Croatia to get first tourist guide for people with special needs

Vanda Sagovac, a graduate of Zagreb's School of Management, will soon become Croatia's first tourist guide for people with special needs, the Croatian Tourism Ministry said in a statement.

Tourism Minister Damir Bajs on Saturday attended a field course for participants in a seminar for tourist guides of the Zagreb School of Management and presented Sagovac with a document proving that the ministry was paying for her participation in the seminar.

Sagovac is the only deaf person who has graduated from the Zagreb School of Management to be a tourist guide and who will soon become the first tourist guide in the country for people with special needs. This will make the Zagreb Tourism Board the only tourism board in Europe with a professional tourist guide for deaf-mute persons. (Hina)
