Explore Varanasi Overnight Tour By High Speed Vande Bharat Train From Delhi

Start & end in New Delhi 2 days Up to 10

About this trip

Varanasi is one of the world's oldest living cities, built along the Ganges, and this trip gets you there and back from Delhi in two days aboard the Vande Bharat high-speed train. It's a fast, focused introduction to a city that runs on ritual — ghats, temples, and a river that locals consider sacred.

You'll see the city at its most atmospheric: sunrise over the Ganges, the maze of old-town alleys, and the evening Ganga Aarti ceremony with its fire, chanting, and crowds along the riverbank. This is a private tour, so the pace and stops can flex around you and your group.

What you'll do

  • Travel to Varanasi from Delhi on the Vande Bharat high-speed train
  • Take a sunrise boat ride along the Ganges ghats
  • Watch the Ganga Aarti prayer ceremony on the riverbank
  • Walk the pedestrianised old-town alleys, or gullies
  • Visit temples and ghats central to Hindu pilgrimage tradition
Good to know
  • A short, fast-paced overnight trip rather than a deep dive into the city
  • Private tour, so timings and stops can be adjusted for your group
  • Early starts are involved for the sunrise river viewing
