Fantastic Tour, Fantastic Guide! - I never do tours, but I am so glad I did this one!! You will definitely need someone to show you around Varanasi or you will miss so much! Vinay is the perfect guide, friendly, knowledgeable on everything in Varanasi, from best places to eat, to where to get the perfect picture! He speaks very good English and many other languages. He was very kind and went above and beyond to show me around Varanasi! Would highly recommend, don’t consider booking with anyone else!! Worth every penny! Thank you Vinay.

Fabulous trip. Would do it again. - We highly recommend this tour. Our tour guide was Vikesh. He is softly spoken, very knowledgeable of the area, history, religion and geography. He took us on boats, into sensitive spiritual areas, side streets and fantastic coffee bars and restaurants. I captured the most amazing photographs, Vikesh advised me when I could or couldn’t take pics. We even had pre booked seats on a rooftop for the main evening ceremony. We highly recommend this trip.

The best way to discover Varanasi! - I had an absolutely incredible experience with my tour guide Vinay. From the moment I met him, his enthusiasm and knowledge about Varanasi’s history, religion and culture shone through. I did the day tour and the morning tour(Banaras Wala Tours) with him. Vinay tailored the tour to my interests, taking me to hidden gems and providing fascinating insights at every stop. His warm personality and attention to detail made the trip unforgettable. He has great energy and your tour of Varanasi is incomplete if you have not seen Varanasi through his eyes! 100% recommend and 5 stars for Vinay!

Photography tour - The tour was good overall. Unfortunately we couldn't start until 10am as we had to move to a different hotel. When we met Vinay he immediately disappeared for 20 minutes to have breakfast which was annoying. He found a number of Sadhus for me to take photos of, though their poses could have been improved. There were not many ideas of other interesting people/ places to photograph. It was interesting to see the wholesale flower market and the wrestlers training. There was a lot of walking in the heat. I think we should have taken a tuk tuk or rickshaw and stopped at some point for refreshment.
