Your holiday idea


Experience Varanasi with time to observe rather than rush. This two-night proposal combines the ghats and old-city surroundings with a Sarnath visit, keeping temple plans respectful and realistic. The route can be adapted for pilgrims, heritage travellers and families with different walking needs.

A suggested route


Varanasi. The day-by-day plan below is a starting point and can be adjusted to your dates and pace.

Plan before you travel


Ghats involve steps and the old city can be crowded. Temple entry, dress, queues and access follow the authorities' rules; no priority darshan is promised. Boat trips depend on river conditions and local permission and must be quoted separately.

Your travel dates and duration

This suggested itinerary is 3 days / 2 nights. Share your preferred dates or travel month, arrival/departure point and group size so the team can check a workable custom plan. Travel and transfer time is part of the outline. This is not a scheduled group departure, and no seat or room is held until the selected arrangements are confirmed in writing.

Review your personalised quote

This page is a suggested custom holiday. Ask for a written quote showing the selected travel dates, traveller names and ages, route, accommodation, room occupancy, transport, meals, sightseeing, taxes, total amount and booking conditions. An enquiry does not reserve rooms, tickets, vehicles or seats.

Accommodation, rooms and meals

The property name, room category, occupancy, meal plan and check-in/check-out arrangements are those stated in your final confirmation. Early check-in, late checkout, adjoining rooms and other special requests depend on availability and may involve a separately quoted charge. Destination artwork does not identify a booked hotel or room.

Transfers, sightseeing and optional experiences

Pickup/drop points, transfer type, vehicle arrangements, guide services, admission tickets and included meals must be listed in the written quote. Suggested visits and optional experiences are not reserved merely because they appear in the itinerary. Local opening hours, access, traffic and weather can affect the workable order of the day.

Payment and booking confirmation

Review the payment schedule, due dates, accepted payment method and availability conditions in your written quote before paying. Follow the verified booking instructions shared by TripSarathi and retain the confirmation and receipts. No online payment or automatic reservation is created by this enquiry form.

Changes, cancellation and refunds

Contact TripSarathi with your booking reference and the service you want to change or cancel, and request acknowledgement. Availability, revised prices, cancellation charges and refundable amounts depend on the specific supplier and service terms accepted for your booking. Ask for those conditions before payment. A request, supplier approval and a completed refund are separate stages; no standard percentage or refund deadline is promised on this page.

Documents, permits and participation needs

Check the travel-document, visa and permit requirements relevant to your nationality, destination and dates before booking. Tell the team about traveller ages, mobility needs and other requirements that affect the route. Optional water, snow, walking and adventure experiences require their own availability, operating and suitability checks.
