About Kashi

One of the oldest living cities in the world. Kashi is best met slowly: at sunrise on the ghats, at dusk with the Ganga aarti, and in between with someone who knows the lanes.

An indicative plan

Most journeys to Kashi follow this rhythm. Exact plans differ by departure.

  1. Day 1

    Evening on the Ganga

    • Ganga aarti at Dashashwamedh Ghat, viewed from a spot arranged in advance.
    • A quiet walk along the ghat with your host.
  2. Day 2

    Sunrise and the temples

    • Sunrise boat ride past the ghats, seated.
    • Kashi Vishwanath darshan. Phones are restricted in the inner zone, so we arrange storage first.
    • Annapurna and Vishalakshi temples as time allows.
  3. Day 3

    Old Kashi

    • Kal Bhairav Temple and a walk through the old lanes with a local storyteller.
    • Afternoon rest, then Sankat Mochan Hanuman Temple.
  4. Day 4

    Sarnath

    • Dhamek Stupa and the deer park, with an optional visit to the museum.
    • A slower afternoon at the ghats.

Good to know

  • Kashi’s lanes are narrow and busy. If someone in your group finds walking hard, tell us when you book so we can plan assistance.
  • Dress modestly, and carry a light shawl or stole.
  • Wear comfortable footwear that is easy to remove. Shoes are left outside temples.
  • Carry a photo ID and any regular medicines.
  • Some temples do not allow phones, cameras or bags inside. We tell you which ones before you go and arrange safe storage.
  • Rules, timings and queues change around festivals and during VIP visits. Your Journey Manager checks on the day and adjusts the plan.
