Do I need a license to be a tour guide in Singapore?
I am interested in becoming a tour guide in Singapore either as a full-time job or even as a side job as I have a great passion for speaking to people and I want to show the people in Singapore and around the world how fun Singapore is. Does anyone know if I need to get a license or other types of qualifications to become a tour guide?
Hey there Sky Foo! Yes, you will need a license to be a tour guide in Singapore. This blog goes into it in great detail "https://blog.seedly.sg/tour-guide-in-singapore/". The gist of it is that you need to attend a school if you have passed your O levels and scored at least a B4 in English and/or Chinese language and you can enroll in one of the three schools (Singapore Chinese Chamber Institute of Business, Tourism Management Institute Of Singapore or William Angliss Institute PTE LTD)
It will cost somewhere from $2k to $3K+
All the best, I hope you have a great time!
