The 6th German Guest Guide Conference DGFT with the subsequent 29th Annual General Meeting of the Federal Association of Guest Guides in Germany took place on 03. and 04 March 2023 will be held in Kassel.
I was able to attend and participate in some exciting tours of Kassl, as well as listen to some great presentations. Among others, on the topic of “Comfort through accessibility: What we can learn from guided tours for guests with disabilities” by Gisela Moser, expert for accessibility in tourism or “Regio-Ranger – Academy for nature guides” by Jan Brockmann, graduate biologist.
I am grateful for this super weekend and would like to congratulate on a job well done!
Congratulations to Maren Richter and the whole board team for the re-election!

As Austria Guides, we have a certain responsibility with regard to remembrance culture and, in addition to informative tours of Hartheim Castle and Mauthausen Concentration Camp, we also give tours in Vienna, about Jewish culture.
Currently, a particularly exciting performance is taking place at the Circus of Knowledge at the Johannes Kepler University, where the question is being addressed of how memory culture functions when there are no more contemporary witnesses.
The next appointment is on 11.02.2023 from 16:00 to 17:30.

The market for guided bike groups is booming!
During the pandemic, many bus operators purchased a bicycle trailer. Many guests own an e-bike and want to get to know the country and its people.
However, there are too few bike tour guides who know about e-bike groups, cultural enjoyment cycling, theory and technology.
On March 24-26, we offer a course in Vienna to train as a certified bike tour guide*in.
In this hands-on course, we’ll teach you the essentials of being a bike tour guide. You’ll also get lots of tips for everyday bike guiding, like useful apps, what should go in your gear bag, how to properly set up a bike, and how to make small repairs.
In addition, we work out the structure of day tours based on the most important Austrian river bike paths (Enns, Inn, Drau, Ybbs and Mur).

We are looking forward to your registration!
