The Nelson Mandela Bay Tourist Guides Association (NMBTGA) represents a significant number of registered tourist guides with diverse backgrounds, who speak a number of languages. Members range from those legally accredited to guide a particular site or limited geographic area, to those who guide several provinces, to some who have the coveted National accreditation allowing them to guide throughout South Africa.


The NMBTGA is respected in the tourism industry as a body without political, racial, religious, or gender bias. It acts as a pressure group, as a consultative body on matters concerning guiding and provides constant professional updating to its members. It functions through an Executive Committee, the members of which have areas of responsibility and give freely of their time. They provide support and advice to the members on Both NMBTGA policy and day-to-day issues. Members of the Committee represent the Association and guiding community on various governmental and quasi-governmental bodies.


Constant professional updating is supplied through a programme of talks, courses, visits and educationals. An electronic newsletter keeps members fully briefed on current information and new issues relating to tourism and guiding.
