Guide & Interpreter
Guide/host(ess) and interpreter services
We can provide you guides, hosts, hostesses and interpreters in any languages you need for your programs, meetings or conferences.
The Hungarian language completely differs from most European languages, its grammar and its sound is similar only to the Finnish language. In order to have a conversation with our visitors, we have to learn their languages. Nowadays many languages are taught in Hungarian schools, with English being the most popular. Multigo Travel and Event organizer offers professional guide, interpreter and host(ess) services in any languages, with special attention given to attendees of MICE groups.

Interpreting services
Our company works only with experienced, professional interpreters who are either university-trained, licensed interpreters or graduates of the interpreting courses offered in Strasbourg and by ELTE University and the University of Technology and Economics in Budapest with EMCI (European Master in Conference Interpreting) degrees. Our primary aim is customer satisfaction that we provide with the accuracy and professionalism of our staff. We want our clients to return to us when they require further interpreting services. For this reason, we are very careful when selecting our interpreters for a conference, seminar or lecture. The task of a good interpreter is to make the negotiating partners feel as though they are speaking the same language. In addition to interpreting skills and techniques, an interpreter must also have an excellent knowledge of the foreign language and an ability to express him/herself concisely and accurately in the native language. Furthermore we do pay attantion that our interpreters are skilled in the required terminology – like pharmaceutical, technician, business etc. An understanding of what’s being said is, on its own, not enough, for the meaning also has to be accurately transmitted in order to ensure that the discussion runs smoothly. Ideally, the interpreter becomes invisible, so that your business partner will remember your words rather than the interpreter’s words.
- Consecutive interpreting is perhaps the most commonly known form of interpreting. This is suitable for small meetings and discussions. Contributors stop after a few sentences and wait for the interpreter - who may have been taking notes - to interpret concisely but accurately what has been said.
- Simultaneous interpreting is used at major conferences and events. Interpreters located in soundproof booths translate the speaker’s words while the speaker is speaking. Participants listen to what is said with the help of headphones. This type of interpreting requires considerable preparation, experience and stamina from the interpreters.
