From Ivanka Trump to the aam foreign traveller, women tour guides are much in demandLast week, Jayanti 'Jonty' Rajagopalan shepherded Ivanka Trump around Golconda Fort. The US President's daughter spent an hour at the monument, says the tour guide, recalling her interest in the fort's acoustics. But the country's growing tribe of female tour guides is used to dealing with persistent hawkers, jealous touts, demands for selfies with expat customers, and the odd lecherous driver. "We are seen only as 'female guides' not as guides. We should get the same opportunities as men," Monika says.Some tourists think that India is only about poverty.
