Finnish translation:matkaopas/matkanjohtaja
Explanation:
Yes, so it is.

The nominative is 'matkanjohtaja', genitive 'matkanjohtajan'

It is also possible that one person carries out these both activites. In that case s/he can be called just so: "matkaopas/matkanjohtaja" and the genitive of this combined expression is "matkaopas/matkanjohtajan".

agree  Hannele Marttila: Matkaopas is mostly used with travel companies such as Finntours. Tour leader would usually be the person heading a group.
