Banaras Wala Tours
My name is Vinay Singh. I was born and raised in Varanasi and have spent over a decade guiding visitors — from solo travelers to YouTubers and documentary crews — through its sacred streets. Living here all my life has given me deep knowledge of Varanasi’s hidden corners, traditions, and spiritual rituals. Each tour is tailored to your interests: taste safe street food, see a sunrise at the ghats, wander old alleys, visit hidden temples, and experience how spirituality shapes daily life. Tours last three to four hours and cover major historical and religious sites, ghats, cremation grounds, narrow lanes, markets, and secret spots that reveal the real Varanasi. Along the way, I share not only history but also stories about daily life, local customs, and my own experiences growing up here. My goal is for you to leave with memories and insights you won’t find in any guidebook.

Every part of the tour can be tailored to your interests. If you wish, we can take out a boat for sunrise to capture the ghat or walk through the markets, and if you get hungry I can lead you to restaurants or street food that is safe to eat for travelers.

These ceremonies are at the heart of spirituality in our city, and with my tour you will be welcomed by the local people here to photograph some of the most sacred moments of life.
