Culturele en spirituele paden van de oude stad Varanasi Begeleide wandeltocht
Beschrijving
Varanasi of traditioneel bekend als Kashi (wat licht betekent), wordt verondersteld de oudste stad op de planeet te zijn die er vandaag staat. We hebben mensen met veel hoop en verwachtingen naar Varanasi zien komen, maar meestal voelden we dat ze Varanasi verlieten zonder de ware essentie van de stad, haar glorieuze verleden en spirituele geschiedenis te begrijpen. Wist je dat in de oude geschiedenis mensen ervan droomden alleen in Varanasi te sterven en nergens anders? Varanasi is de belangrijkste plaats geweest voor mensen die op zoek waren naar bevrijding en verlichting, zelfs Boeddha werd dichtbij Varanasi verlicht. 1. Deze wandeltocht is een reis, van het verkennen van Varanasi in zijn ware zin, een geweldige inductie van de stad, haar geschiedenis, haar levendige cultuur en haar mensen met veel prachtige verhalen over de stad, leuke feiten en dingen die je moet doen in de stad. 2. Je zult de pareltjes van de stad verkennen in een unieke stijl van ‘infotainment’ die je gemakkelijk zelf zou missen en je reis naar Varanasi echt speciaal maakt.

DO NOT recommend this tour company. We booked our tour in the morning and it was subsequently confirmed. We sent a message to confirm we were at the meeting point and 5 minutes before the start time they called to say they would not be coming. Our booking still says confirmed. Unacceptable and extremely disappointing.
Very informative walk. We were taken into areas which were quiet for India! Where we could hear the guide talk, while being shown parts of varanesi that you wouldn't necessarily find yourself.
Manish saved our stay in Varanasi!!…We arrived without knowing the streets were going to be at their absolute craziest busy because of many thousands of pilgrims arriving for the Kumbh Mela…we were completely overwhelmed, but Manish met us at our hotel in the afternoon and very patiently guided us through the crowds explaining what was happening and why along the way. Varanasi is like nowhere on earth and thank you Manish for allowing us to leave it with some understanding and fond memories.
Fantastic tour that went to the parts other tours cannot reach. Went to places we would never have known about and might have been quite daunting without a guide. The trip to the funery ghat was humbling and really showed the spirituality of Hinduism.
Manish is an excellent tour guide. We saw many off the beaten path sites which was exactly what we asked for. He is very knowledgeable and helpful. We would have rated him 5 stars except that he consistently would race ahead of us despite asking him to keep an eye on where we were.
Had the best tour ever with Manish! He's so friendly, it felt like going on a tour with a friend instead of a tourguide! He made a lot of effort to give me a very awesome experience! Thank you so much, Manish! Highly recommend it to go on a tour with him!
Our guide was friendly and good speaker of english. He took us to different parts of Varanasi and provided with a lot of useful information about the history, traditions, gods etc. This tour is a good way to start your trip in Varanasi. Totally recommend it.
The tour with Manish was very interesting and was full of information that we did not know and helped us understand the importance of Varanasi. Our guide was very kind to wait for us since we arrived late, and he also took some beautiful photos of us! He was also very easy going and easy to understand! if we would have to recommend something for improvement would be to offer the opportunity to see the ceremony from the boat or maybe to watch it in the company of the guide so he can explain it. But overall it was an excellent experience! thanks Manish for the tour!!
Manish was so friendly and patience. He answer all our questions because we wanted to know more about the culture and understand the city. Was so necessary the visit with him.
Nice informative guided walking tour of Varanasi. City is very crowded and noisy which makes it difficult to hear the guide, however Abhi did his best.
