Varanasi Sunset Boat Evening Ganga Aarti and Walking Tour
It was an absolutely wonderful experience!
The tour guide was really kind and thoughtful! Because of the tropical cyclone today, the originally planned boat ride couldn’t take place. However, the guide kindly arranged for me to experience the evening Ganga Aarti at Assi Ghat from up close. It was absolutely incredible and such a cool experience! He also took me through many small local alleys that I would never have discovered on my own, and I got so many amazing photos along the way. If I had explored by myself, I definitely wouldn’t have found these places. I highly recommend this guide — he was truly attentive and put a lot of effort into making the experience special!
