Best guided tour I had in India!

Ram was such an incredible person to explore Varanasi with! He speaks excellent English and Spanish, his love for India and his hometown Varanasi made the tour a truly authentic experience. I had so much fun with him—he's constantly joking and always has a big smile on his face:) Varanasi is such a special city, and I feel like I got to know it very well with him. He took me to one of his friend's tea stalls where I had the best chai I've tasted in all of India! I also did the boat ride, and it was absolutely worth it. Watching the sun set behind the ghats was magical, and we arrived just in time to witness the evening aarti. I’ll definitely be repeating this experience when I come back!
