More than an ideal guide. - I am so glad I found out about Prakash. He is more than an ideal guide. Prakash really looked after me and took care of every little detail. He would double and triple check things to make sure everything would go smoothly. For example, Prakash knows the restaurants in the area and can refer to a place to eat that can satisfy your dietary restrictions. I have a new friend in Prakash.

An amazing, knowledgeable Varanasi guide! - Prakesh is a really wonderful guide. Really knowledgeable, knows a lot of history and was very responsive to our questions. The tour is at a nice pace and you definitely get to see parts of the city you would miss on your own. I’ve used several guides on this India trip and Prakesh is definitely the best. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him. Thank you Prakesh. Book him, you won’t regret it!

best Guided tours by Prakash - We have been blessed to receive the guidance of Prakash for experiencing Varanasi. There is history and mythology in every corner of Varanasi and without Prakash’s insights we would not be aware of the rich heritage of this divine place. I had travelled with my mother who is a senior citizen and Prakash made the tour extremely smooth for her as well. Along with his professionalism, he is extremely thoughtful and a well informed person. There is so much more to know and learn from him. Our trip to Varanasi became complete and very special because of the guided tours with Prakash for two days which we shall always cherish until we visit next time . i would highly recommend experiencing Varanasi through the guided tours by Prakash as he is not only the best guide but a very good soul.

Great tours of Varanasi with Prakash - We spent two half days in Varanasi with Prakash, and it was a genuinely wonderful experience. He showed us the city in a way that felt authentic, taking the time to explain not just what we were seeing, but why it mattered. From the ghats to the narrow lanes, every walk came with stories, cultural context, and small details we would never have picked up on by ourselves. One of the highlights was the street food. We felt completely comfortable following his recommendations and loved being able to experience local food without hesitation. Despite the tours being half days, they never felt rushed. Prakash was patient, attentive, and flexible with the pace, answering all our questions and making sure we were comfortable throughout! Highly recommended!!

Super impressive experiences! - The tour with Prakash through Varanasi impressed us very much. In addition to the main destinations, he also showed us quieter, less visited places that you would not find without a guide. With his in-depth background knowledge, he was able to answer all our questions. Thank you - the tour with Prakash was one of our highlights on our tour of North India!
