Free walking tours in Varanasi

We meet Akash at the meeting point and all the walking, stories and places we visited were awesome and in a slow pace that allowed us to enjoy and feel Varanasi. 100% recommended!!

Excelente tour, explico todo de forma amable y entretenido, lo pasé muy bien y me sentí muy cómoda con el gurú conociendo la ciudad. 100% recomendado! gracias!

Great experience! Akash was very professional and informative - he really explained everything very well. Great experience overall! Highly recommend

The tour with Badal was quite amazing. It was fun and well structured, and he was all the time open to our doubts/thought making it super easy-going and friendly. I would highly recommend the tour since you will visit places that otherwise you probably won’t!

We had an amazing tour by Varanasi. It was great to get a deep dive into traditions, rituals and culture around Varanasi.

Akash is a nice guy who explains very well all the historical and spiritual things you have to know about Varanasi and India. He is very kind and welcoming. I Enjoy this tour a lot and highly recommend taking it.

Excelente combinación de profesionalidad y simpatía! Pasamos una gran tarde recorriendo Varanasi! Volvería a recorrer con Akash!

Best day ever! We had an amazing tour, very informative, amazing and safe street food and some great shopping recommendations. We would recommend to anyone visiting Varanasi!! Anant is a wonderful welcome man and a local expert. A truest lovely man, we had a wonderful day ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Very well organized, super satisfied about the tour! Recommended

Anant è stata una guida efficiente, preparata e molto disponibile. Ci ha fatto scoprire posti magici di Varanasi, compresi anche la scuola e l'ospedale per farci comprendere ancora meglio la vita indiana. Questo tour è super consigliato! Grazie, Anant. Namastè, Il gruppo italiano

Akash is the sassiest guide in all Varanasi, we enjoyed every minute with him.

A wonderful tour, full of information, well explained, and fun. The guide is very knowledgeable and speaks excellent English. I loved it. thank u Akash

I went alone, and at all times I felt very safe. The experience was wonderful; I felt very lucky with the treatment during the tour and everything I saw. I was recommended the Mother Ganges ceremony, and it was impressive: great location and good price. Although the tour is in English, the guide also speaks Spanish, which makes everything much easier to enjoy.

Muy agradable, nos enseñó sitios que no hubiéramos visitado por nuestra cuenta y nos contó cosas interesantes de la ciudad. Muy recomendable 😊

Tour was great. Guide was friendly and professional. He had lots of interesting information to share.

Anant nos hizo un maravilloso tour por Varanasi, explicándonos su historia, sus costumbres y sus tradiciones. Nos llevó a lugares sorprendentes que probablemente no hubiésemos conocido solos. Nos llevamos un recuerdo inolvidable.

Niwas è davvero una guida appassionata e coinvolgente durante il suo tour, peccato che molti posti erano irraggiungibili a causa della pioggia degli ultimi giorni, ma Niwas ce l'ha messa tutta per spiegarci i dettagli più piccoli di questa grande città. Grazie mille!

La visita a la zona de templos y gaths con Anant ha estado muy bien. Conoce muy bien todos los rincones de la cuidad y nos ha transmitido su pasión por la religión y la cultura hindú. Recomendamos esta visita.

Absolutely amazing experience! Doing the Free Walking Tour in Varanasi was one of the highlights of my trip. Having a local guide made all the difference — it’s really essential to understand even a little bit of the local culture, the roots of Hinduism, and the meaning behind what you see around the city. Without someone explaining, the walk through Varanasi can feel a bit empty. But with the guide’s insights, everything came to life — from the role of the cows in the streets, to the importance of the temples, and of course, the sacred connection to the Ganges River. The visit to the cremation surrondings was a very intense moment, emotionally strong, but I believe it’s a necessary experience to truly connect with the spirit of the place. It was done with respect and sensitivity. Highly recommend this tour.

El tour con Anant fue muy bien. Nos llevó a lugares de Varanasi a los que no hubiéramos podido llegar o entrar por nuestra cuenta (visitamos una escuela, una de las casas donde los hindús van a pasar el final de su vida, muchos pequeños templos y callejuelas y hasta el lugar de las cremaciones!). Entendimos mejor las bases del hinduismo y aprendimos mucho sobre Varanasi. Se adapta muy bien a las necesidades del grupo (que acostumbran a ser muy reducidos, especialmente en verano) y contesta todas las preguntas, además de tener un inglés claro y habilidades comunicativas. We definitely recommend it!

Akash created a very nice and interesting perspective of Agra. He showed me very nice and interesting locations and explained with good english everything. The tour was definitive worth it!

Super and fun loving guide we had on this tour and we really enjoyed the tour. Thanks Abhay!!

Such an amazing experience and Abhay was great friendly guide and helped me to understand about the city in depth, surely worth of taking this tour.

Overall it was nice tour!

Recomiendo hacer este tour apenas llegas a Varanasi, así podrás entender lo más importante y básico de esta ciudad y su gente . Además el guía te ayuda con recomendaciones para tu estadía 😊
