A perfect guide's approach

Local guide is not only reviewing or taking good pictures. A local guide must be a true contributor, who must give the true reviews both positive and negative, help other tourists and people, not to get cheated by anyone. A local guide click factual pictures with owners and post their contact numbers , where anyone can contact them easily from anywhere. Now a days genuine and trustworthy persons are lesser. Through local guide program, it get increased by giving and sharing their experience in common platform.

Netherland couple, me(krishnasubramonian)& my mother at hotel Arya bhavan, nagercoil.

My personal experience as local guide is, I too give reviews with honest answers and pictures. I too have social media account, a couple from Netherlands contact me and I helped them as guide in Kanyakumari. In free time ,I go and guide tourists in our locality Kanyakumari, I enjoy guiding what they unknown about our place with many informations, even I go with my mom and guide them , they also very happy with me and my mother. How I got this happiness, it’s from local guide program, here I can read reviews of others and their intentions, can able to satisfy their needs. Also, a tourist can get some amount of knowledge by seeing 5-10 reviews and pictures.so, this local guide program helps society in terrible, enormous way. Thanking you Google maps.
