Excellent trip curator and tour companion - Vimal is an exceptional tour companion and trip curator. He has a vast knowledge repository of all things Benaras and is full of anecdotes and interesting trivia that leave you spellbound. My family loved his guided tours, we couldn’t have enough of him and requested him to stay with us throughout our stay of 5 days. He is very quick to leverage his network and help wherever required. A+++ highly recommended

Great guide! - Vimal was an amazing tour guide. I learned so much about the history and culture of Varanasi during our day and a half together. Despite the heat and crowded conditions, I was always safe. He was flexible and changed things up based on my interests. I would recommend highly to anyone looking for a wonderful tour guide!

Kashi comes alive thanks to Vimalji's wonderful story telling - Excellent trip of Varanasi made more memorable thanks to the meticulous planning by our guide Vimalji. We were there for less than 48 hours but within this time, Vimalji introduced us to the place, it's history , it's wonderful cuisine, the local fervour and also ensured that all the rituals we had to perform was done without much hassles. Thank you for the wonderful time. Hope to meet again some day in Kashi Vimalji.

Visit Varanasi with a guide as God intended - We had to change guides at the end of our route through India, in Varanasi, and we couldn't have had a better guide. He knows the city inside out, he has a very fun personality and the two days we were with him he made the trip much more enjoyable and fun. 100% recommended if you want to learn more about India in a fun way. In addition to that, he even helped us with haggling when buying.
