Varanasi

Upon arrival at Varanasi Airport/Railway Station, our representatives will meet and greet you. Later, transfer to your pre-booked hotel and check in. After refreshing, in the evening, experience the Ganga Aarti at Dashashwamedh Ghat. The Ganga Aarti involves songs sung to praise the deity by offering lamps, and it is a beautiful, resonant, and majestic spectacle with precise choreography involving rituals performed by several priests, accompanied by the sound of bells, drums, cymbals, and Sanskrit mantras. You can watch it from the ghat or from the waterside in a boat (Direct Payment).

After the aarti, return to the hotel for an overnight stay in Varanasi.

In the morning at 5 AM, visit the Old Kashi Vishwanath Temple, Annapurna Temple, Vishalakshi Temple, and Kal Bhairav Temple, then return to the hotel. After breakfast, proceed with the Temple Tour, visiting the New Kashi Vishwanath Temple (BHU), also known as Birla Temple, Sankat Mochan Temple, Durga Temple, and Tulsi Manas Mandir. Post the temple tour, take an excursion to the Buddhist town of Sarnath. Buddha came to Sarnath to preach his message of the middle way to nirvana after he achieved Enlightenment at Bodhgaya and gave his famous First Sermon at the Deer Park here in Isipatana. Visit the Mulagandhakuti Vihara, Sarnath Museum, Chaukhandi Stupa, Dhamekh Stupa, Dharmarajika Stupa, and Monastery.

After sightseeing, return to the hotel for an overnight stay in Varanasi.

Early morning at 5 AM, go for a Walking Tour at the Ghats to see the sunrise, also called the Subah-E-Banaras tour, which means the mornings of Banaras. The old buildings, ashrams, and places along the riverside look as colorful as a rainbow when the sunlight hits them. People taking baths, performing rituals, and worshiping the Sun are all part of the Subah-e-Banaras. We start the boat ride from Assi Ghat and go all the way to Manikarnika Ghat (the largest cremation ground of Banaras) and back to Assi Ghat. This tour combines a boat ride (Direct Payment) and a walking tour of the southern part of the old city to explore the cultural diversity of Varanasi.

Then return to the hotel. After breakfast, check out from the hotel and you will be dropped off at Varanasi Airport/Railway Station for your return/onward journey.

The tour ends with sweet memories!
