Arriving in Varanasi without the hassle.
The usual first experience of this city is negotiating a fare with a stranger at the airport gate, often late and usually tired. We would rather you skipped that part.
Send us your flight or train number
One of our own drivers waits for you at the airport or at Varanasi Cantt station. You are not looking for a taxi at midnight, and the fare is agreed before you land.
Someone on the desk speaks English
Reception is staffed around the clock. If you need a doctor, a chemist, a train ticket changed or a lane explained, ask at any hour.
Our own cars and licensed guides
Sightseeing runs on our vehicles and guides we know, not on whoever is parked outside. We quote you before you commit, and we come back for you.
Car rental with a driver in Varanasi.
Varanasi is not a city you want to learn by trial and error. We keep our own vehicles and drivers so guests are not negotiating on the street at six in the morning.
Airport runs, temple circuits, a half day to Sarnath or a full day further out. Ask at the desk and we will quote you before you commit.
Book direct with the hotel.
Call the desk and speak to the family, or send your dates and we reply the same day. No booking fee, and we hold the room.
