Guiding is Fun Training

What is Guiding is Fun Training?

The Scottish Tourist Guides Association (STGA) offers Guiding is Fun training for tourism attractions throughout Scotland who utilise the services of their own guides. These guides may be volunteers, seasonal staff or fully employed.

Guiding is Fun Training is a three or four day training programme for tourist guides at attractions, which consists of a presentation with a number of interactive sessions covering the requirements of European and British Standards for a Communication Seminar.
