Meet our new Yellow Badge colleagues in Paisley. After 7 months of hard work, of giving over nights and weekends to studying and practising, after braving the winter weather, all five fabulous trainees passed the STGA assessment at the end of March.
Come and join the fun and help us celebrate International Tourist Guide Day!
On 21st February, the Scottish Tourist Guides Association will celebrate International Tourist Guide Day. To mark the occasion, residents and visitors to Edinburgh will have the opportunity to join in a fantastic free-of-charge Walking Tour Event which will see a group of over a dozen of our ‘Blue Badge’ guides criss-cross the city sharing their love and knowledge of our capital.
As some of you may know, I was interviewed in August 2014 by Michael Portillo for one of his “Great British Railway Journeys” television programmes. It will be broadcast on Tuesday 6 January at 18:30 on BBC 2. Indeed every evening that week at the same time there will be one of his programmes on railways in Scotland.
Congratulations to all 19 of the 2012-2014 Blue Badge Course students who qualified as STGA Blue Badge Guides at the end of May!
The Scottish Government is delighted to endorse the work of the Scottish Tourist Guides Association in recognition of their worldwide reputation and quality work and training. I commend the passion and knowledge they bring to guiding and congratulate them on continuing to set the standard in this area.
