Biofluorescent Guide Training
We believe it is the passion and love of the guide that makes for a truly memorable experience. We live and breath biofluorescence, from studying the science, to capturing images from behind the lens, it is our lives. We would love to share this passion with you.
As pioneers in the field of biofluorescence, we have explored this hidden world of glow across five different continents and had the pleasure of interviewing leading researchers and enthusiasts around the globe to dive deep into the story. A story full of information, signals and interactions that until now have remained invisible.
We are all familiar with the world of reflected light; biofluorescence gives us a whole new layer to the story of the natural world. A way to reveal unseen narratives and processes that take place all around us.
It offers a fantastic tool to engage guests with the natural world. It is unique in its ability to turn the world of colour completely upside down, transforming the benign and everyday into otherworldly magic.
A Comprehensive program
In being one of the first companies to offer biofluorescent night walks, we crafted our unique experience from scratch. All our training courses are offered according to your needs and the areas you work in, encompassing both classroom sessions and hands-on practical sessions. They comprehensively equip you with the knowledge and skills necessary to confidently offer guided biofluorescent night walks to your guests.
Course content includes:
- Biofluorescence 101 – who, what, where, when and why
- Biofluorescence vs bioluminescence
- Habitats & lifestyles
- Functions
- Light sources
- Lichens & fungi
- Plants
- Terrestrial animals
- Marine animals
From classroom to the field
Delve into the world of biofluorescence through a series of dynamic presentations covering everything from fundamentals to in-depth scientific insights. We’ll explore health and safety considerations and identify the fascinating biofluorescent organisms to be found in your local habitats.
Experience the magic firsthand with guided walks, where theory meets practice. As one of the first providers of biofluorescent night walks in the world, we’ve gathered extensive knowledge, making this an unrivalled opportunity to learn firsthand about this fascinating world. We aim to create “wow” moments in each and every walk, to highlight nature’s magic and instil awe in the participants.
