As places are limited, tour guides are now invited to register for the two days of in-field workshops and professional development sessions.
The Wet Tropics Tour Guide Training Program was initiated last year by the Wet Tropics Management Authority in partnership with the regional tourism industry to improve the presentation of the region’s world heritage values to our visitors. The initiative includes a comprehensive online course and bi-annual field schools.
Executive Director of the Wet Tropics Management Authority, Andrew Maclean said, “Our aim is to work with tour guides and employers to build on the region’s reputation as a high quality destination providing authentic rainforest tourism experiences.”
