Learn about the differences between culinary tourist guide and culinary tour operator training & licensing

Updated over a week ago

We certify only eligible food or beverage tourist guides and culinary tour operators which have proven to us that they have the preparation necessary to deliver a successful food or beverage tour.

By guides, we mean human individuals, not books or other published written travel guides.

By operators, we mean companies that produce, promote, and sell food or beverage tours.

Please note that we do not certify or authorize any kind of official or professional license. These are tasks typically handled by government authorities in your local area where you operate.

Culinary tourist guide and culinary tour operator certifications are optional professional certifications that convey to your customers that you are an expert, or an expert company, in the provision of food or beverage tours.
