List Destination
VARANASI (Uttar Pradesh)
1. Afternoon Tour Boat (river trips)
A dawn rowing boat ride along the Ganges to view the ghats and former palaces from the Ganges is a quintessential Varanasi experience. The best time to make the trip is from 05:30 when it is cool, the early morning light is particularly inspiring and all the colour and clamour of pilgrims bathing and performing puja unfolds before you. An hour-long trip south from Dasaswamedh Ghat to Harishchandra Ghat and back is popular, but be prepared to see a burning corpse at Harishchandra.
Early evening is also a good time to be on the river, when you can light a lotus flower candle (Rs 10) and set it adrift on the water. You can also watch the nightly ganga aarti ceremony at Dasaswamedh Ghat directly from the boat. Deal directly with a boatman and be patient but firm. Although you’ll have the best bargaining power at Dasaswamedh, boats can also be arranged at smaller nearby ghats such as Meer and Manmandir.
Other boat trips are available further along the ghats – from Assi Ghat you could be rowed north to Harishchandra.
