The International Tourist Guide Day (ITGD) is a day when the general public is invited to sample the work of properly trained tourist guides by participating in all manner of walks, talks and tours, completely free of charge.
ITGD was devised at the 1987 summit of the World Federation of Tourist Guide Associations as a way of raising the profile of the guiding profession. It is now marked by almost 50 professional guide associations around the world.
