About Us
ABOUT CITY AND DISTRICT OF ST ALBANS TOUR GUIDES
The City and District of St Albans Tour Guides Association was founded in 1964, as an independent organisation. Our guides are qualified to either Blue Badge or Green Badge level within the Institute of Tourist Guiding, and all have a comprehensive knowledge of local history and guiding techniques. St Albans City Guides are all volunteers, who have an enthusiasm and commitment to promoting the city of St Albans to local residents and visitors alike.
Walks take place on most weekends throughout the year, and members of the public are welcome to book in advance . We offer a wide variety of themed walks within our programme, reflecting the rich and diverse history of St Albans
In addition to our public walks, we also cater for prebooked private groups. Examples of such groups include local schoolchildren, overseas academics, staff outings and U3A history groups. In partnership with the Cathedral Guides, we now offer a combined City and Cathedral tour, which takes in both the magnificent cathedral and the city surrounding it.
We have a range of illustrated talks, which we give to local groups in their own meeting venues. Go to our Private Walks and Talks
page to see the range of talks we offer.
