Great guided tour in foggy morning - Started the morning with some Chai at Kashi Cafe. Then to Morning Aarti performance. We had a quite foggy morning on Ganga but thanks to RJ it was very interesting and we learnt alot about the places we visited. A nice experience and a must for Varanasi visit.

Worth the early rise!! - Very good communications on what’s app before the tour, establishing itinery and meeting point. I was picked up at the hotel and driven to the morning ceremony in ASI Ghat - it was really quite special. My guide gave me just enough information and answered any questions. The boat ride was perfect and although it wasn’t a spectacular sunrise that day, it was a beautiful experience. There was Lots of time and opportunities to take photos along the ghats. Safely escorted to a tuk tuk to return to my hotel in time for breakfast. Thank you Arti. Recommended! Recommended***

Sunrise boat tour - We started With a very nice cup of Chai at 5.45 am. We then watched a sunrise fire ceremony then got on our boat. We were rowed down to the main ghat while watching the sun rise over the Ganga. Our guide was very informitave about All the various ghats, forts, and temples along the way. It was a much slower ride back upstream but we got back to our starting point by about 8.30 am.
