“It is the headquarters of the Brahmin faith…But it is not an overstock, for they have all India as prey. All India flocks thither on pilgrimage, and pours its savings into the pockets of the priests in a generous stream, which never fails.” – MARK TWAIN
Overview
Banaras Tour Package: Explore the Spiritual Heart of India
Banaras, also known as Varanasi or Kashi, is a timeless city that holds profound spiritual and cultural significance. As one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world, it is revered as the spiritual capital of India. Mark Twain famously described Banaras as “older than history, older than tradition, and older even than legend.” Nestled along the banks of the holy River Ganges, the city is a haven for pilgrims and travelers seeking blessings, enlightenment, and a glimpse into India’s ancient heritage.
Our Banaras Tour Package offers an immersive experience of this sacred city, covering its iconic temples, bustling ghats, and serene riverfronts. At the heart of the tour is the Kashi Vishwanath Temple, one of the twelve Jyotirlingas, which draws devotees from across the globe to seek the blessings of Lord Shiva. The Ganga Maha Aarti at Dashashwamedh Ghat is another highlight, where the synchronized rituals, chanting of mantras, and glowing diyas create an atmosphere of divine energy. No visit to Banaras is complete without a boat ride on the River Ganges, especially at sunrise, when the city awakens with prayers and hymns. This serene experience offers stunning views of the ghats and temples that line the riverbanks.
The package also includes an excursion to Sarnath, a short drive from Banaras, where Lord Buddha delivered his first sermon. This historic site is home to the Dhamek Stupa, Ashokan Pillar, and a museum showcasing ancient Buddhist artifacts. Additionally, the tour covers some of Banaras’s most revered temples, such as the Annapurna Temple, dedicated to the Goddess of nourishment, and the Kashi Visalakshi Temple, one of the 51 Shakti Peethas. Exploring the city’s numerous ghats is another enriching experience, each ghat carrying its own religious and historical significance. Dashashwamedh Ghat stands out for its grandeur, Assi Ghat for its tranquil ambiance, and Manikarnika Ghat for its role in Hindu cremation rituals.
Our suggested itinerary for the 1 Night/2 Days Banaras Tour Package begins with a visit to Kashi Vishwanath Temple and concludes the day with the mesmerizing Ganga Aarti. The second day starts with a peaceful boat ride at sunrise, followed by temple visits and a half-day trip to Sarnath to explore its Buddhist heritage. This itinerary is designed to ensure you experience the spiritual and cultural essence of Banaras in a short yet fulfilling timeframe.
