Tours & Activities in Varanasi
Namaste! 🙏
I am Badal. My family has lived for many generations in Varanasi allowing me to know every hidden corner of this beautiful and ancient city, along with fascinating stories about our traditions, history, religion, and ordinary people like myself.
Varanasi represents the essence of India. Here you will find India's life and drama. But here you will also discover that mysterious and magical "energy" that has captivated many foreigners over the centuries.
Varanasi has a million secrets. A visitor alone can never hope to uncover more than a fraction. Still, with my help, you will be able to discover the essence of this captivating city and its thrilling history.
Our tour will start at the meeting point, from where we will embark on a 3 hours journey to discover the most important historical and religious sites. We will visit the Ghats, crematorium, temples, narrow streets, markets and popular street food stalls, but also less touristic spots that are key to understanding the reality of modern Varanasi.
During our tour, I will be sharing with you historical information and other important facts but also telling you interesting stories about our daily life, our gastronomy and our customs.
I will be delighted to take you on this journey. Let me be your key to unlocking the hidden secrets of the ancient and spiritual city of Varanasi.
Namaste 🙏
