BOOK REVIEW

How to be an award-winning tour guide

By Jeremy Perks and Jan Barrie

If you love the outdoors and exploring everything nature has to offer, then maybe you need to read this book. As the title suggests, the book can equip you with the right tools and mindset to get you on your way as a tour guide (or help you reinvigorate yourself if already working in the industry), however it is also a great resource for those who are not aspiring to get into the industry. This is not one of those stuffy, academicbased books, based upon theory, but one that has been crafted from real-life experience. The book is filled with the authors' personal experiences, industry insights and hands-on experiences to put you on the right path. Regardless of whether you intend to guide a group through the back streets of Perth, venture into the remote outback or are put in charge of organising your next adventure with friends and family, How to be an Award-Winning Tour Guide breaks down everything you need to know, consider and do to make your next trip a successful one. With over 40 years combined experience, Jeremy and Jan are recognised as leaders in the tourism industry. You can grab your own copy of How to be an Award-Winning Tour Guide from:
