What Can You Expect?

Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Assi Ghat, Sdkfjl, Varanasi 221005 India

Pick-up at 09:30 Hrs from your Hotel and drive to visit to Death hostel with your guide. Mukti Bhavan provides accommodation to those who wish to breathe their last in Varanasi. Sounds strange, doesn’t it ? The fact that 15,000-odd people have died at Mukti Bhavan ever since its inception might help you grasp the reality of this phenomenon.Hindus believe that the one who dies in Varanasi attains moksha, or salvation. Dying in Varanasi is believed to help the soul break out of the endless cycle of birth and death.Though these beliefs are highly debatable, every year, hordes of believers flock to this holy city, hoping to attain redemption in death here. Most of these are old, retired people who are expecting death and wish to embrace it in the holy land of Kashi (Varanasi).

+ The trip was well organized. The guide was punctual. The trip was by tuktuk + There were no additional costs. + Getting to know the place is unique. It is certainly rare to get an insight into everything on such a tour and to have access everywhere. + The guide was very familiar with the people at the destination. + The guide was very knowledgeable about everything and spoke good English + The guide was very friendly + The tour contained no unpleasant surprises such as store visits with pressure to buy + You felt safe at all times Minus: The duration is 2 to 3 hours. The price is very high.

I was disappointed by this experience because it was absolutely not what was advertised. I paid for a visit to Mukti Bhavan, the famous death hostel. However, I was taken to Mumukshu Bhavan, which is an old age home and where there is maybe one death every ten years, as the Manager himself admitted. Also the round trip from the hotel took 1 h 45 min, instead of the 4 hour tour that was advertised. When I complained to the local tour company, the owner, Vivek, lied to me saying that Mukti Bhavan and Mumukshu Bhavan were two names for the same place, which is a total lie. When I showed him the street address for Mukti Bhavan, which clearly shows that it is a different place, he dtopped communicating with me. This tour is a scam. Save your money and ask your hotel reception to contact Mukti Bhavan on your behalf if you are interested.

I was interested to see the only place I'm aware of in the world where people can go with the specific intention of having their spiritual needs prioritised at the moment of their physical death. Although the hostel was empty at the actual time of my visit, I understand over 40,000 people have done this at Mukti Bhawan since its inception in the early 1900's. The manager, Mr Dubey, was charming and informative and the experience of simply having visited this unique place was satisfying and thought provoking. My guide, Chandan Yadav, spoke excellent English and was a treasure trove of local cultural and historical points of interest. In fact, he was so good I hired him all over again for more exploration of Varanasi the next day!! Thank you ... all in all, a wonderful visit.

Our guide was professional and on time. He picked us up at our hotel and took us on both occasions safely to the destinations. For the death hostel it was informative and we learnt a lot. We also visited the Agori Ashram which was also insightful. For the village tour we got picked up in a very nice heated car and taken with care to the village were we learnt so much. Our guide was well informed and made us feel comfortable and happy! Super grateful thank you! We are two foreigners who highly recommend this company!
