LucknowWhy You Should Hire a Government-Approved Guide for Your Trip
Travelling is one of the most exciting ways to explore new cultures, traditions, and historical places. Whether you are visiting India’s famous heritage sites, spiritual cities, or natural wonders, having a knowledgeable guide by your side can make all the difference. But did you know that in India, only government-approved guides are allowed to provide official tour services?
At Simply India Holidays Pvt. Ltd., we ensure that our travellers get the best experience by offering only Regional Level Guides (RLGs)—highly trained professionals licensed by the Ministry of Tourism, Govt. of India. Let’s find out why hiring a certified guide is the best decision for your journey!
Who Are Regional Level Guides (RLGs)?
Regional Level Guides are expert tourist guides who are trained and certified under the Regional Level Guide Training Program (RLGTP), conducted by Indian Institute of Tourism and Travel Management (IITTM) and other government-approved institutes.
These guides are not just ordinary tour guides—they are historians, research scholars, archaeologists, botanists, trekkers, and even astronomers! They are trained to offer detailed insights into India’s historical, cultural, and religious heritage.
Authentic & Reliable Information
Unlike local, unlicensed guides who may provide misleading or incomplete details, government-approved guides are highly knowledgeable about the places they cover. They ensure you get the most authentic historical and cultural facts.
Legal & Safe
Hiring a certified guide ensures your safety and security. They follow strict regulations set by the Ministry of Tourism and are accountable for their services.
Multilingual Experts
Many of our guides speak multiple languages, making it easier for international travellers to communicate and understand the local culture better.
Personalised Experience
Our guides offer a customized experience based on your interests—whether you love history, spirituality, architecture, or adventure. They also help with recommendations for food, shopping, and offbeat places.
