🎉 Our YOUTH-ful-GUIDES Training Program in Xanthi, Greece has officially come to an end – and what a journey it has been!

From getting to know each other and dreaming about becoming cultural guides, to field sessions, real tour rehearsals, and testing the YouthfulGuides app — our 15 young participants showed incredible enthusiasm, creativity, and dedication every step of the way.

Over 5 exciting days, they learned about guiding techniques, tourist profiles, non-verbal communication, sustainability, and storytelling. They explored the Old Town of Xanthi, researched key landmarks, created team-based tours, and even delivered full presentations as a final rehearsal for their public tours in September.

The final day took place at actina’s offices, where participants reflected on their journey, created their profiles in the YouthfulGuides app, and offered valuable feedback for improvement. They also completed their evaluation forms and wrapped up the Post-it challenge, celebrating the goals they had achieved!
