Reviews: Full Day Varanasi Private Tour with Temples, Ghats & Rituals

Hi-Molu is a professional with 30+year experience. He showed around and ensured I was safe throughout the trip which is a priority for female adventurers. I am not a very curious person so let him take me around and show as required. I would recommend you ask questions or set expectations from the start. I also had an opportunity to shop at the local factory, felt the prices were high but I am not too aware of the type of silks so gave into the pressure of purchasing 2 sarees :) you may want to plan accordingly. The owner of the shop is soo kind, he will flip the entire store for you. I was offered free snacks like tamatar chat, chai and lassi which was not included and covered in the plan. Guess I got lucky as I did not have change in most places, pls carry 10s,20s,50s with you handy. For template Darshan, I was able o skip the queue and cover sugam Darshan for which there was no charge but I ended up paying the pandit who helped me 500, be chanted some mantras so I felt like giving back. Boat ride was solo and peaceful, I had a very big boat to myself, Molu did call out the type of ghats but I did not dwell into the history and neither did he (worked for me) Ganga Arti was on a terrace where I got the 3rd seat as the water level was higher at the ghat. An interesting but congested experience, pls ensure to see the ghat one which is open and has lots of space. Appreciate your support Molu. All the best!

I met Prakash through a recommendation during my first visit to Varanasi, and I couldn’t have asked for a better guide. He speaks excellent English and is an impressive, trustworthy, self-made young family man. Exploring Varanasi with Prakash was an unforgettable experience — from navigating the winding streets to discovering hidden gems and local traditions, I often thought, “I couldn’t have done this without him!” He even took me shopping for sarees and oils, riding through the city so I could find exactly what I was looking for. His kindness, patience, and genuine care made me feel completely safe and looked after. If you’re looking for a reliable and knowledgeable local tour guide who goes above and beyond to make your Varanasi experience seamless and memorable, look no further than Prakash ji. Highly recommended! 🥰

We had the most incredible tour of Varanasi, lead by our very knowledgeable & talented guide, Bharat. We started with a sunrise boat ride which was extremely moving and peaceful. Then we went around a few temples and sacred places where we learned about their history and culture. Bharat is very knowledgeable and has great visual aids to help tell the history and religion. In the evening, we went to the sacred evening ritual where we had great seats to watch the ceremony. It was so moving to see so many people coming to watch/participate every day. Thank you again to our guide Bharat, and our great driver! If you are traveling to Varanasi, this tour is an absolute must do!

Fantastic tour that went to the parts other tours cannot reach. Went to places we would never have known about and might have been quite daunting without a guide. The trip to the funery ghat was humbling and really showed the spirituality of Hinduism.
