Varanasi Private Day Tour

Take on a spiritual journey to one of the most sacred places in India - the city of Varanasi. Revered as one of the oldest living cities in the world, experience the rich culture that has been carried over centuries. Begin your quest to find solace with a convenient pick up service from your hotel in Agra inside the vehicle size of your choice and you’ll be ready to set off to your first stop at Sarnath.

Head over to Banaras Hindu University to see the new Vishwanath temple and pay a visit to various temples including Sankat Mochan, Tulsi Manas, Durga, Tridev and Kaudi Mata right after. As the sun sets in the city, you will be experiencing 1 of the 5 rituals performed for the worship of the sacred Ganges River called the Ganga Aarti at the Dasaswamedh Ghat. Cap off your full day tour as you watch groups of young pandits, Brahmins and sadhus, draped in saffron robes waving incense sticks or holding large flaming lamps while exerting intricate and extravagant movements and emitting devotional chants and hymns. Experience a one-of-a-kind discovery and re-discovery of one’s spiritual being by visiting Varanasi, the most divine place in India.
