Suggested itinerary
Day 1 — Arrival & Ganga Aarti
Meet your driver at the airport or station and transfer to your hotel for check-in. Depending on your arrival time, take a gentle orientation walk along the ghats and nearby old-city lanes. In the evening, watch Ganga Aarti from a suitable riverfront viewing spot, then return to your hotel.
Day 2 — Temples & Sarnath
Start early with a boat ride past Varanasi’s ghats, subject to river and weather conditions. After breakfast, visit Kashi Vishwanath and other selected temples, allowing time for security checks and darshan queues. Travel to Sarnath in the afternoon to see the Dhamek Stupa area and museum if open, before returning to Varanasi.
Day 3 — Departure
Enjoy breakfast and check out at a pace that fits your onward journey. If your departure is later, use the morning for a short market visit, a final ghat walk or a temple you missed. Your private driver then takes you to the airport or railway station with time allowed for traffic.
