Private Tour of Varanasi

4-hour tour

After being picked up from your hotel at 9 am, you'll start your 4-hour tour of Varanasi. The first stop will be the Ramnagar Fort, located on the eastern bank of the river Ganges. Constructed in 1750, the palace-fortress shows some signs of decay, but its intricately carved balconies are notable.

Next is the tomb of Lal Khan, a notable Mughal noble and a significant example of Mughal architecture in Uttar Pradesh. Following that, you'll visit the University of Varanasi, located in a large green area suitable for a peaceful stroll. The tour includes visits to two well-known temples: Shri Durga and Shri Kasi Vishwanath, known for their vibrant façades.

Lastly, you will visit the iconic ghats, the stepped embankments leading to the Ganges, where you can observe the daily lives of locals.

9-hour tour

Starting at 10 am, this tour follows the same route as the 4-hour tour, including Saint Mary's Cathedral. This private tour option also extends to Sarnath, the birthplace of Buddhism, where you can explore the ruins of notable temples and learn about ancient Buddhist traditions.
