Brilliant Trip to Varanassi
My wife had been wanting to do this trip for years and we were not disappointed The arrangements were excellent and so was our guide and driver Very humbling watching families burning there deceased by the Ganges river and also witnessing newly married couples being blessed in the same river The number of pilgrims that come everyday are amazing Hotel was a bit of a let down as it was very tired and needed a revamp urgently Hopefully next year another trip through this company

Intriguing Varanasi
I decided I wanted to visit Varanasi and being female, left it to my husband to organise. He got in touch with this company and the magic happened. They were brilliant. We arrived in Delhi, were met and escorted to the railway, put on the train to Varanasi. Met by our driver, who spoke very good English and taken to the hotel. We then met our guide and our guide for two days. He was superb. Very knowledgeable, without being pushy. He had a brilliant sense of humour. We loved Varanasi and we feel we saw everything worth seeing. The tour was well organised and we added on a day tour of Delhi. Fantastic. Again a knowledgeable driver / guide, who after a lovely day got us to the airport safety for our return to Goa. This company pulled out all the stops to make it a memorable trip, with no hitches. We will be in India next year and will definitely be using this company for another interesting of the cuff tour. Thank you to all concerned.
Response from the operator: Dear Mrs.Eillen Harper Greetings from India We hope you are Doing great and Thanks for your Kind Review and glad to know that you Enjoy your trip with us. Hope to welcome you back soon, with kind regards Shawkat Wani

3-Day Delhi & Varanasi Tour by Express Train with Guide: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for New Delhi.
How much does 3-Day Delhi & Varanasi Tour by Express Train with Guide cost?
+
Prices start at $275 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in New Delhi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 3-Day Delhi & Varanasi Tour by Express Train with Guide take?
+
Plan for about 72 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in New Delhi is not rushed.
Is 3-Day Delhi & Varanasi Tour by Express Train with Guide worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in New Delhi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 3-Day Delhi & Varanasi Tour by Express Train with Guide?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is 3-Day Delhi & Varanasi Tour by Express Train with Guide suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 72-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 3-Day Delhi & Varanasi Tour by Express Train with Guide?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in New Delhi can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in New Delhi and add a light layer if any part of the 72-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 3-Day Delhi & Varanasi Tour by Express Train with Guide start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central New Delhi within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in New Delhi?
+
On Outty we rank every New Delhi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Taj Mahal & Agra Fort Private Day Trip From Delhi with 5* Lunch, 5 Nights 6 Days Private Golden Triangle Tour - Delhi Agra Jaipur, Old & New Delhi Private City Tour – Traveler’s Choice (Top Rated). The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit New Delhi?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in New Delhi?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
