Varanasi Guide: Planning Your Trip

This Ancient Holy City is not for the Faint of Heart!

kurkul/Getty Images

Varanasi is another sacred city in India with a very old history. It could possibly be the world's oldest inhabited city. Known as the city of Lord Shiva, the god of creation and destruction, it's believed that anyone who dies in Varanasi will be liberated from the cycle of reincarnation. Even a wash in the Ganges River is said to cleanse away all sins.

Varanasi was originally called Kashi during Vedic times. It was officially named Varanasi in 1956, although it was known as Benaras before that (said to be a variant of Varanasi). The name is derived from the meeting of the Varuna and Assi rivers.

The fascinating thing about this mystical city is that its rituals are revealed openly to along the many riverside ghats , which are used for everything from bathing to burning the bodies of the dead. Yoga, blessings, massages, shaves, and games of cricket are among the other activities you'll find performed by the river's edge.

Planning Your Trip

• Best Time to Visit: October to March are the best months to visit Varanasi. This is when the weather is at its coolest. Winters are refreshing and pleasant, albeit chilly at night. The temperature gets uncomfortably hot from April onward, easily reaching 35 degrees Celsius (104 degrees Fahrenheit). This is followed by monsoon rain from July to September.
• Language: Hindi and English.
• Currency: Indian rupee.
• Time Zone: UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) +5.5 hours, also known as Indian Standard Time. India does not have daylight saving time.
• Getting Around: Streets are very narrow in the old part of the city along the ghats , so walking is the only option in many places. It's possible to hire a bicycle at Assi Ghat. Further out, auto rickshaws and Ola cabs (the Indian version of Uber. Uber is yet to start operating in Varanasi) are convenient ways of getting around. There are prepaid booths for auto rickshaws and taxis directly outside Varanasi Junction railway station.
• Travel Tips: If you're not familiar with Varanasi and think you might be overwhelmed, or you want to gain deeper insight into the city, taking a tour is highly recommended. Keep in mind that taxis and auto rickshaws can't reach the Dashashwamedh Ghat area between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m. because of the crowds. You'll be dropped at Godaulia Crossing, where auto rickshaws line up.

Getting There

Varanasi is in Uttar Pradesh, about 300 kilometers (186 miles) southeast of capital Lucknow. The city has an airport and is connected by direct flight from major cities in India including Delhi, Kolkata, Mumbai, Lucknow, and Khajuraho.

Many people choose to travel to Varanasi by train. It takes a minimum of eight hours from Kolkata, 10 to 12 hours from Delhi, and around 30 hours from Mumbai. Most trains run overnight. The main railway station in Varanasi is called Varanasi Junction or Varanasi Cantt (the code is BSB). However, there are two other railway stations in the vicinity of the city -- Manduadih (MUV) and Deen Dayal Upadhyaya/Mughal Sarai Junction (MGS). This is important to note if all trains to Varanasi Junction are booked up. Manduadih is within the city, while Deen Dayal Upadhyaya/Mughal Sarai Junction is about 20 kilometers away. Mughal Sarai is a large station that receives a lot of trains, so you may be able to get one with availability. It was officially renamed Pandit Deen Deen Dayal Upadhyaya in 2018.

Bus services to Varanasi tend to be very slow and uncomfortable, and are generally avoidable unless you're on a super strict budget.

Things to Do

People visit Varanasi for a brush with the divine. One of the best things to do is to simply soak up the atmosphere and observe what's going on. The most interesting part of the city is its ghats (steps leading down to the river). Take a walk beside the river and watch life flow by.

A quintessential Varanasi experiences is a boat trip along the river at sunrise or dusk. It's worth going twice, at both times, because the atmosphere is different and you'll see different things. If you don't fancy hiring a simple row boat, the new luxury Alaknanda cruise operates twice a day (morning and evening) between in the south Assi Ghat and Raj Ghat in the north. The cost is 750 rupees per person.

The spectacular Ganga Aarti (prayer ceremony) takes place every evening at Dasaswamedh Ghat. You can either be part of the audience or watch it from the river. There's also an early morning sunrise Ganga Aarti at Assi Ghat. It's not as formal and provides a less touristy experience.

