A tourist guide or tour guide is any person who, for monetary or other reward, accompanies people who are travelling through or visting any place within a country, and who furnishes those people with information or comments with regard to the places or objects visited. Many tourist guides may also wish to run their own tour operations in which they are both tour guide and tour operator .

There are three categories of tourist guides:

1> Site Guides: these guides have attained the minimum qualifications required in order to guide in a 'limited geographical area', for example, within the boundaries of the Durban Metro area.

2> Regional / Provincial Guides: are qualified to take tourists around an entire province, eg. KZN; and

3> National Guides: who are permitted to conduct tours around South Africa, crossing all provincial boundaries. In addition, Tourist Guides will also be classified as nature or culture guides, or a combination of both.

It is essential that all Tourist Guides are registered with the Department of Environmental Affairs & Tourism (DEAT).

You can use our Searchable Tourist Guide Database for the details of KwaZulu-Natal registered guides.
