Tour Director U

I read Randy Keck’s article “Tour Director Training and Employment — 2007 Update” (April ’07, pg. 105). I am a tour director. I love traveling on my own and love traveling leading tours.

I received my tour director/manager training at the International Guide Academy/International Tour Manager Academy, Inc., or IGA/ITMA (Box 370190, Denver, CO 80237-0190; 877/442-4862, www.bepaidtotravel.com). I graduated in November of 1995.

This school is highly recognized and respected, and graduates have been employed by well-known travel companies throughout the United States and the world. Classes are offered in Denver and in Cuernavaca, Mexico.
