If you weren't in Varanasi, you weren't in India. All population groups in India come together in Varanasi. Life and death are drawn - We were in Varanasi with friends for 3.5 days and were greeted by Mr. Mukund Lal,
Unique experiences, let yourself be guided. Very good! We experienced India from all sides.
The German-speaking Mukund Lal brought us closer to India

Rohit was a wonderful... - Rohit was a wonderful guide and customised our experience to suit us. The river is both beautiful and mystical and well worth getting up early.
Rohit also helped us arrange a visit to the temple

Gang, dawn and boat - Sonu is a great guide and very attractive person with intensive inner energy, he told a lot about Varanasi history, legends of Gang. It was very interesting, comfortable and much more beautiful experience to meet the sunrise like that. also it was very fun time spent. Thanks a lot

Very unique experience, truly great guide - If you plan to visit Varanasi then book with Unique Experiences. We had an awesome two days with our friendly guide who by the way speaks perfect German. He gave us so much background information not only about the sights of Varanasi but whole India. Everything was perfectly organized.

A perfect way to start the day in Varanasi - A perfect way to start the day in Varanasi

The morning boat trip was a very relaxed but interesting way to start a day in Varanasi and I would recommend to anyone who wants to learn a bit more about the city / culture and see the city from a different perspective.
My guide (Mr Rohit) was informative, approachable and friendly, providing useful insight and answering even my most ridiculous questions. He took the tour at an easy pace, giving me plenty of time to absorb and not just be overwhelmed with information.
What set the tour apart were the small touches I haven't seen provided elsewhere - meeting me directly at my hostel, a good cup of chai halfway, a trip to the sands on the opposite bank for some alone time etc. These were really appreciated and added to the relaxed feeling of the experience.
As an aside, the young boatman had great control and his calm navigation added to the feeling of comfort.

This tour and the guide is VERY good! - Very much enjoyed our early morning boat tour with Sonu. He is very polite and very attentive. Everything is very well organized and timed - from your first tea to the boat itself. You’ve got to see amazing Varanasi views on his tour. And he explains everything. Would definitely recommend him as your guide in Varanasi.

Sunrise on the Gange - Good experience with the boat for sunrise. We spent more or less two hours sailing the Gange river and we had the possibility to see how the sky's colours change as well as traditional life along the banks river. Sonu explained us a lot of things about Indian culture.
I really suggest this experience.

Amazing knowledge and perfect service - Visited Varanasi and was accompanied by Mr.Mukund fir three days who proved to be one of the best tourguides and the only one around speaking fluent German. He showed me the best places for my photographies, explained everything of the cultural and religious aspects which are not always easy to understand for Westerners.One of the best services I ever experienced in my worldwide travels!
Hr. Mukund spricht fließend Deutsch und bringt einem die Kultur Indiens verständlich näher! Perfekter Service!
