Varanasi

I am Hindu born in Varanasi. My passion for this city doesn’t fit in me and I have the mission to spread to people what I love in my city. I listed just a few places of a big amount I would like to show.

Highlights
  • Dasaswamedh Ghat - One of the best places to see the daily ceremony. This happens at night and the lights of fire mix with colors in a very beautiful way. During the day, we can walk to crematory, where I will tell you about how Hindus understand the death.
  • Munshi Ghat - A beautiful place to take pictures of ancient buildings and the Ganga river.
  • Banaras Hindu University - Using a Tuk Tuk, we can watch the beautiful university and stop in Shiva Temple, that is a very big temple. I will tell all you need to know to understand the Hindu symbols and statues.

Excellent Tour for a woman alone in India - I really enjoy my time in Varanasi. I was travelling alone, and as a woman, is very important to feel safe and get a good tour guide. Kashi was very kind and respectful and he showed me amazing places. I learned a lot with him and got a real experience of the indian culture. Contact him, you'll not regret it!

He also cover historical place and temple. Well speak English highly recommended. 1st went to ganga bath 2nd visit kashi vishwanath temple [ if foreigners will be easy to entre to temple just visit nearby government office beside temple pay 600 indian rupees and the priest inside temple will guide. The priest will bring you inside temple and you save more than 3 to 4 hours time waiting in queue.] 3rd we went to how they do cremation at kashi and he show me how they start fire. It's call shiva fire from there will take the fire and start to cremation. After that he bring some shop that you can purchase . Went to Ram Nagar Fort museum that's was king kashi naresh Palace.

Amazing experience with Travel with Anoop - The city which is known for its culture, tradition, spiritual and intellectual beliefs in God. Yes, Varanasi which is the oldest living city in the world created by Lord Shiva himself."This place has serenity amid chaos, Celebration amid grief and life amid death. "If you visit this place, keep you arms open, the city will embraces you with all it has, mystique, holiness and history. Traveling with Anup was an amazing experience.He treats his guests Fairly, friendly,and perfectly. Thank you Anup for your time and that great experience. Thank you so much for these random clicks too.

Perfect introduction into Varanasi - Kashi gave us a wonderful tour - much longer than asked for and much more interesting and diverse than expected. He tried to figure out what we were interested in and chose the sights accordingly. He is a very sensitive guide who gives you time to watch and feel this special place. He answers every question with pleasure and knowledge.

The best guide to walk through a powerful city - Kashi is one of those guides that will not only show you what you have read in tourists guides, but also the unknown parts of Varanasi, those places that only the people who were born and live there know. He will tell you about religion, about holly places, about rituals and gods. He will also help you find the best places to feel the city's rhythm, to travel through its corners, and to feel as if you were part of that powerful society. Kashi makes you feel comfortable, and helps your expectations regarding Varanasi be fulfilled. Thank you Kashi for your kindness and your knowledge!

Bad - From temple tour to walking temple ghat tour. One person does not match picture. Not good.. I could have done this on my own. In fact I would have seen temples.
