Adventure guides play an essential role in providing unique, professional, and responsible adventure experiences. The rapid growth of adventure travel over the last two decades has created an expressed need for professional guides in this niche. This finding confirms the study conducted by USAID Turizam as part of the recently published Strategy for Adventure Tourism Development in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) and adopted strategies for tourism development in both entities of BiH. In order to address this issue in the short term and increase the number of certified and adequately skilled adventure tourism guides, USAID Turizam decided to provide assistance in meeting this challenge through a specialized education and training program. This will include a series of activities aimed at enhancing the skills of existing guides and educating new guides in BiH adventure tourism.
