A dream trip - Excellent excursion. It was the highlight of my stay in India. From tea plantations to natural parks to end up with a night and an incredible ride in a house boat. It's a dream! To note the professionalism and all the attentions of Jaswin, the accompanying guide.

Fabulous holiday booked through Varanasi Excursion - We had a fantastic experience booking our family trip through Varanasi Excursion with Aamir. From the very beginning he was incredibly helpful and always available to answer questions and guide us while we planned our annual family holiday. His advice and expertise made the whole process much easier. All of the hotels and activities were exactly as described and in many cases exceeded our expectations. During the trip we did have an issue at one of the hotels, but Aamir and his team dealt with it quickly and provided great support to resolve it. Our driver also deserves a mention — he was friendly, polite and drove very carefully, which we really appreciated while travelling in India. Aamir was very patient with us during the planning stage and made sure everything ran smoothly from start to finish. We’d happily recommend him to anyone planning a trip.

Excellent 5 day Kerala tour with private driver - Wonderful service from the Varanasi excursion tour company. We had an excellent English speaking driver who was very helpful. The hotels and excursions were all well chosen enjoyable. We will use this company again if we have the chance to return to India.

Amazing experience - I would like to definitely recommend this tourist organisation as I had a great experience in kashi with the trip guide Bablu. He was polite, knowledgeable and made sure that all the places were covered in the given time frame. Information about all places was well explained by him. All in all it was an awesome trip with varanasi excursion and it is recommended for people who want to enjoy the kashi trip to the fullest. Thank you.

Thank you kasif!!!! - My self and my friend spent 2 days in Vanarasi with the amazing guidance of Kasif. This guy really know his city,history, culture and how to create an amazing expereince for his guests. He speaks fluent English and Spanish and is very professional. We have had 5 guides this trip and kasif was our favourite by far because he really looked out for his guest and gave us no pressure to buy items like other tour guides did. Parvez also kept us safe throughout the trip and was an excellent on time driver. Thank you kasif & parvez
