Varanshi Custom Tour - I would wholeheartedly recommend My Tour Guide Varanashi (Vimal Pathak)!! We used him for our trip to Varanashi, Prayagraj and Ayodhya in Jan 2025 and everything was just perfect!! As soon as I reached out to them for initial query, Vimalji reached me back with details and customized it per our needs. While arranging the tour, I discovered that Varanashi trip operators/managers are still not that tourist friendly/responsive as compared to other more travelled Indian Destinations like Rajasthan or Kerala. However, one only needs one good tour operator and Vimalji was the one. He gave a straightforward fixed price that included car, driver, guide service in all three cities for 6 day custom journey and did not even demand any particular amount of deposit but left to me to decide which showed the trust.
In Varanashi, he himself acted as guide for first two days and explained all historical significance of the city, took us to Kal Bhairav and Kashi Vishwanath temple, pulled his strings to get us in quickly, arranged for Rudrabhishek etc. He also took us to some famous places for enjoying delicious chats and other specialties that we foodies loved. In evening, he took us for Ganga Aarti and arranged special seating which was just perfect to experience the splendid event. He was very timely, polite, and flexible and did not push any particular places (as many other do to get commissions).
He also arranged guides in other two cities - Prayagraj and Ayodhya who also turned out to be excellent guides. I would certainly use his services again and overall experience included everything that a well-heeled customer is looking for. Har Har Mahadev!!

Fantastic company and guide to Varanasi! - My partner and I did a private tour of Varanasi with Mr.Vinit, we are so glad we did! He was very knowledgeable of the history of the city, the culture and customs, the philosophy and traditions behind it and its streets and foods. His english was great (he can also speak Spanish) and his explanations were thorough. We were very curious and there was no silly question he wouldn't answer. When we mentioned that we were hungry, he even took us to eat some snacks typical from Varanasi from good hygienic places. We can highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in culture, philosophy and architecture, we were delighted with Mr.Vinit's expertise. Finally, communication with Mr.Vimal (who arranged the tour) was easy and straightforward, we patiently helped us arrange a time that suits our schedule.

Relaxing Tour with experienced Tour Manager - My elderly parents and I had a great trip to Varanasi courtesy Mr.Vimal Pathak. He seamlessly planned the itinerary end to end keeping in mind my parents age and interests. He allocated Mr.Arvind as our Tour Manager who went above and beyond to ensure my parents have a comfortable Darshan of the temples and experience the ghaats and culture of Bangalore! We had such a peace of mind only because we availed of his services from Car, Tour, main attractions and coordinating with Panditji etc. Would highly recommend My Tour Guide Varanasi and Mr Vimal’s Tour planning and guidance 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Unique experience - perfect organization - We booked our private tour with Vimal from Germany and after 3 full days we are completely satisfied. Everything went perfectly and our guide Mukund Lal looked after us very well and, in addition to the tours, also introduced us to the customs and customs of Varanasi.
A unique experience. We can highly recommend Vimal as an organizer for Varanasi.
Our special thanks go to Mukund Lal, who left none of our questions unanswered due to his excellent knowledge of German. Mukund also lives right in the old town and knows his way around very well.
All in all, definitely recommended!!!

Vimal is an exceptional tour guide! - Vimal Sir was nothing short of a Blessing for our family trip to Varanasi. He was beyond exceptional in all regards as our tour guide. He made sure all of us, especially our elderly parents were well taken care of during the whole tour. He ensured that we don't wait in lines wherever possible, got us the best viewing seats for the Ganga Aarti, gave us great insights into/experience the beautiful history, culture, local life, food, and architecture - he left no stone unturned. We couldn't have covered and experienced this much of Varanasi without Vimal. We have had tour guides in the past, but none of them compare to Vimal and his enigmatic personality. He is such a warm, friendly and fantastic person, who is fun, jovial, and caring just like family. If you are ever in Varanasi and are considering getting Vimal as a tour guide don't hesitate for even a second. You won't find another tour guide like Vimal easily. Thanks a ton Vimal Sir! We will always remember you and this Beautiful Tour of Varanasi.
