Arvind provided a very detailed explanation of the history of this fascinating city , the Hindu burial customs and rituals. He answered our questions thoroughly and gave us insights into the cultural and religious significance of each process. The reason for the downgrade is that the tour suggests a much longer time on the water -say from Ghat to Ghat - versus the trek through the labyrinth of the old city streets; and the tour, compared to many others that we took in India in the same period (over 10), seemed relatively overpriced

Not sure if it’s worth waking up at 4:30 am to see the river and the city? Well, it was one of our best experiences so far! Starting with the morning Aarti you slowly get into that special feeling around the city of Varansi. Afterwards experiencing the scenic view from the boat ride gets you even more connected. Finally walking through the old town rounds up this beautiful morning. Also many many thanks to our great guide Sunny Khan who made this morning tour so special for us.

Arvind. Is an extremely competent guide who provides enough information while allowing you to simply absorb the experience. The early morning Aarti Ganga is well worthwhile. Have a cup of lemon chai. Go for a boat ride past the ghats. Walk through the narrow alleys of Varanasi and soak it all. up. Highly recommend this experience and Arvind.
