What Recruiters Look For

Tour Guide CVs must show your qualification level (Blue Badge is the gold standard), languages spoken, and client feedback scores. Include tour types, group sizes, and any specialist themes.

Key Skills to Include

Blue Badge qualification, multilingual guiding, storytelling, group management, coach commentary, first aid, destination knowledge, and corporate event guiding.

Common Mistakes

Not including your review scores and client feedback. Tour guiding is a service industry. State your TripAdvisor/Google rating, number of reviews, and repeat booking rate.

Formatting Tips

One page. Lead with your Blue Badge status and languages. Include your review rating and tour volume prominently. List specialist themes and notable corporate clients.
