One of the best experiences in Varanasi is the boat ride trip, which is included in many Varanasi travel packages. Boating on the Ganges in Varanasi allows you to see and witness life and culture at the Ghat in Varanasi, such as ritual bathing, praying to Mother Holly Ganges in Varanasi, chanting mantras, sounding the bell in temples in Varanasi, women performing pooja offerings at the Ghat, lighting lamps for deity blessings with holly Ganges and the Sun, in an unforgettable spiritual experience. All of these early activities at Varanasi's ghat are worth seeing!
Subah-e-Banaras, which means "morning life at the ghat in Varanasi," is well-known since life in Varanasi begins at the ghat. Our Ganges boat trip will take you to see the life and activities of the Ghat.
This tour begins at Assi Ghat and continues to Panch Ganga Ghat, where the spiritual journey of Benares begins. You will get off the boat and you will see the busiest cremation ground in Varanasi, and later on, we will walk to the Kashi Vishwanath Temple (the "golden temple") area, where you can see the divine temples of Hindus and Muslims next to each other.
