Day-by-day itinerary
Day 1 • Arrival, temples and evening aarti
Meet your driver at the airport or railway station and check in. The listing names Kashi Vishwanath, Annapurna and Sankat Mochan among the temple stops. If you arrive late, agree which visits to keep before heading to the Ganga Aarti.
Day 2 • Sunrise on the Ganges and Sarnath
See the riverfront by boat, then return for breakfast. Continue to Sarnath for the Dhamek and Chaukhandi stupas, Buddhist temples and the archaeological museum when open. Return to your Varanasi hotel.
Day 3 • Departure
Have breakfast, check out and transfer to the airport or railway station. Confirm which station you are using and where the driver can collect you, especially if your hotel is down a narrow lane.
What to confirm before you book
The booking page lists two hotel nights with breakfast, a morning boat ride, a guide and an air-conditioned vehicle. Confirm the hotel, admission fees, walking and stairs, and whether any evening viewing by boat is part of your selected option.
