The Tour Guiding course at Stanmore School of Business was a solid choice for me. As a Brazilian, I was looking to improve my skills in leading tours for international visitors. The course covered a lot of ground, from basic tour planning to more advanced topics like crisis management. I found the instructor's feedback to be really helpful, and the online discussions with fellow students were a great way to learn from others. One thing that would've made the course better for me was more focus on Latin American-specific tourism issues, but overall, I'm happy with what I learned.
