Overall satisfying trip and we felt safe. - Well run tour and flexible to times and plan changes. For a small increase in fee, they accommodated our request that we see Triveni Sangam in Pragyaraj instead of seeing endless amounts of temples after Kashi Vishwanath temple.

Varanasi experience - We booked them for Varanasi experience through Taj Ganges travel desk and I must it was worth every minute we spent. Be it temple tour, food tour, walking tour, Aarti and boat ride, subah a Benaras experience and trip to Chunar fort, Ramnagar fort! Mr Akhilesh is very knowledgeable and has good knack of story telling. He was thoroughly professional and patient with us. Thank for great experience

Holy Pilgrimage tour - Very well maintained Darshan to Lord Vishwanath
Ride on boat on the river ganges is a celestial experience, and to watch the Arati from the Ganga is a life time experience

Very good way to experience Varanasi - We had booked a tour group trip which did not include Varanasi and as this was to us, an important place to visit, decided to do it ourselves by booking with Varanasi Tours.
Having spent 14 days with a super guide getting us around, we had concerns as to whether this next part would work out.
We need not have worried... our airport pick up was ready and waiting, the guides were informative, timed each thing to our advantage and gave us a comprehensive insight of this important Hindu place in a short space of time.
We are very pleased we did it and would certainly recommend this company.

Exploring Benaras as a first time solo traveler - I would highly recommend the company for not just a first-time visit to Varanasi but also the seasoned ones. I spent a day and a half in the city with the sole aim of relaxing, unwinding and walking by the ghats of this beautiful city. Kunal (a veteran in the sector and a local) and his colleagues ensured that the itinerary was customized to my liking as well as maximized on the short time spent in the city. We did a mix of temples, ghats, boat rides and a fun food tour in what is probably on my list of cities one needs to repeatedly visit to truly get the essence of the place. Not once did I feel unsafe or hesitant during the time spent there and would recommend this company even for female solo travelers.

We had an awesome time! - My friend and I were lucky to get J.D as our guide. His knowledge of the history of Varanasi and his information on Hinduism and culture was vast and very enlightening. The range of sites, sequence and organisation of this tour was faultless. There were so many highlights. A tour that I will remember for a very long time. If you’re visiting Varanasi for a few days, I’d highly recommend this tour. Ask for DJ as your guide, he’s the best!

Very enjoyable - The tour was very professional and ensured we saw far more in three days than it would ever of been possible to do without local knowledge. The hotel was good. The driver excellent (on roads we would never of dreamed of driving on ourselves) in a clean, high quality air conditioned car and the guide excellent. In the hustle and bustle of the vibrant city our guide carefully smoothed our way. Things like ensuring the best boat tour on the Ganges and knowing the right amount to pay, and weaving through the back streets showing us real life along with incite into the Hindu religion / local practise. The agenda was adapted to suit our wishes, with 3 days being about the right time. We recommend. Good value and high quality.

Varanasi tour - My partner and I are an Aussie couple - we went on this tour and had such an incredible experience. We were well informed for the entirety of the tour and saw and learnt so much from our guide whose English was superb. So much of what we witnessed we may have missed if we were going it alone.
The accommodation was secure, comfortable and quite fancy and the breakfast included was a bonus. The taxi drivers were alert, polite and punctual which is comforting if you’re new to Indian roads.
We highly recommend this tour!
