Varanasi 2026 Calendar of Events

The spiritual energy of Varanasi can be felt everywhere. The temples, rituals, and riverfront create a deeply meaningful experience. The evening Aarti was beautiful and left a lasting impression.

One of the best parts of visiting Varanasi was spending time at the ghats. Watching the river, observing daily life, and experiencing the evening Aarti made the trip truly memorable. The city has a unique atmosphere that is hard to find anywhere else.

Very informative walk. We were taken into areas which were quiet for India! Where we could hear the guide talk, while being shown parts of varanesi that you wouldn't necessarily find yourself.

Manish saved our stay in Varanasi!!…We arrived without knowing the streets were going to be at their absolute craziest busy because of many thousands of pilgrims arriving for the Kumbh Mela…we were completely overwhelmed, but Manish met us at our hotel in the afternoon and very patiently guided us through the crowds explaining what was happening and why along the way. Varanasi is like nowhere on earth and thank you Manish for allowing us to leave it with some understanding and fond memories.

Fantastic tour that went to the parts other tours cannot reach. Went to places we would never have known about and might have been quite daunting without a guide.The trip to the funery ghat was humbling and really showed the spirituality of Hinduism.

Had the best tour ever with Manish! He's so friendly, it felt like going on a tour with a friend instead of a tourguide! He made a lot of effort to give me a very awesome experience! Thank you so much, Manish! Highly recommend it to go on a tour with him!