A look at the cremation ghats, where dead bodies are openly burned on funeral pyres, is eye-opening. It's best that you don't try and go there yourself, due to the prevalence of scams and touts (see below). Instead, take this Learning and Burning walking tour offered by Heritage Walk Varanasi or Death and Rebirth in Banaras walking tour offered by Varanasi Walks.

The magnificent Vishwanath Temple, built in 1776, is an important Hindu holy place of worship in Varanasi.

Varanasi is an excellent place to shop for silk (including saris ). However, be sure to check the quality as many items are actually made of fake silk or silk blend. Musical instruments are also a good buy in Varanasi.

Varanasi is well-known for classical dance and music, and yoga as well.

Varanasi Tours

Want to see immerse yourself in Varanasi or see it without the hassle? Experience Varanasi , Varanasi Magic , and Varanasi Walks conduct informative experiential and offbeat tours around the city.

Manjeet is an outstanding personal guide who provides customized heritage walks of Varanasi.

GoStops Hostel offers inexpensive walking tours and activities in Varanasi.

Uttar Pradesh Tourism's early morning heritage walk of Varanasi covers the ghats and famous temples.

If you take a walking tour, you'll be able to explore the bazaars and unusual attractions, such as the flower market and Ayurvedic herb market. You can also visit artisans, a community of boatmen, and Juna Akhara where an unusual sect of naked sadhus live.

Festivals and Events

The biggest festival of the year in Varanasi is Dev Deepavali (or Dev Diwali). Not to be confused with Diwali, this festival happens 15 days later, on Kartik Purnima (in October or November). The gods are believed to come to earth to bathe in the Ganges River on this day, and the ghats are decorated with rows and rows of lamps. Their glow creates an evocative spectacle. A five-day Ganga Mahotsav festival is also held in Varanasi at the same time. The focus is on live classical music and dance.

The world's oldest Ramlila performance, which narrates the life story of Lord Ram, takes place at Ramnagar near Varanasi for a month in the lead-up to Dussehra.

Other important occasions in Varanasi include Maha Shivratri and Buddha Purnima (Buddha's birthday). The five-day Dhrupad Mela music festival happens at Tulsi Ghat, usually in March after Maha Shivratri. It's organized by the Sankat Mochan Foundation.

Maha Shivratri is also an extraordinary time to visit Varanasi to see the many sects of sadhus, who come to celebrate the great festival of Lord Shiva in the city.

It's worth setting aside a day to take a side trip to Sarnath , about 30 minutes away. This is where the Buddha gave his first discourse. In contrast to the craziness of Varanasi, it's a peaceful place where you can wander around the grassy gardens and ruins of Buddhist stupas .

If you're interested in handicrafts, you may like to visit the weaver villages around Varanasi. These include Sarai Mohana (supported by the Taj Hotel Group), Kotwa and Ayodhyapur. Tours are conducted by Holy Voyages and Walks of Varanasi.

What to Eat and Drink

Those who want a break from Indian food will find it at Assi Ghat. Pizzeria Vaatika Cafe and Aum Cafe are very popular. The Open Hand Cafe and Shop serves great coffee and yummy light meals and retails their quality ethically-made products.

Head to the Dosa Cafe or Niyati Cafe, in the lane behind Man Mandir Ghat, for simple yet tasty Indian fare.

Blue Lassi is famous for its traditional fruit-flavored lassi yoghurt drinks (some say they're the best in India). This hole-in-the-wall shop has been in business since 1925 enroute to Manikarnika Ghat.

It's wise to avoid trying the street food in Varanasi, due to hit-and-miss hygiene.

As Varanasi is a holy city, alcohol isn't permitted around the ghats and temples. Many rooftop restaurants do discreetly serve beer to tourists though. You'll only find bars in mid-range and luxury hotels away from the ghats.

