Excellent tour with knowledgeable guide
I had a wonderful 2 days in Varanasi with Kunal. He is from Varanasi and knows so much about the city. As well as the classic boat rides on the Ganges we visited Sarnath, where Buddha gave his first sermon, and walked through the alleys and bazaars, trying delicious street food on the way.
Operator response
Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re delighted to hear that you had such an enriching experience with Kunal. Your appreciation means a lot to us.
With Warm Regards,

Awesome tour arrangement with fantastic guide
Ashish from Banaras Tours did a fantastic job in arranging our tour at Ayodhya. From the initial contact until our tour ended, he made sure we were very comfortable and kept in touch constantly. Our tour guide Akhilesh was extremely competent and very kind to my senior parents. He explained in detail about the history of each place we visited. We visited all the major attractions in and around Ayodhya in a private vehicle in less than two days. The darshan experience was hassle free and we literally walked in and out of the temple despite a lot of rush. Overall the tour was amazing and made our entire experience simply wonderful, we will definitely book again and be back soon!
Operator response
Thank you so much for your heartfelt review! We’re thrilled to hear that Ashish and Akhilesh from Banaras Tours made your Ayodhya tour so seamless and memorable.

We’re delighted that Akhilesh’s knowledge and kindness added value to your experience and that you could explore Ayodhya’s major attractions hassle-free, including the darshan at the temple.
Your kind words truly inspire us to continue delivering exceptional service. We can’t wait to welcome you back for another wonderful adventure! Please don’t hesitate to reach out whenever you’re ready to plan your next trip.
