Going on this tour was one of the best highlights of my trip to India. Coordination and communication with the tour company owner, Indrajeet, made everything happen very smoothly - he was very nice, professional, accommodating, and knowledgable. On the first night Indrajeet himself took us to the Ganges where we experienced Varanasi's night-life, the Ganges on a night boat ride, and a surreal Aarti on the Ganges. The next day, another tour guide, Sapan, took us back to the Ganges early in the morning to complete the experience (which was quite different from the visit at night), and later took us to Sarnath. He too was very professional and nice. Overall, an amazing experience - I would definitely recommend!Great tour, superb guide an fanatastic communication befor the start of the tour. Absolute recommendation! Thanks guys!
