Dear Guide Guiders,

The Gardens by the Bay Ambassador Programme (GAP) 2024 is back. Since its launch in 2012, more than 600 of our Guides have become GB Ambassadors of the award-winning garden. Guides who have completed the programme discovered more about the vast variety of plants and acquired valuable knowledge on the sustainability efforts of the garden. In addition, they also gained experience by conducting garden tours as well as facilitating and delivering programmes amidst the beautiful setting. This is indeed a great learning opportunity for the Guides as they play an active role in one of Singapore’s popular tourist attractions.

Please read the details below carefully before committing to this programme.
Guides will only attain this badge if they complete sessions 1 – 4.
If a Guide misses an Ask Me! session, she will need to do a make-up session based on GBTB’s availability.

Guides (Batch 2)

Number of available places: 80
