Very interesting and informative! Highly recommend!
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.
This was an excellent tour. Seeing the Ganges at Dawn was a magical experience. We were there on a festival day and our guide was excellent in negotiating all of the crowds. He was also extremely accommodating in taking us to see a step well, which was not on the normal tour.
Early morning tour with guide with huge knowledge about habits and customs. I got very inspired by this old culture thank you!
Our boat trip with Vinod was amazing - a peaceful and informative experience. Seeing varanasi in the morning is a must do and Vinod made us feel very welcome and was happy to answer any of our questions. Would highly recommend
友人とバラナシを訪問しました。40年ぶりです。時間が限られていたので夜と朝、サルナートの3つのツアーを利用しました。 サルナートから空港へ行く道で車が、事故による渋滞で止まってしまいました。 でも、ガイドさん運転手さんの素早くかつ適切な判断で、脇道に入り、飛行機に問題なく搭乗しました。ありがとうございました。 I visited Varanasi with a friend. It's been 40 years since my last visit. We had limited time, so we took three tours, one in the evening and one in the morning, and one in Sarnath. On the way from Sarnath to the airport, our car was stuck in traffic due to an accident. However, the guide and the driver made a quick and appropriate decision to take a side road, and we were able to board the plane without any problems. Thank you very much.
We did the visit in Spanish, both the agency and the guide were extremely courteous and fast in communications . it is worth the price paid because it is hardly something that is redone twice in life... and a little organization does not hurt. We used to travel alone but this time it was worth taking a tour
Having experienced the boat tour on the Ganges in Varanasi we were pleasantly surprised by how beautiful this ancient town has survived the test of time Our guide was knowledgeable and kept us well informed on the history of this beautiful place
Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m truly glad to hear that you enjoyed the boat tour and felt the timeless beauty of Varanasi. It was a pleasure guiding you and sharing the rich history of this ancient and spiritual city. Wishing you many more memorable journeys ahead! – Indrajeet Kumar 📞/WhatsApp: +91 9415206372
Vinod was our guide and he was excellent! He was born in Varanasi and is very passionate about his city. He was very knowledgeable and was always helpful. A must do when in Varanasi. We did 2 other tours with this company and both were great. (See my reviews on Aarti at night and the sarnath Buddhist tour)
Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re delighted to hear that you had such a positive experience with Vinod. His passion for Varanasi truly shines through, and we’re glad he could share his deep knowledge and hospitality with you. It means a lot to know you enjoyed all three tours — the evening Aarti, Sarnath, and this one. Your support and thoughtful reviews encourage us to keep offering meaningful and memorable experiences in this sacred city. – Indrajeet Kumar 📞/WhatsApp: +91 9415206372
Since all the boats were not out at the festival, it was a walking tour instead. The car is an SUV and you get off about 1km before the gart. At the time of booking, there was no Japanese on the guide's language section menu, but if you wanted, a guide who spoke Japanese came. The pace of the walk was also slow, and I was able to enjoy it with peace of mind in a gentle person.
素敵なレビューをありがとうございます!お祭りの影響でボートが出せなかったにもかかわらず、代わりに散策ツアーを楽しんでいただけて嬉しいです。また、日本語ガイドのご希望にお応えできたこと、そしてガイドの穏やかな対応にご満足いただけたことに安心しました。 今後も快適で思い出に残る体験をご提供できるよう努めてまいります。またぜひバラナシにお越しください! – Indrajeet 📞/WhatsApp: +91 9415206372
