    You probably have loads more ideas, but these will hopefully trigger some imagination.

    #33: Safe Environment

    #33: Safe Environment

    This is Chapter 31 in the book 'Walking Tour Guiding - the ultimate handbook'.
    Often safely is not at the top of the preparation list, and only gets noticed when there is an accident.  I suggest you consider the safety of your walking tour before you even put it together.

    #32: Storytelling

    #32: Storytelling

    This is Chapter 30 in the book 'Walking Tour Guiding - the ultimate handbook'.
    Storytelling forms the foundation of the experience you share with your guests.  Stories add so much more to your narrative and when you become conscious of how you tell stories, you can do more of what works and less of what doesn't.

    #31: Colour your Walks

    This is Chapter 29 in the book 'Walking Tour Guiding - the ultimate handbook'.
    In this chapter, I give examples of language you can use to make your walks more interesting. Please don't learn your walks 'off by heart', but as you get more comfortable with your content, colourful phrases will become easy to slot in.
