Meet our current team of YOLO tour guides

The Role

Our tours come in two distinct styles:

- Active Adventures- fast-paced, adrenaline-filled and active.
- Laid-back Adventures- a more relaxed pace with an emphasis on culture and sightseeing.

YOLO Guides are expected to deliver both experiences to guests.

No matter which tour style you lead, we are passionate about the fantastic experience delivered to our guests, requiring the highest level of dedication and professionalism from all our team.

In return, we invest considerable time and effort into developing people into our guiding roles.

Our customers come from all over the world and across a wide spectrum of ages and backgrounds. But what they have in common is that they are all here to relax, unwind and enjoy their holidays.

Most of our tours last between 5-12 days. It is hard work and you will be away from home, but it is also excellent fun, a healthy way of life and very rewarding.

Plus the pay is OK too. (Season runs from mid-March to the end of October).