Where to Stay

Ideally, stay in a hotel that faces the Ganges River so you can watch all the goings-on along the ghats . However, do be aware that most of these hotels are only accessible on foot. Be sure to factor this in if you have a lot of luggage. Here's the pick of hotels in Varanasi for all budgets.

Culture and Customs

Varanasi is a challenging destination for inexperienced travelers. There are many scams to watch out for. The most common one involves touts who will take you to see Manikarnika Ghat (the main cremation ghat) and ask you to donate wood for the funeral pyre -- you'll be paying at least 10 times more than what the wood's worth. If you offer a small amount, it will be declined. Either say you don't have any money or don't feel comfortable giving so much.

Although the government has noticeably cleaned up Varanasi in recent years, it's still very polluted and dirty. Most tourists find it to be an intense city that confronting and off-putting, yet intriguing. This is a place that will really overwhelm your senses, and not always in a good way. So, do be ready for it! It's not wise to take a dip in the Ganges River due to the pollution. If you go on a boat ride, avoid getting wet.

When taking photos, do be discrete and considerate of people who are performing rituals. Especially avoid photographing the cremation ghats.

Distance between Lucknow and Varanasi

Driving non-stop from lucknow to varanasi.

How far is Varanasi from Lucknow? Here's the quick answer if you are able to make this entire trip by car without stopping.

Nonstop drive: 191 miles or 307 km

Driving time: 6 hours, 32 minutes

Realistically, you'll probably want to add a buffer for rest stops, gas, or food along the way. To get a better idea of how long this trip would really be, scroll down to calculate how many hours it would take if you drive with stops .

Flying non-stop from Lucknow to Varanasi

Now let's assume you have a private jet and you can fly in the fastest possible straight line between Lucknow, India and Varanasi, India. Because of the curvature of the Earth, the shortest distance is actually the "great circle" distance, or "as the crow flies" which is calculated using an iterative Vincenty formula.

Flight distance: 166 miles or 267 km

Flight time: 50 minutes

The straight line flight distance is 25 miles less than driving on roads, which means the driving distance is roughly 1.2x of the flight distance.

Your plane flies much faster than a car, so the flight time is about 1/8th of the time it would take to drive.

This is a relatively short flight in a private plane, but you might be planning to book a commercial flight. In that case, your travel time would really need to include how many minutes to get to your local airport, wait for security, board and taxi on the runway, land at the other airport, and get to your destination. Scroll down to see a more realistic calculation that takes into account all these factors to get a more accurate estimate of your actual flight time .

Lucknow to Varanasi road trip

Let's say you're actually planning a road trip to Varanasi, and you want to stop along the way to rest. If it's a real road trip, you might want to check out interesting stops along the way, eat at great restaurants, and maybe even find a hotel to stay overnight. That's what Trippy is perfect for, helping you figure out travel plans in detail.

Based on the length of this trip, we think you could spread out this fun road trip over more than one day.

Road trip: 2 days of driving

With the full itinerary planned out, we can estimate your total travel time for this trip.

Travel time: 6.5 hours on the road with 1 overnight

Start in Lucknow .

Drive for about 2.5 hours , then stop in Jaunpur and stay overnight. The next day, drive for about 3 hours , then stop in Sarnath and stay for about 1 hour. Finally, drive for about 45 minutes and arrive in Varanasi .

Lucknow to Varanasi airports and flights

In the quick calculation above, we assumed you had a private plane and just wanted to know the time in the air from city to city. But for most of us, we're going to be flying on a commercial airline (whether it's first class or coach). So that means we really need to account for all the extra travel time getting to the airport, waiting for our flight, and making it to the destination.

To give you a better estimate of real-life travel, we've put together a flight itinerary with actual airports. Eventually you'll be able to customize this plan, choosing your own airports and flights. But for now, here's an example we've selected to give you an idea of how traveling might work between airports.

Departure airport: Chaudhary Charan Singh Airport (LKO)

Arrival airport: Lal Bahadur Shastri Airport (VNS)

With the airports selected, we can estimate the travel time to and from the airport, based on how far the airport is from downtown.

