Itinerary

Varanasi Local Sightseeing With Evening Ganga Aarti

A 5:30 AM sunrise boat ride along the Ganges, where the city's ghats have hosted Hindu ritual bathing and prayer for millennia, followed by an evening return to the river for the Ganga Aarti ceremony at Dashashwamedh Ghat. Tip: this compresses the sunrise and evening river experiences into a single day — pace yourself with rest in between, since both the early start and the evening ceremony are worth being alert for rather than exhausted through.

Sarnath & Varanasi Airport, Railway Station, or Hotel Drop

A visit to Sarnath, where the Buddha delivered his first sermon, covering the Chaukhandi Stupa, Dhamek Stupa, and the Mulagandha Kuti Vihar Temple's frescoes, before your onward transfer. Tip: since this tour is condensed into two days versus the more relaxed single-day version, confirm your onward transport timing early so Sarnath doesn't get cut short if the morning runs late.
