This is a direct translation from escort interpreter

Which in the good old times we used to call гид-переводчик. The term itself says it all: sightseeing, shopping, eating out, you name it. More often than not, some business meetings too. Wherever the client goes, we go. Whatever the client does, we do. Rings a bell?

Thanks much
agree Alexandra Taggart : "Escort" is a glossy golden star which crowns the shallow vocabulary of a peasant.Why it cannot be just "personal interpreter".
