The Scottish Tourist Guides Association (STGA) announced that they have welcomed 20 newly Blue Badge Guides. They have  gained their accreditation after 18 months of training throughout Scotland. 

To meet the demand for professionally trained tourist guides in Scotland, the STGA is running another two Blue Badge Guide Courses.

One class will graduate in April 2026 and another class will start their journey in August 2025, graduating in the spring of 2027.
