The Varanasi tour was fantastic! Everything was very organized and timely. It's a long day; however I was very appreciative of the built in breaks. Our tour guide Nilesh was so great and didn't overlook a single detail during the day. I definitely recommend this tour!
This tour started with a very bad note. I had an email telling me I needed to have cash for the boat rides. After an email to Viator querying his, I had a reply, saying they had contacted the provider to confirm that the boat tides were included. There was no further communication until the tour provider turned up at the hotel to tell us we would be collected at 5.45am. The next morning at 5.20 our guide arrived. He had not been told of the time change. He also had been told we were providing the car and driver, so there was some uncertainty to begin. Eventually a car and driver arrived. Our guide, Shashank Basu, was wonderful. He rescued what could have been a complete disaster. He suggested some amendments to the proposed plan, but gave us the choice of going with the original plan. His suggestions were so much better than the original, and we had a wonderful day. He is a superb guide and I cannot recommend him highly enough. The tour provider needs to make serious changes with the organisation and communication aspects of the your. Well don't him for employing Shashank. He is an asset to your business.
