3 Days Trip to Varanasi

3 Days Trip to Varanasi

2 Nights / 3 days Varanasi – Sarnath – Varanasi

Tour Overview

Varanasi, the city on the edges of river Ganga has been known by the other three names also which are Benaras, Banaras, and Kashi through its three millennia-long histories.

The history of this place is more exceptional as its great fellows like Athens, Jerusalem and Beijing have passed away from their old path of life. Any trial to summarize the essence of Varanasi is to touch the basics of Indian Spiritual Thought. Much of India’s comprehensive essence stems from here.

It is a place where mosques constructed on holy temples are saved by the law, a place where a religious Shiite Muslim musician named as Bismillah Khan and a devotee of Hindu Goddess Saraswati played shehnai at the entrance of Vishwanath Temple. It is considered as a prominent destination for spiritual hunt.

Tour Highlights:

  • Witness the spiritual aura of Kashi Vishwanath Temple and other famous temples in Varanasi
  • Experience a mesmerizing Ganga Aarti at Dashashwamedh Ghat in the evening
  • Enjoy a serene boat ride on River Ganga during sunrise
  • Explore the ancient Sarnath – the land where Lord Buddha delivered his first sermon
  • Stroll through the vibrant local markets of Varanasi for traditional silk, handicrafts, and souvenirs

    Highly recommended for Spanish speaking travelers!!

    “We traveled 2 women, from Montevideo-Uruguay🇺🇾 It was our 1st time in India. After fluid and attentive exchange via WhatsApp, we decided to hire private tour. Our chauffeur Mohan and his expert handling, allowed us to be calm in the middle of the chaotic traffic of the big cities Delhi, Jaipur and Agra. Of course, the guides of those cities, were correct but not very good, since they provide the information in "autopilot mode " To the classic golden triangle tour, we added a couple of extensions...”
