The work requires social skills far more than extreme outdoor experience. Particular attention will be paid on the shared information and the guide’s storytelling skills on tours. We are aiming at high quality experiences and require our guides to be fully prepared. Our guides use their interests, experienses and education as a base for creating their own personal guiding style.
