Similar words in German include "Fremdenführer" (tour guide) for a person and "Reisehandbuch" (travel handbook) for a guidebook.
Differences:
- "Reiseführer" can refer to both a book and a person, whereas "Fremdenführer" specifically refers to a person.
- "Reisehandbuch" specifically refers to a book and does not imply a person.
