After a 10 day tour in India, my... - <p>After a 10 day tour in India, my friend and I added on this side trip to Varanasi which was FANTASTIC. Prior to leaving Australia, the communication with the tour operator was prompt and professional using Viber and What's App and when we missed our connecting flight to begin the tour, again the tour operator reorganised for us with no fuss. Our private guide was the best - informative, organised and friendly and he arranged seats for us on a verandah overlooking the Ganges to view the evening aarti festivities. Watching the morning rituals at the Ganges was amazing too. This tour was a definite highlight of our entire Indian trip. Varanasi is a MUST VISIT and this tour was wonderful.</p>
