The guide behind the route

A guidebook shows you where. Manish helps you see why.

I'm Vishwanath "Manish" Parashar, a guide from Pushkar, founder of The Pushkar Route and a licensed, authorised guide with the Rajasthan Government's Department of Tourism.

I started these walks to share more than a checklist of sights - the Hindu traditions around the lake, histories tucked into the lanes, and the warmth of Rajasthan's everyday culture. Each route can be shaped around your pace and what you want to discover.
