Before dawn rise I will picking you up from your hotel and then we will start our boat ride from Varanasi's main and busiest ghat: Dashashwamedh Ghat. From the boat you will enjoy a magical sunrise over the Ganges. You will feel overwhelmed by the beauty of the sunrise and the magic light that bathes the historical palaces and temples on the banks of the river as well. During the trip, you will also enjoy, for sure, witnessing local life and photographing the vibrant activity, full of colour and tradition, on the ghats: pilgrims and locals taking the sacred bath, praying, doing ceremony, doing laundry, shadus, babas… Also you can observe from the water the sacred rituals around death that take place in Manikarnika Ghat, the principal crematorium of the city. Life &death, tradition & local culture... A gift for senses. Are you in?

Manikarnika Ghat
After a short snap at your hotel and a good breakfast, I will pick you up again and we will continue exploring Varanasi. We begin the second part of the tour at Manikarnika: where death is celebrated.
Above the main burning ghat of Varanasi, one of the holiest cremation sites along the Ganges River, from the best place to observing and photographing, while songs of repentance and the smoke engulf the area and the corpses are cremated for the Eternal peace, I will explain to you in detail about the Hindu sacred rituals of death.
After that, we will head to the old town to discover the small and colourful alleys of the centre, historical palaces, sacred temples, traditional ashrams, bazaar and local markets, local culture, tradition and people. Let yourself go and enjoy this hike that will sometimes feel like a journey back in time!
