Hello & Aadaab ! 'Aadaab' is Lucknow's very own salutation to greet someone. 'Aadaab' is a plural form of the Persian word 'Adab' literally means 'respect to all forms'. This secular term of greeting was introduced by the Last Nawab of Awadh (Oudh) - Nawab Wajid Ali Shah. My name is Ravi, born and brought up in a nearby place to Lucknow and now for many years residing in Lucknow. I grew up with an immense love and interest for travel and history. My interest in Travel later lead me to pursue a career in this field. As a result of it I have completed my graduation programme in Tourism & Travel. Along with all that I had also got a golden opportunity to work with an Inbound Tour Company in the year 2012. Since then I have been involved in many assignments and completed them quite successfully under various capacity. Most of the time this was the role of full time Monument-Story Teller but yes I also enjoyed the role of a Tour Leader, Language Interpreter and Tour Product Researcher and developer. During these years, I was much honoured to show our city to many visitors including few renowned people across the globe, authors and travel bloggers and have found mention in few articles (online/off-line) on national and international level. In all these years I have also developed my keen interest in Photography, specially Food Photography, Architecture, Life-Style, Religious Mythology, Indian History and Podcast. Lucknow and I, we both are always happy to assist and welcome you here. Will wait for you. Sukriya (Thank You) ! Professional Experience >Working as a Professional Monument Story Teller and Tour Leader in Lucknow since last 10 Years. >Worked as an Interpreter for few International Organisations. >Worked with premier tour operator. Educational Qualification Bachelor Of Arts (Tourism Management) From IGNOU **Completed Both Round of Vaccination Against Covid-19** I am not a driver.

Terrific tour with a very knowledgable, personable guide. The tour with Ravi was everything & more that I’d hoped for. Ravi's depth of knowledge & manner was much appreciated by my daughter & myself. Our tour was the highlight of our time in Lucknow. I have recommended Ravi to my friends who are frequent visitors to India.

Dear Shane & Friends, Thank you for your kind feedback and rating. We are indeed grateful to you for taking a tour with us and happy to know that you enjoyed a trip to our city, Lucknow. Regards, Ravi.
Mr. Ravi did the job with patience, commitment and sincerity. He was prompt to report before the appointed time in the morning and planned the tour well. He was well informed about the various monuments. Last but not the least, his sweet gesture of gifting a book about the history of Lucknow is much appreciated.
