How to Get Started as a Tour Guide

March 2 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
Free

If you are new to guiding and would like some advice on getting started, join the Association of Philadelphia Tour Guides (APT) for a ‘how to’ session on Zoom, Monday March 2 at 7 pm. Some of our newer members, who have made successful inroads into obtaining work as a tour guide, will share how they broke in,  what they wish they had known early on, and their best advice for new guides. We’ll also review insurance, Commercial Use Authorization (CUA) and interpreting in Independence National Historical Park (INHP), and tour guide etiquette. Bring your questions!

RSVP below to register for this free event. Registration will close at 5 pm the day of the event. We highly recommend watching the recording 2026 Orientation for New APT Members before this event if you haven’t already. This webinar is limited to APT members, but we’d love for you to join APT if you’d like to attend! Email Marianne Ruane president@phillyguides.org with any questions.
