World Federation of Tourist Guide Associations
THE WFTGA WAS FOUNDED in 1985 and officially recognised as a non-profit-making and non-political organisation after a 2nd Convention held in Vienna in 1987. Further successful conventions have now been held in Cyprus, Finland, South Africa, Singapore, Canada and Hong Kong...
...and now back to Cyprus for the WFTGA 2001 Convention!
The Secretariat of the Federation, which is registered in Vienna, is located in London at present. Executive Board Members and Area Representatives are active professional tourist guides. The official language of the WFTGA is English.
The aims of WFTGA are:
- to establish contact with tourist guide associations throughout the world and to reinforce their professional ties.
- to represent professional tourist guides internationally and to promote and protect their interests.
- to promote high standards of training and ethics within the profession of tourist guides and to enhance the reputation of the profession.
