Abstract: Intercultural competence of tour guides contributes significantly to enhancing tourists' travel experiences during a journey.It is worth developing this competence for tourism-majored students who have a strong will to become tour guides in the future.The study aims to explore tourism-majored students' self-assessment of their intercultural competence by using a questionnaire informed by an integrative approach to intercultural competence.The results show that the participants reported their weaknesses in attitudinal, cognitive and behavioral competence.This study can be used as a reference for teachers and educators in helping tourism-majored students develop their intercultural competence.
