The traveller Posted January 29, 2005 Share Posted January 29, 2005 I was wondering if anyone knows about tour guiding in France. Do you know if it is possible for an english speaking only person to take people on tours, example, walking tours of particular towns, museums, art galleries etc. My self and my partner are wanting to live in France. Are there any special qualifications required. I look forward to your reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Causette Posted January 31, 2005 Share Posted January 31, 2005 There's an American (I think) lady called Rachel Kaplan who has a website at www.frenchlinks.com She charges megabucks to take people on all sorts of tours. May give you some ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crevette Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 From my understanding, the majority of jobs in Tourist Offices/museams/Town guides go to qualified people - there is a "degree" in becoming a tour guide in France! ("Guide National")Best bet would be to try "unofficial" guide services such as the tour busses, etc.Good luck!-Rob- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
