    My private tour with Monu in Varanasi was truly exceptional. Not only did he possess extensive knowledge of the city's rich history and cultural heritage, but he also expertly curated an itinerary that allowed me to experience the most spectacular sights and sounds in just one day. His passion and enthusiasm for the city were truly contagious and made the tour even more enjoyable. Monu went above and beyond to ensure my comfort and safety, and his valuable insights and recommendations made my experience in Varanasi truly unforgettable. The highlight of the trip was his kind invitation to dinner with his lovely family. His wife is an exceptional cook and his mother has a heart of gold, making the evening one of the most memorable experiences of my life. I cannot recommend Monu highly enough to anyone looking for a personalized and unforgettable tour of Varanasi, especially if you are a solo female traveler with Monu you will feel safe and see the most.

    Varanasi/Benaras/Kashi... We may call it by different names,but to understand the essence of Varanasi one has to mingle with the locals. It is considered one of the oldest cities of the world. We stayed in hotel Sri Balaji,near Kaal Bhairav Temple, we stayed there for three nights and each day we toured the city by walking the old bylanes and it was a wonderful experience ,it was like time travel. The main attractions of Varanasi are Renovated Kashi Vishwanath temple, kaal bhairav ,Mata aanapurna temple, Vishalaxmi temple(one of the 51 peetas of sati) 84 Ghats , Sankatmochan ,Sarnath,and many renowned eateries (famous chaats).Many people also visit Vindhyachal to visit vidheshwari mata(Around 70KMS from Varanasi). Tourists also go to Gaya /Bodh Gaya which is around 5 Hours drive from Varanasi.. The best mode of transport in Varanasi is by foot or by TOTo (e-rickshaw) and cycle rickshaw as most of the roads are narrow and are full of traffic. My suggestion to any traveller who is coming by his own vehicle should park his vehicle in the hotel and travel by the local mode of transport.

    Monu guided us through a walking tour of Varanasi and it was byfar the best way to get to know the city! He did a great job of giving us a taste of the less-traversed parts of the city and explaining the significance of the sights we saw. Highly recommend!
