Varanasi Day Tour with Same Day Flights from Mumbai

Overview

Day by day itinerary

1. 1Evening Boat ride Ganges⌄

   Starting your day with a sunrise boat trip along the River Ganges is by far the best way to start your trip to Varanasi and this Varanasi itinerary. You may see parts of the Morning Aarti ceremonies depending on where on the river you start, and you should definitely make sure you go up to Manikarnika Ghat aka the Burning Ghat. In the morning, just after sunrise, there will not be any bodies burning yet, instead the men will be getting the area ready for the day and sorting the logs. It’s incredible to see the boats full of logs in front of the ghat which will be used to cover dead bodies later that day.

   Kashi Vishwanath Temple is right in the middle of the small streets itsan ancient lord Shiva Temple.

   Meals: Breakfast

   Overnight: Overnight at 5 Star hotel

2. 2Morning Boat ride at Ganges⌄

   Come evening time on this Varanasi itinerary for things to do in Varanasi, head to Dasawamedh Ghat for the Evening Aarti, this happens just after sunset when it’s dark but to get a good seat I’d recommend getting there early. You can’t miss it as there are huge lit up umbrellas above where the priests will do their ceremony
