About Tour Guide Devesh P.
Namaste! My name is Devesh, and I was born and raised in the spiritual town of Rishikesh, nestled on the banks of the sacred Ganga River. After completing my graduation here, I deepened my connection with our ancient heritage by studying the art of Yoga and Sanskrit at the Shri Jai Ram Sanskrit Mahavidyalaya, located in the serene lap of the Ganga. Later change please: I can pick you up to Delhi if you drop me a request
With a deep love for my hometown and the Himalayas, I began working as a local tour guide in Rishikesh, sharing its hidden gems, spiritual heritage and natural beauty with travelers from around the world. Over time, I expanded into leading multi-day treks and tours across the Indian Himalayas, including Uttarakhand, Himachal, and beyond.
Meeting new people and showing them around my city is not just a profession—it’s a passion that brings me immense joy. Whether you're looking for a peaceful walk along the Ganga, a spiritual retreat, or a challenging Himalayan trek, I’d be honored to guide you through experiences that stay with you long after your journey ends.
Let’s explore the magic of Rishikesh and the Himalayas together!
