Enjoy varanasi from the Ganga, peaceful view - I am so happy that I decided to do the boat ride with Suno. The view of Varanasi from the Ganga is something special. You will see the morning rituals performed along the Ghats, get close to the burning ghat, and have a great view of the many palaces and temples. Suno knows a lot about the town, and is easy to understand. I strongly recommend this boat ride.

Must Do in Varanasi - My boat tour with Sonu was simply spectacular! The sunrise was breathtaking, casting a golden glow over the serene waters as we sailed. The buzz of the town waking up added to the charm of the experience. Sonu's knowledge and helpfulness made the journey even more enjoyable. Through our conversation, I learned of his deep love for his city, which was evident in his enthusiasm for sharing its beauty with us. I also learned that Sonu is an award-winning photographer! Highly recommend this unforgettable experience, worth waking up early for!
