​BARBARA JOHNSON

Profile

​​I have lived in Denver for 35 years and am trained and certified by IGA as both an International Tour Manager and Tour Guide.  I am also a professional associate in the Rocky Mountain Guides Association.  I work for several Destination Management Companies in the region, and am experienced in convention activities and events.  I also have experience leading student and adult groups on the East Coast and the Western National Parks.  I volunteer at the Denver International Airport as an Ambassador, and the Denver Center Theater Company where I enjoy the cultural aspect of Denver.

I would like to be considered especially for tours that highlight history, National and State parks and monuments, wineries and general sightseeing everywhere in the Rocky Mountain Region.
