The Hands On Tourist Guide Training (HOT) Course is WFTGA’s introductory course in practical guiding skills. It is equally suitable for guides who are already competent in local knowledge but wish to sharpen their practical guiding technique. The course is well suited to be integrated into existing tourist guide training programmes, preferably towards the beginning of the programme.

HOT is delivered on location worldwide and works best in-house, in the area-specific working conditions of the tourist guides taking part.
