Four-night Varanasi trip pairing the evening Ganga Aarti and Kashi temples with two nights in Ayodhya.
About This Trip
Uttar Pradesh is home to some of India's most profound sacred geography — the ghats of Varanasi where morning prayers meet the Ganga, the Mughal grandeur of Agra, and the celestial significance of Prayagraj. This 4-night, 5-day itinerary covers Varanasi, Ayodhya with 3 Star properties accommodation throughout. Daily breakfast is included at every hotel, so every morning starts well regardless of where you are. Transfers between cities and to all sightseeing sites are arranged from the moment you arrive to the moment you depart.
What You Will See
The sightseeing programme covers Ganga Arti, Vishvanath Temple, Sankat Mochan Temple, Manas Mandir, Benares Hindu University, Sarnath, and more along the way. Each site is visited with an expert local guide who knows the stories behind the stones and the best times to visit before the midday heat sets in.
Accommodation
Your hotels are 3 Star properties selected for location and quality. In a heritage city, a well-chosen 3-star property often means a haveli conversion or a business hotel within walking distance of the main sites. In a resort destination, the same category delivers a pool, structured meals, and a helpful front desk that genuinely knows the area. You sleep well; you wake up ready.
Meals
Daily breakfast is included at every hotel. On days when additional meals are on your own, your guide will point you toward the right local restaurants — the ones that have been feeding travellers for decades rather than just opening last season. Uttar Pradesh's food culture is one of its underrated gifts: Varanasi's malaiyo and kachori sabzi, Agra's petha, and Prayagraj's chaat.
Book Your Dates
Departures run across multiple dates with flexible pricing. Confirm your travel dates early — Uttar Pradesh packages in this range fill up quickly around festival seasons and school holidays.
