Your role

You know those road trips where you're driving through a spectacular landscape, on the way to somewhere fabulous, and you've just had a thrilling conversation with the person sitting next to you - about life, history, passions. That could be your every day - by becoming a Rabbie's Driver-Guide leading small-group mini-coach tours throughout the UK. You're not just there to drive in silence - you're there to make their day memorable with that story you love about your favourite historical figure or a quirky local festival. You share the secrets of the places you're visiting and divulge the tricks to make their day easier. You play music they'll come to love and take photos they'll treasure for a lifetime. You're just as much a part of their experience and their holiday, and they are part of your adventures too. You become their guide and storyteller, sharing the pride of the UK's landscapes, history, and culture. And the best thing is that no day is the same as you keep meeting people from all over the world and you explore the forever-changing landscapes.
