Great experience in varanasi

We were a group of 10 persons, and found the company very interesting on TripAdvisor. We decided to use their services and booked the Morning boat tour. The guide A J was too good. He was very humble, and explained everything to us in the best possible way. We started with a boat ride and saw the sunrise and then the best walking tour of the city. We recommend this to everyone coming to Varanasi.

With Mukund, Varanasi at its best

First trip October 2016. Mukund is a very educated and prudent guide. In the many narrow streets of Varanasi he also led us to the temples of Vishvanath, Sarnath etc. His explanations are easy and easy to understand for us due to his good German. You can really ask him anything about Indian culture, everyday life, the caste system, rituals, religion etc. and he explains understandably and impressively. He responds to the wishes of his guests. He maintains a friendly relationship, which we enjoyed very much. That's why we contacted him a second time and booked him with pleasure for a reunion for November 2019. Mukund again guided us very professionally. It was a fantastic, authentic and a super refresher of incredible India. Mukund is highly recommended! He's great.

Operator response

Thanks a lot for sharing your feedback with us. Mukund is one of the best German speaking Guides in Varanasi. Feel free to contact us for any travel related assistance in India.

Great boat tour on the Ganges!

We had the sun rise morning boat tour with Anish. He met us at our hotel at 5:45am and we had a little walk and then on the boat followed by another walk near the golden temple. Anish was amazing and answered all my questions about the city, religion and customs in a way I could understand. I much appreciated his calm demeaner and patience to explain many things. The morning was very calm, in an otherwise hectic city, and it was a very great and safe experience. I highly recomend this tour for anyone visiting the ganges who would like a legit guide with great knowledge. Thank you Anish!

Catching the sun.

Excellent way to enrich ones morning. Tour was both informative and enjoyable. To experience the sights from a boat, gave a different perspective of events. Highly recommend.

Varanasi Boat Tour

This tour was definitely one of the most interesting. You start the day early in the morning just when the city is waking up, our guide picked us up from the hotel and took us to the main ghat where we were able to take amazing pictures and he explained how and why the morning ritual was done. Later we took a boat which took us along the river while the guide explained loads of interesting facts about hinduism and the indian culture. We finally went around the city where we learned about traditions. Our guide was very knowledgable and very open when answering all kind of questions, which was great because we felt very comfortable and we were able to ask everything we were curious about. Also he was funny and joked quite a lot and that made our tour even smoother. We were back at the hotel ready for breakfast.
