📍Imagine yourself in a city you’ve never been to before, surrounded by stunning landmarks, with centuries of history in most streets… but you don’t know where to begin. You want to understand, to feel, to truly experience the place. That’s where we, tour guides, come in.
💬 Today is a special day: International Tourist Guide Day! 🎉
I am a certified tour guide, and more than just a job, this is my passion. Every day, I get the privilege of unlocking history, art, and culture, sharing hidden stories, and—most importantly—creating unforgettable memories for travelers from all around the world.
🏛 Being a guide is not just about reciting facts. It’s about bringing history to life, giving soul to places, and adapting to every visitor to create a unique experience. We are storytellers, cultural ambassadors, sometimes even secret keepers, and always great at finding the best hidden spots!
Yet, this profession remains undervalued at times. Behind every tour, there are hours of research, preparation, and a deep knowledge that goes beyond the surface. A certified guide is not just a human GPS! We are memory-makers, the ones who turn a simple walk into a journey through time.
🌟 So today, I want to take a moment to celebrate my profession and give a huge shout-out to all my fellow guides around the world. 🎊 To those who, with their passion and knowledge, make every street, every stone, every story shine.
If you’ve ever had a memorable experience with a guide, share it in the comments! And next time you travel… don’t forget to book a tour with a guide—you’ll see the difference 😉
Happy International Tourist Guide Day to all of us! 🗺✨
