Meet The Guides

The Jersey Tourist Guides Association (JTGA) is made up of Blue Badge Guides, Bronze Badge Award holders and Associate Members. This list also includes non-members who have expert knowledge and practical guiding experience.

Blue Badge Guides are professional guides who have undertaken written examinations on all aspects of Jersey knowledge and are trained in all guiding procedures.

Bronze Badge Award holders have undertaken a written general Jersey knowledge test but are not trained in guiding techniques.

Associate Members are experts in their own field and have practical experience of guiding.

Below you’ll find contact details for JTGA members, and other local guides, who are available for guiding, along with their main areas of expertise. They are happy to be pre-booked months in advance or, if they are available by phone at the last minute. With a wealth of local knowledge and a genuine interest in island matters our appointed guides are here to help you make the most of your experience in Jersey.
