A great experience in Varanassi
I took 3 different tours in Varanasi: The essential Varanasi in the old part of the city, The Ganges tour with a boat ride, and a Music performance in a gat.All of the tours were exceptional: Guides with great knowledge, well planned experiences, flexible times, and great memories all around.For me the price was affordable and reasonable, I highly recommend both: the guided tours and also their Phone app with a lot of information and self-guided tours.

Music performances (I attended multiple sessions with different artists- solo and jugalbandi). Varanasi has a wealth of music. Roobaroo found the musicians who are willing to share aspects of music with the listener so that they can get introduced to Classical music with a better understanding.. One thing I have learnt is to sit till the end, that’s when the best comes up.
