At Guidelink, we will only book your tour with a Blue or Green Badge Tourist Guide.<\/p>

Why? Because\u00a0<\/strong>these\u00a0Guides are the best of the best!<\/strong><\/p>

The Blue Badge is the highest Tourist Guiding Qualification in the UK. All our Guides must have completed and passed the intensive 2 year training and they carry\u00a0full Public Liability Insurance<\/strong>.\u00a0 Due to their extensive knowledge, they can tailor-make your tour to suit the occasion. They do not operate fixed itineraries or fixed commentaries, but instead create a unique travel experience for your group<\/p>

We are able to\u00a0offer tours in most languages<\/strong>\u00a0as many of our Tourist Guides speak additional languages. To guide in a foreign language, the Guide must have passed additional examinations to prove professional proficiency, giving you peace of mind and the assurance that your group will enjoy and understand their visit.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
