Day 01:- After breakfast day free at leisure and then depart for Varanasi by overnight train.

“Varanasi: Chaotic, Colorful, Charismatic and Claustrophobic- Varanasi’s ancient alleyways and the bathing ghats leading to the holy River Ganges are an essential part of India. This is India’s Hindu spiritual heartland, a place of pilgrimage, daily devotion and death. Also known s Kashi and Benares, the city of Shiva may be an auspicious place to die, but its bursting with life.”


Day 02:- Arrive Varanasi. Pickup from the station and transfer to the reserved accommodation. Evening visit the Ghats of Ganga for a mesmerizing Aarti (Prayer) Every evening at dusk, thousands of devotees and tourists gather on the steps of Dasaswamedha Ghat for the Ganga Aarti (Fire worship) ceremony. As the darkness descends, it’s a highly charged spiritual extravaganza where oil lamps are lit, bells clang, incense burns and bhajans (devotional prayers) are chanted. Many devotees light a small basket of flowers and set it adrift on the ganges. Overnight in Hotel.

Day 03:- Dawn boat ride on Ganges – Of all the experiences in Varanasi, there is nothing quite as humbling as an early morning boat ride on the Ganges. Set your alarm for a pre dawn start. The driver takes you to the Dasaswamedha Ghat or Assi Ghat for the ride. Sitting in your rickety wooden rowing boat, there’s an eerie sense of peace on the river until the sunrise bathes the ghats in gold and reveals the moving theater of spiritual devotion. All along the ghats, crowds of people are bathing, performing puja ceremony, praying to the Sun god and washing away the sins of Life. During the day city tour like Vishwanath temple, Banaras hindu University, Archaeological museum etc. & the Sarnath Temple tour which is 10 kms north east and is a thriving center for Buddhists. Overnight in Hotel.
