Goddess Parvaty asked Lord Shiva to describe the various important Shiv Lings in Kashi. Lord Shiva told her, once upon a time, in Anand Van (Kashi) Yam Raj installed a Ling and underwent severe penance in prayer of Lord Shiva. His prayers went on during extremely cold winters and torrid summers. The intensity of his prayers went on increasing, he stood on one leg and prayed for several years and finally stood on one toe for several days during his penance. At last Lord Shiva appeared before him and conferred the title of Dharma Raja on Yam Raj. (In some mantras like Sandhya Vandana, the mantra reads as Yamaya Dharma Rajaya etc. etc.) The Ling installed by Yam Raj was named by Lord Shiva as Dharmeshwar Ling. On seeing Lord Shiva in person, Yam Raj was dumb struck and could not ask what he wanted. He was overwhelmed with joy

Best tour in Varanasi
Had an absolutely wonderful time with Vicky. First we ventured on a rural village tour, meeting very lovely local people who Vicky introduced us to. We enjoyed so much that the next day we on the spiritual tour. There really is no better way to experience Varanasi and it's spiritual history than with Vicky. Cannot recommend highly enough, just book with him and experience it yourself! Thank you Vicky, you made our trip to India

Excellent Local Guide
I initially got a recommendation to tour with Vicky and this was a great choice. He was a fantastic guide. He is local to Varanasi and so knows the area and it's history exceptionally well. He was very thoughtful, and able to moderate his tours to meet individual needs. He has fantastic grasp of English. Overall I think he was a lovely man that I felt safe and comfortable with. Highly recommend Vicky and I wish him all the best for the future.

Great Experience With Vicky
I have been to Varnessia 3 times now. Every time I had a Vicky tour by foot throughout the city, he showed me new parts of the town and explained more to me about his culture. I can thoroughly recommend Vicky to any traveller who would like to see more and have a great experience.

Good guide and good guy
Very good guide for a Varanasi tour out of tourist places. He will guide you to hidden temples that only a person living there can know.

Why this scores 66
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Varanasi old City and Street Tour 3 Hour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Varanasi.
How much does Varanasi old City and Street Tour 3 Hour cost?
+
Prices start at $27 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Varanasi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Varanasi old City and Street Tour 3 Hour take?
+
Plan for about 3 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 Varanasi is not rushed.
Is Varanasi old City and Street Tour 3 Hour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Varanasi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Varanasi old City and Street Tour 3 Hour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Varanasi old City and Street Tour 3 Hour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Varanasi old City and Street Tour 3 Hour?
+
Around 2 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 Varanasi 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 Varanasi and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Varanasi old City and Street Tour 3 Hour 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 Varanasi 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 Varanasi?
+
On Outty we rank every Varanasi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Hidden Secrets of Varanasi: Vibrant Tradition (Guided Tour), The Ultimate 1 Day in Varanasi - How to Spend 13 Hours - Private Guided Tour, A Journey of A lifetime. 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 Varanasi?
+
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 Varanasi?
+
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.
What is included in Varanasi old City and Street Tour 3 Hour?
+
Included: Tea and coffee. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Varanasi old City and Street Tour 3 Hour?
+

What languages is Varanasi old City and Street Tour 3 Hour offered in?
+
