Rajeev Sharma

Rajeev Sharma is a Varanasi-born pilgrimage guide with more than 40 years of experience leading pilgrims across Ayodhya, Varanasi, Prayagraj, Naimisharanya and Bodhgaya. He is fluent in Hindi, Telugu and Kannada and is the lead guide voice of Experience My India.

He has more than 40 years of guiding experience, having led tens of thousands of pilgrims through the sacred cities of the Ganga plain since long before Ayodhya's recent transformation. That long memory informs every trip.

He was born and raised in Varanasi, among its ghats, temples and pandits, which is where his deep understanding of pilgrimage began. That Kashi upbringing shapes how he guides across the whole circuit.

Varanasi is the heart of North Indian pilgrimage, so growing up there gives a lived understanding of ritual, temple custom and the rhythm of a holy city. It means guidance from inside the tradition, not from a script.

Yes. He is the named lead guide of Experience My India and the author voice behind varanasiayodhyatours.com, with decades of on-ground experience. You can reach him directly on WhatsApp at +91 7302265809.

Four decades of experience, a Varanasi upbringing, fluency in Hindi, Telugu and Kannada, and a commitment to honest advice over upselling, including never charging for the free darshan. The multilingual care for South Indian pilgrims is a particular difference.

Through Experience My India, the team has welcomed more than 50,000 guests since 2018, with Rajeev as the lead guide voice. His personal experience spans more than 40 years.
