What a great response! Viola has just returned from the beautiful Orkney Islands where she was met with passion and enthusiasm for three sessions of the WFTGA Cruise Guide Training. All in all 40 STGA Guides and Students took the opportunity to look behind the scenes of the cruise industry, to hone their skills and share their experiences for welcoming over 70 cruise ships to Orkney this summer. Don't just sail by, stay a while ... and let Orkney's Ambassadors look after you!
