TIM
has designed this special tourist
guide course keeping in mind the
dramatic growth in the tourism industry.
Tourism is already the fastest growing
and largest employment generating
sector.
To carry forward the heritage of
our past, we must educate ourselves
about it and share it with the rest
of the world in a contemporary context.
This is what our tourism is all
about – monuments, culture,
entertainment, food all bound together
by the warmth and graciousness of
Indian hospitality. Every tourist
guide is a cultural ambassador of
India through whom the tourists
gathers information and impressions
of our country. A well-informed
and knowledgeable tourist guide
goes a long way in creating a satisfied
and happy tourist, who in turn becomes
the biggest advertisement for Indian
tourism.
