Travel story
A rich journey in Varanasi that touches ancient prayers and the lives of the people.
At the moment the morning sun hits the Ganges, the sight of people gathering for bathing and aarti (prayer rituals) creates a sacred and otherworldly scene you can never experience in everyday life. Standing in the space where light reflects on the river, incense smoke drifts, and prayer voices resonate makes for a deeply stirring, special experience.
Walk the maze-like lanes of the old city and the vivid streets, the ringing temple bells, and the scents of spices and flowers will stimulate your senses, letting the everyday life and culture of India naturally soak into you.
You can also visit the Buddhist ruins at Sarnath and enjoy a profound cultural experience unique to Varanasi while feeling the weight of history and spiritual culture.
With a Japanese guide, you can learn about the city’s charms and culture while enjoying your own discoveries and special experiences—this is a densely packed journey full of emotion and discovery.
Signature points
Indian pastoral scenes unfolding beyond the window
The transfer from New Delhi to Varanasi is by a comfortable train reminiscent of Japan’s Shinkansen. Through the large windows, fields, village life, rivers and people’s activities pass by one after another, wrapping the carriage in picturesque scenes.
Enjoy breakfast or lunch on the train while the journey itself becomes a highlight of the trip; the time en route to Varanasi is a special experience that engages all your senses.
Even before you arrive at the sights, you can already touch Indian culture and daily life—moments that make your journey’s beginning truly exciting.
A sacred experience touching eternal history
Along the Ganges in Varanasi, you can see up close scenes of people’s prayers and bathing that have continued for thousands of years. When the morning sun makes the river glitter, and incense smoke and prayer voices quietly resonate, the moment deeply moves the traveler’s heart.
This is a special experience where you can sense the sacred atmosphere and the weight of history with all your senses—something ordinary sightseeing cannot offer.
Focused Varanasi stay with high flexibility
Because this plan is specialized for staying in Varanasi, you can join mid-journey or arrange your schedule flexibly.
You can efficiently visit highlights such as the Buddhist ruins of Sarnath and stroll the old city, enjoying the charms of this sacred place at your own pace.
