Fun and engaging guided tour of Kashi - Ravi is a very enthusiastic yet very considerate of his groups' special needs. He takes good care of all of the people in the group. He engages everyone and makes everyone comfortable so that they can enjoy the tour and ask any and every question without a second thought. Ravi has a calm, patient, knowledgeable and pleasant personality which is what one would expect from a great guide. We loved our guided tour with Ravi and I shall wholeheartedly recommend Ravi's guided tours for Kashi. We had a great time. Keep up the good work Ravi. We need more guides like you

Ravi was so knowledgable and friendly - Ravi was so knowledgable and friendly - we did both the private boat tour and the heritage walking tour. As a group of four Ravi helped us navigate Varanasi and answered all the question we had. Would definitely recommend this tour!

Unforgettable tour, 100% recommended - Some cities are easier to explore than others, and visiting them with a guide can be so much more enriching than doing it on your own. That was our experience with Ravi, an experienced local guide who explains everything in detail and takes you to the most iconic places in Varanasi. We learned a lot about Hinduism, the different ceremonies held here, and the pilgrimage process to this sacred city. We’re absolutely delighted with how the tour went. Thank you so much!

Incredible experience get a guide like Ravi - Varanasi was an incredible 3 days .. felt like an ancient mystic experience like no other place we have been we had the best guide in Ravi who planned a perfect 3 day itinerary ensuring we experienced the very best of Varanasi . We loved it all . Ravi was recommended to us & we felt confident & reassured from our earliest communication that we had found the right guide for us . Ravi I is a licensed government guide & as a Varanasi local we felt safe & able to enter temples & sacred places with his guidance & assurance . We highly recommend using Ravi to make the most of your time in this ancient City . Graham & Lee

The most professional, kind and friendly guide - Ravi is a government authorised guide and he custom designed a tour for me after asking me questions to understand my purpose in visiting Varanasi. This meant I made the most of the two days I had. He organised a special ritual with a priest that I wanted to conduct for my grandfather. After I left Varanasi I ran into some issues with my onward transport and he offered support and advice. I consider him a true friend and as a solo female traveler I felt safe and supported in what was a very busy time in the city. Thanks Ravi - I will never forget this trip. You made it truly magical.

Ravi is an amazing guide, would highly recommended him💯 - My daughter and I spent 3 days with Ravi in Varanasi. He is such a gentleman, and so accommodating to suit your travel itinerary to your needs. We arrived at the train station in Varanasi the day before we were due to catch up with Ravi… this guy was amazing . He met us at the train station and organised transport to our hotel… which was through a labyrinth of alleyways, so daunting for first time travellers to India. Ravi is so passionate about his heritage and culture and extremely knowledgeable. We had the best time with Ravi over 3 days.We have made a lifetime friend with Ravi. I would highly recommend Ravi 💯

Excellent experience in Varanasi - We had a walking tour with Ravi in Varanasi, and it was an excellent experience. I still remember some of the fascinating facts he shared with us (which is uncommon for me). I really appreciated how clearly he explained everything. His English is excellent—he speaks slowly, loudly, and in a way that’s easy to understand. Ravi also guided us on how to behave in different places, which was very helpful. Additionally, he recommended a few shops where we could buy souvenirs at reasonable prices (much cheaper than nearby options). At the end of the tour, he ensured we reached the location where we could book a cab to the airport and even checked to make sure we departed safely. I highly recommend him for tours in Varanasi!

Great way to get to know Varanasi - We had a wonderful walking tour of Varanasi with Ravi. The walk went at a relaxed pace, while at the same time covering a lot of ground and opening our eyes to parts of the city we would not have seen on our own. Ravi shared tons of information with us regarding Hindu traditions and the culture of the city, treated us to some delicious street food and catered the tour stops to what we were most interested in. We are not big tour people generally, however Varanasi is an overwhelming place to explore, and having someone who is local to the city is key to really understanding everything that’s going on around you. We’re really glad we had this experience and wish we had done it on our first day in Varanasi, rather than our last - as it gave us a whole new perspective of the city, plus Ravi had lots of other tips to continue exploring the city on our own. He’s also an incredibly nice guy, speaks perfect English, and is the utmost professional. You can tell he is passionate about what he does. Highly recommend Ravi as a guide and resource for your trip to Varanasi!