Getting to the airport: 19 minutes

Getting to your destination: 35 minutes

Now finally, let's look at an actual flight from LKO connecting through JAI and arriving at VNS flying on IndiGo Air. We can figure out how long it would take to fly including take-off and landing, time to taxi on the runways, and an average layover time of about 2 hours.

Initial flight time: 1 hour, 8 minutes

Connecting airport: Jaipur International Airport (JAI)

Connection flight time: 1 hour, 24 minutes

So now we can finally get an idea of the total travel time from Lucknow to Varanasi including time spent getting to and from the airports, roughly 2 hours at the departure airport for TSA security lines and waiting at the gate, plus the connecting flight with a 2-hour layover.

Could you please advise to travel option from Lucknow to Varanasi ?

Train,Bus,Cab.

Thank you very much. Is there any night train ?

As I see it would take 4:30 hrs .

Check here https://m.etrain.info/in-TBS?TRAIN_BETWEEN=LJN-BSB

I suggest to avail train. There are various trains at different times. But you require prior reservations of seat/berth.

2) Varanasi- New Delhi Special (04073) leaves Varanasi at 09:50 and reaches Lucknow at 16:05.

3) INDORE EXPRESS(19314) leaves Varanasi at 16-00 and reaches Lucknow at 22-25.

4) SADBHAVANA EXP(14015) leaves Varanasi at 11:45 and reaches Lucknow at 18-20.

5) NEELACHAL EXP(12875) leaves Varanasi at 07:38 and reaches Lucknow at 13.30.

6) VARUNA EXPRESS(24227) leaves Varanasi at 04:45 and reaches Lucknow at 09.50.

The quickest option is by train. Road journey on this stretch is just not worth it.

Selecting the right train is important. Depending on the number of halts, the journey can be anywhere from under 5 hours to as long as 10 hours.

We would like to thank you and your team for organizing a fabulous tour for us. A very special thanks should go to Mr. Santosh Ardalkar who was our tour manager. He was vigilant and careering us all the time. The support we got at the airport truly made us more comfortable. The schedule and appointment worked out well. The driver was an excellent with a good temperament and we never felt tired after a long journey mainly due to his careful driving. He was always smiling and was helping the aged people. The guides were always very keen to share their knowledge of the sights we visited and were keen to be flexible to meet our requirements. The hotels were very good and provided lovely mix of modern & heritage. We wish your company success. Once again thank you for the comfortable journey we had. Regards Chethana & Lakshmidevi

Dear Veena World Team, I hope this email finds you well. I recently had the pleasure of embarking on a tour organized by your company, and I felt compelled to express my utmost satisfaction and appreciation for the outstanding experience we had. Our tour was led by two exceptional tour managers, Harshal Laxman Pansare and Saumitra Ranjan Pradhan. Their dedication and commitment to ensuring the success of our tour were truly remarkable. Their friendly and helpful demeanour made us feel right at home throughout the journey. This was especially important as we were travelling with a group of 28 elderly individuals, and their attention to their well-being was heartwarming. Harshal and Saumitra consistently demonstrated their punctuality and proactive approach in handling various situations. Their ability to make quick, informed decisions on the spot greatly contributed to the smoothness of the tour. Furthermore, their in-depth knowledge of the places we visited added an extra layer of interest and engagement to our experiences. One aspect of their service that stood out was their skill in keeping us engaged during long road routes with captivating stories. It was a fantastic way to make the journey enjoyable and memorable. Moreover, I was deeply impressed by the respect and care they showed to every member of the group, regardless of age. Managing a group of older adults on a fast-paced tour can be challenging, but Harshal and Saumitra handled it with patience and grace, ensuring that everyone had a wonderful time. the overall experience with Veena World was exceptional, and I look forward to future opportunities to explore with your company. I wholeheartedly recommend Harshal Laxman Pansare and Saumitra Ranjan Pradhan as tour managers, as they truly went above and beyond to make this tour a memorable and delightful experience for all of us. Thank you once again for providing such an outstanding travel experience. I look forward to more adventures with Veena World in the future. Warm regards, Rushikesh Ware
