Join the community of professionals already awaiting the launch of GuideSquare.
Contact us for more information and to be among the first to access the platform.
Guidesquare is an automated platform for matching, consultancy requests and intermediation in the tourism sector.
For tourism businesses, the Guidesquare network is much more than a simple “quick” search for a guide: it is a unique tool that provides valuable contacts to organise and deliver the best possible service in the chosen destination.
In practice:
• the operator fills in the service request form with all the necessary details;
• the Guidesquare team identifies the most suitable professionals and checks their availability;
• when needed, we also provide consultancy to help define programme, pricing and product details in the best possible way.
We are the first field-based network of tourism professionals, created to offer the market an automated solution: a B2B platform-tool dedicated to tour operators and travel planners.
Guidesquare is:
• a tool that connects demand (tourism operators) with supply (a network of professionals in the field);
• a place where tourism professionals can connect and collaborate with one another;
• a platform designed to help both sides meet their expectations by offering the most personalised and effective service possible.
It is designed for anyone who sells guided services to their clients: cruise and generalist DMCs, incentive houses, hotels, concierge services, incoming tour operators, schools, cultural associations, local tourism boards and info points, and similar organisations.
Guidesquare is a network of colleagues who know each other and have chosen to put their professionalism at the service of an exclusive project, turning the final product into a rich and engaging experience for the end customer.
Guides are the real local experts: the only tourism professionals who fully understand guests’ needs and expectations once they are on site, whether for cultural visits (GT), experiential tours (AT–GT) or outdoor activities (GAE).
For operators this means:
• no subscription fees during the launch phase;
• high quality standards thanks to a careful selection of professionals;
• the certainty of finding the right profile for each type of service requested.
For professionals this means:
• joining a network of highly qualified colleagues;
• showcasing their skills through a channel dedicated to quality tourism;
• receiving qualified requests from serious and vetted operators.
Who is Guidesquare designed for?
For anyone who sells guided services to their own clients: cruise and generalist DMCs, incentive houses, hotels, concierge services, incoming tour operators, schools, cultural associations, local tourism boards, info points and other operators working with guided tours and experiences.
What is your main strength?
Guidesquare genuinely values the work of those who are on the ground every day. Guides are the real local experts and the best consultants when it comes to designing and delivering tours: they understand guests’ needs and expectations in each destination, for cultural visits (GT), experiential tours (AT–GT) and outdoor activities (GAE, NCC, boats).
What is your target market?
Operators specialising in high-quality, tailor-made experiences and “just in time” tourism businesses working with individual clients and small to medium–high budget groups.
Who are the professionals in the network?
The best professionals in the sector: licensed tour guides (GT), tour leaders (AT), hiking and environmental guides (GAE), NCC drivers and skippers.
What are the reference rates?
We refer to the official regional rate tables of the professional categories involved: tour guides, tour leaders and hiking/environmental guides (for example, the official tariff tables of the Liguria region).
Where do you operate?
Initially in Liguria, in the main tourism areas of Genoa, Portofino and the Cinque Terre. The network is gradually expanding to other Italian destinations.
How are requests managed?
The operator submits a request through the dedicated form. The Guidesquare team quickly identifies the most suitable professional and, when needed, provides additional consultancy to fine-tune the experience.
Why should potential clients choose Guidesquare?
During the launch phase there are no subscription costs. We guarantee high quality standards, find the most suitable professional for each service and provide access to one of the most structured networks of guides, tour leaders and tourism professionals in Italy.
