Running a course for your site/city/region

Professional guides help your site come alive and greatly enhance the visitor experience.
The Institute of Tourist Guiding accredits and examines all Blue, Green and White Badge courses in England, Northern Ireland and Jersey so visitors can expect to receive the same quality guiding experience whether they book a Blue Badge Tourist Guide in Cornwall, Green Badge Guide in Nottingham or a White Badge Guide in Hull. As a result of the extensive training our qualifications are known both nationally and internationally and are widely requested by tour operators and group organisers from around the world.
If you want your city, region or site to benefit from professionally trained guides, take the next step below and find out how to organise a training course.
