Discovering the Hidden Soul of Varanasi with Akash
Akash gave us one of the most authentic and insightful experiences we could have hoped for in Varanasi.
He took us far beyond the typical tourist route and showed us the hidden gems of the city. Our tour included the beautiful Nepali Temple, the powerful and humbling Manikarnika Ghat, the fascinating underground Manikarnikeshwar Mahadev Temple, the unique leaning Ratneshwar Mahadev Temple, and the historic Manikarnika Kund.
Akash was born and raised in these very streets, and it truly shows. His knowledge, stories, and deep connection to the city made everything come alive in a way we would have never experienced on our own. He is incredibly patient and thoughtfully curated the tour both in terms of timing and the places we visited.
There is simply no way we would have seen Varanasi like this without him. It felt real, raw, and very different from the usual tourist experience.
Highly recommend Akash if you want to truly understand the soul of Varanasi.

Outstanding Tour of Varanasi with Himanshu
Himanshu was an outstanding guide and made my tour of Varanasi, the Ganges River, and Sarnath one of the most memorable tours I have taken anywhere in the world. I have traveled to 52 countries and taken hundreds of tours, and this experience truly exceeded my expectations.
Himanshu was incredibly knowledgeable — honestly, his understanding of the history, culture, and significance of the places we visited was so impressive that he could easily teach a university history course. He answered every question thoughtfully, never rushed me, and struck the perfect balance between explaining the major sights and helping me experience Varanasi in a more local, authentic way.
What stood out most was how patient, professional, and genuinely passionate he was throughout the day. He made the tour feel personal rather than scripted. I would highly recommend Himanshu to anyone visiting Varanasi, and I would absolutely recommend booking with his company.

Varanasi in one day lives up to its name!
Our guide, Bharat, was exceptional! Not only friendly and good humoured on what was a long day, but efficient and oh so knowledgeable. It would have been a very long day, so to build breakfast and lunch breaks into this trip is a great idea. Sadly the sun was hiding, but nonetheless our Sunrise Cruise was wonderful, seeing Varanasi come to life in the morning. Sarnath was not just a green and welcome respite from the city, it was also a most wonderful tour of the Stoupa and archeological Buddhist artefacts, temples and statues all set within the most beautiful gardens. Bharat’s encyclopaedic knowledge of the religious history of India was astonishing, and he delivered it in a gentle and easy to understand way. SO pleased we did this trip - it really is Varanasi in one day!!

Shiv was an amazing...
Shiv was an amazing guide! He was early to my hotel, walked with me in the city center, knew the answer to all my questions and on top of that also told me many stories of Hindu gods and the history of the city. I recommend this tour for anyone trying to see not the main attractions of the city but also the temples and interesting places around the city center.

The morning boat ride was a memorable experience. Incredibly peaceful and serene, one gets the full vibe of Varanasi on the trip.
Inderjeet, our guide was professional, knowledgeable and someone who has the ability to give you the right info at the appropriate time. He was very easy to speak to, punctual and someone we would instantly recommend to.

A feast for the eyes. Highly recommend!
The tour was a feast for the eyes. We had close-up encounters with many Hindu rituals during the sunrise ceremony and throughout the morning. Vikash was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions. He provided a calm pace to the tour.
The cremation site was fascinating to see up close. Vikash brought a sense of humour to the narrative and gave us new insights into Hinduism. We highly recommend this tour. (Also, the chai was delicious).

An excellent introduction...
An excellent introduction to Ganga Aarti at sunrise. My guide's English skills were very good and he provided lucid and informative explanations. He was also willing to share his perspectives on some issues in contemporary Indian society in which I have a great interest. Thank you!
