Free walking tours in Varanasi

Anant is a friendly guide who knows everything about the city. I really liked that he explained hinduism and the important things about Varanasi through the street art in the city. Anant is very enthusiastic about Varanasi which I liked. I would have liked a little more transparency about the specific itinerary of the tour. But overall, it was a inspiring experience!

The walk in Varanasi was a great start to my experience here. We explored many temples, hidden alleys and learned about the mysteries and magic of this city. Very interesting walk and good recommendations.

Ashak was a easy going guy, but I'm not sure if I recommended it, sometimes he was in a harry in other to relax, not sharing interesting info, just in the crematorium he looks more focus.

Akash was a brilliant guide. Explained everything very well, checking our understanding while ensuring it was engaging. Enjoyed having a chai with Akash after and someone who is very easy to chat too. Amazing tour and a must visit for anyone in Varanasi!

We had our tour with Niwas which was really entertaining and energetic. He made sure to provide us with a lot of information about varanasi and all the places that we visited. We totally recommend this tour :)

Akash was an amazing guide. We could schedule the start if the tour one hour later, which fit better to our schedule. The meezing wa spretty easy. Our guide remembered all of our names suoer quickly. He answered all questions super good and took us not only to big places but also small more hidden spots. The tour was super quick, it did not feel like 3 hours at all. We had a lot of fun, and Akash was very charming the whole time. Especially impressive was the stop at the cremation site.

Anant was absolutely brilliant and showed me many hidden gems of the Ghats. His knowledge of the history, community and life of the place shows his true passion and pride in being a local. His tour is pure heart backed by facts. I would highly recommend a walk with him to get a different perspective on the life and historical significance of Varanasi.

Anant’s tour was excellent! He is so knowledgeable about history and traditions of Varanasi so we learned a ton and had a very spiritual experience. Highly recommend!

Nice guru. He spoke good englisch and did a nice route and know so much about the city. It was a wonderfull experience. Thankyou!

The tour is great, nice way to see town.

I cannot recommend a walking tour with Anant enough! He went above and beyond to show us the city he is so passionate about, and even personalised the tour to fit our interests. The perfect introduction for anyone to Varanasi.

I had a great day today with Anant, the tour was well structured- covering all the aspects of the city. Hello answered all my questions and myths regarding Hinduism. Thank you so much Anant, your language fluency is commendable. I've been to Varanasi for once earlier but this time it was indeed more magical. I was alone in the tour, that became an advantage and I felt comfortable, also the interaction with musical instruments and some local shopping was great, later in the evening I enjoyed his food tour too; food tasting at its best. Totally worth it, I highly recommend his tour to anyone who wants to know and experience real Varanasi!

Anant was a great guide! We had a great time! it was loner than expected, and with some local traditional music lesson included. Anant have a lot of knowledge about the city and history. He is experienced. ¡Anant fue un guía fantástico! ¡Nos lo pasamos genial! Fue más largo de lo esperado e incluyó una clase de música tradicional local. Anant tiene un amplio conocimiento de la ciudad y su historia. Tiene mucha experiencia.

A fantastic tour, with a well-thought-out route and full of interesting information and local insight. Anant was keen to thoroughly answer any questions, and I saw several things I would have missed otherwise.

Manish nos llevó a lugares muy interesantes y dio explicaciones sobre los mismos. Fue un gran tour, gracias por compartir tu ciudad con nosotras :)

Muy grata experiencia, excelente información. Donat es excelente guía

Puntual, llegamos 10 minutos antes y ya estaba allí. Se preocupó en todo momento de que le entendiéramos, pues nuestro inglés no es perfecto. Tour muy interesante, con información y lugares que no habríamos encontrado por nuestra cuenta. Nos sobró la visita a la tienda de telas, donde nos insistieron para intentar que compráramos. Y la visita al músico tradicional muy interesante, pero luego se nos insinuó que dejáramos una propina, lo que nos puso de nuevo en una situación incómoda.

Interesante recorrido, pensé que duraría 3 horas pero no llegó a las 2 horas. Muy amable el guía. Fui el único participante de tour

Un tour estupendo y el guía genial. 10/10

Akash ran a great tour, it was a perfect first introduction to Varanasi. He took me to the burning ghats which was very harrowing, great to see and definitely wouldn’t have felt able to go alone. Very knowledgeable and spoke good English! He also helped me run through my itinerary for the rest of my stay and gave good food recommendations.

Akash was an extremely personable guide with great English (and Spanish skills). The tour involved more destinations and more information than I anticipated. I did this on my first day in Varanasi and it was a great introduction to the city. I really enjoyed it.

Excelente tour de comida por la cuidad de Varanasi. Anant muy bien guía con mucho conocimiento y carisma!

Anant was an expert on both Hinduism & the local area. The tour was well.paced. Ours was a very hot day & we could have stopped for more water breaks. That aside I would definitely recommend this tour.

Tour ameno e interesante.

Excelente tour , gracias a Anan por contarme historia de varanassi y de la comida local, la disfrute sin temor a enfermar.
