Crafting the World’s Best Tours with Passionate Guides

We hand-pick guides for their passion, expertise and natural storytelling skills to create the world’s best guided tours. We value personality and a genuine love for connecting people and cultures.

Our Philosophy - What Makes a Babylon Tours Guide
 

Knowledge Meets PassionWe select experts in art, history, and culture—guides who know their city like the back of their hand and are eager to share that knowledge, creating unforgettable experiences for travelers.
Storytelling Not ScriptsOur guides don’t just recite facts; they ignite connection and curiosity. Confident and outgoing, they adapt seamlessly to diverse groups and cultures, making every tour engaging and unique.
Personal PerspectivesAs a multinational team serving the world’s greatest cities, we value guides who add their personal touch—sharing hidden gems, favorite spots, and unique stories that make each tour feel truly special.

Working for Babylon Tours
 

We value long-term cooperation and passion for guiding, but happily adapt to your availability and style. We don’t have many rules, but as an independent guide, there’s just a few things to consider when working with us:

  • You must hold all necessary national certificates for museums or specific landmarks for your tours.
  • We provide a general tour structure but you share the information in your own creative way; no scripts or formal training provided.
  • You need to use our simple booking system and designated software, following our protocols to ensure smooth running of our operations. Join our team

Setting Standards
 

At Babylon Tours, our guides are among the best in the industry because we set the bar high. We look for individuals who are outgoing, passionate storytellers, and exceptional communicators — people who bring history, art, and culture to life for every guest.

Fluency in the language of the tour is essential. We currently offer experiences in English, Spanish, Italian, German, French, Dutch, Portuguese, Chinese, and Russian.

We value punctuality, reliability, and independence. As a Babylon Tours guide, you represent our brand and our commitment to excellence. Our guests’ satisfaction is at the heart of everything we do — every guide is an ambassador of our values, ensuring that each visitor leaves inspired, informed, and delighted by their experience.

Because for us, every guest matters — and every tour is a chance to make their journey unforgettable.
