Paul Morrison Guide Award 2008

The Wanderlust Paul Morrison Guide Award celebrates the achievements of the world’s best guides

About the awards

Who is the one person who can make or break your trip? The person who can inspire you to climb one more hill, who can get you excited about dung beetles, who can ignite your interest in ancient history? Who ensures your safety, who helps a group gel, and who most of all guarantees an unforgettable experience?

The Wanderlust Paul Morrison Guide of the Year Awards celebrates the achievements of the world’s best guides – and we need you to nominate the people who’ve made your wanderings great over the past year.

Your nominations and commendations will be assessed by a team of expert judges to determine which guides most merit the award.
