As we know, on February 27, 2025 the registrations to the Tourist guide call 2025 (>> We talk about it in this article). As mentioned, the qualification exam requires in -depth preparation on various subjects, and is structured in three tests: written test, oral test and technical-practical test (>> A preparation manual for all tests is available on Amazon).
In this article we focus on the final test, which substantially consists in the simulation of a guided tour. Recall that those who pass all three tests gets the qualification and is enrolled in the national list of tourist guides.
Tourist guide enable 2025: exam tests and subjects
The exam for the achievement of the qualification to the profession of tourist guide must ascertain the professionalism and specific skills of the candidates. As mentioned, it is divided into three tests: one written testone oral test and one technical-practical test (simulated guided tour). For each test, a maximum score of 40 points can be assigned and the test is intended to be passed (by the transition to the next test) if the candidate has reported a score of at least 25 points.
The written test (Multiple answer tests with 80 questions to be resolved in 90 minutes) and the oral test (interview that evaluates the communication skills, knowledge and deepening of the contentsin addition to the knowledge of at least one foreign language at level B2) will focus on the following subjects:
- History of art
- Geography
- History
- Archeology

Tourist guide enable 2025, technical-practical test: guided tour simulation
The last test, the technical-practical one, aims to evaluate the practical skills of the aspiring tourist guide, its ability to conduct guided tours and to provide relevant information and to manage the unexpected events, and consists in the simulation of a guided tour in Italian and in the foreign language choice.
In the last section of the Volume Maggioli publisher Tourist Guide Guide Competition 2025 – Theory and Test examination are present Mired suggestions for the preparation of the candidate and a selection of simulations guided tour. Which is even more important, in the online section connected to the volume a real is included digital tutor who manages to help the candidate better understand the topics, repeat some concepts, make maps and schemes, organize a study plan, perform quiz on the exam subjects and – not least – Prepare a complete guided tour. We understand better how to exploit it.
Guided tour simulation: how to exploit the digital tutor of Maggioli
Here are the strengths of the digital tutor that Maggioli includes with the purchase of his preparation manual:
- Possibility to prepare with expert tourist guides: simulations made by certified tourist guides from all over Italy (from Catania to Bologna, Turin and many other cities). A precious support to practice immediately with structured practical tests.
- Possibility to practice complete and targeted way: initially the simulations are generic, ideal for familiarizing with the technical-practical test; But the real added value comes 20 days before the competition, when the Commission has released the list of contexts of cultural, artistic, archaeological and landscape heritage that will be concretely subject to the technical-practical test.
- Real -time update on official issues: When the Ministry publishes the list of 40 official destinations, an advanced artificial intelligence system will generate 40 updated and specific simulations. No more generic exercises: it will be possible to train directly on the actual test content.
