Guiding Rates 2025

Our guiding fees are set in line with those recommended by the British Guild of Tourist Guides. However, each guide is free to negotiate their own rate within the given range according to the client’s requirements and in consideration of other factors such as travelling distance, duration, specialist knowledge and language spoken.

For the services of a guide on a walking tour, or in a coach or other vehicle provided by the client:
Full-day rate (4 to 9 hours) minimum £335.
Half-day rate (up to 4 hours) minimum £210.

For foreign language tours, there is likely to be an extra charge of around £50 for a full-day tour and £30 for a half-day tour.

For unsociable hours, there may be an additional charge of between £40 and £70 per hour.
