This present study examined the current roles of indigenous tour-guides on the Caribbean islands of Grenada and St. Lucia. Based on a sample of 471 participants, a mixed methods approach was used to analyze responses from participants who responded to a 15 item Likert-type scale questionnaire administered face to face. The results of the questionnaire revealed that the majority of visitors indicated that the role of their tour-guide was mostly pathfinder followed by entertainer. Further analysis used in-depth interviews from tour-guides and their supervisors to gauge their perception of their roles in the visitors' authentic experience. The interviews indicated that the majority of tour-guides and supervisors saw their roles as pathfinders. The dissertation appendices contain details of the quantitative and qualitative research instruments used in the study.
