note = "Funding Information: 1 We are grateful for the comments from anonymous peer reviewers and the editors of Ethnologia Europaea: Journal of European Ethnology, as well as to Noel Salazar and Erik Cohen, who have contributed discussions to this issue. Its genesis as a volume originates from extended conver-sations started at an EASA panel in Tallinn, Estonia, in 2014 on tour guides as cultural mediators. Since then it has morphed from an interest in technologies used in tour guiding – technologies being used expansively to include digital practices, the tricks and rhetoric of guid-ing, and harnessing technologies of the imagination in the performance of the guide – into an exploration of cultural mediation in the practice of the tour guide. Jackie Feldman wishes to thank the Israel Science Foun-dation (grant 291/13) and the Israel Institute for provid-ing grants that made this research possible.",
