally from Nice, France. I am an immigrant business owner with three locations in the great city of Philadelphia. I am in the biggest tourist area and meet people from all over the world. I still have businesses in France and have many friends and family and business associates that travel through both Philadelphia International and through France. The local guide helps us to find what we are looking for. Sometimes it is hard to express or communicate exactly what they or I am looking for. But with the help of Google Local Guides and Google Translate, we are able to find EXACTLY what we are looking for, be it the BEST HOT CHOCOLATE (at my business of RIM CAFE) or The BEST Philly Cheesesteak!! What if my family wants to come visit Philly and find the local French consulate, French movies, French art show, etc. GOOGLE LOCAL GUIDES!!! But it also helps that I have an international business connection to my city! When my Philly Customers to Rim Cafe travel to the South of France, I can be the local guide to the best points of interest and the not so great. But, even having traveled extensively through Europe/world my whole life with my family of 5, it is a great help to have Google Local Guides!!! I am happy to have this for personal and business use. It is a GREAT give and take benefit to have at your fingertips!!!
