Midlands Magic Story Book Tour: A call for passionate tour operators to bring local history to life
The Midlands is set to become the stage for a unique and immersive experience with the launch of the Midlands Magic Story Book Tour—a first-of-its-kind journey that combines art and storytelling to showcase the region's rich history and vibrant culture. This outdoor tour will feature a series of captivating paintings and narratives, each telling a different story from the Midlands' past, creating a living storybook that visitors can explore.
As part of this exciting initiative, the organisers are on the lookout for passionate locals to join as tour operators. This is a golden opportunity for individuals who love the Midlands and its people to play a key role in sharing the community’s stories with the world.
Who Should Apply?
The ideal candidates are residents of the Midlands with a deep love for the region and its history. While extensive historical knowledge is not required, a basic understanding of key historical areas in the Midlands is important. Tour operators will serve as the heart of the tour, infusing each experience with enthusiasm and a personal touch.
Customer service is at the core of this role, so applicants should have a genuine passion for people and a desire to create memorable experiences for every visitor. In addition to a love for storytelling, a business-minded approach is essential, as this role offers the chance to build a solid business within a unique and growing tourism niche.
Applicants must be 18 years or older, and the organisers are encouraging individuals of all ages—from young adults to seniors—to apply, as there is no upper age limit. Professional experience is not a barrier, as training will be provided to ensure every tour operator is fully prepared to lead the Midlands Magic Story Book Tour with confidence and expertise.
