Prakash was undoubtedly the best tour guide we had during our time in India. He is extremely friendly, knowledgeable about Varansi and ensures that you feel comfortable throughout the tour! We actually met Prakash coincidently the day before when we were lost looking for our hotel, and he kindly escorted us to the hotel himself and contacted the hotel as well whilst carrying one of our bags.I highly recommend Prakash for anyone looking for a tour in Varansi, you will not be disappointed! Thank you Prakash for our tour!

If you don’t want to be just an average tourist and want to see the real, behind the scenes Varanasi, choose Prakash as your tour guide! We saw so many cool aspects of the local life we otherwise would have missed on a basic tour! His English is excellent as is his sense of humor! His story, hard work and determination will leave you in awe and inspired!

Prakash made this a journey of a lifetime..Was fortunately introduced to Prakash by the guest house. The tour with Prakash was simply amazing. The by lanes of Varanasi are a welo of mythology, stories, culture, sounds, smells and taste. There is absolutely no better way to have someone as knowledgeable and humble like Prakash to take you through. We spent an entire day with Prakash walked 23000 steps and ended our day with the Ganga Aarti at Dashashwamedh Ghat. That too was organised by Prakash. The following day Prakash handed us over to his friend for a visit to Sarnath and also organised the taxi etc for us. He has been. Super helpful and nice and we never felt that he was taking us for a ride, being pushy or tricky in anyway. It was truly a journey of a lifetime. I recommend him without any reservations.

Prakesh was a lucky find. He is like the mayor of Varanasi. He showed us the way through the crazy alleys and made sure we saw the highlights. His suggestions for food were perfect as well.

Prakash was probably the best guide we had in India. Not only did he know his stuff, he was kind and friendly and had a great sense of humour. His communication was second to none throughout the planning process. We all enjoyed our time with Prakash and would definitely recommend him for your stay in Varanasi. (December 2023).

Varanasi is a wonderful city and thus many tourists visit it. Consequently, there are many guides and most of the people are happy with them. However, if you want to see the real Varanasi, Prakash is the one you need. In the full day walking tour, we visited many places and quite often we were the only tourists together with local people. We walked through very narrow streets and hidden places (where real people were living and working) and had great explanations. Moreover, Prakash is a very honest man and advice you on what to do or not, even against his interests (not selling you useless experiences) and saving you money. I read a lot of comments and contacted a few guides before chosing and I am happy I had the best possible guide, Prakash. Then, in other places in India we had other guides and at the end my wife said that Prakash was the best we had in our whole wonderful journey in this great Country.

Very knowledgeable guide with perfect English Prakash took the time to listen and understand my interests, then customized the tour to fit my interests in order to give me the best experience possible. He speaks perfect English, has a great personality, and really cares about his customers. He is also very knowledgeable about the different sites, culture, history, Hindu mythology, places to eat, and shopping spots. I really enjoyed visiting Varanasi with him.

A diamond in the rough! If you want to see the real, behind the scenes Varanasi choose Prakash as your tour guide! We saw so many cool things and interesting aspects of the local life we otherwise would have missed on our own or with an average guide who just takes you to the obvious tourist sites! His English is excellent and he has a great sense of humor! His hard work and determination can’t help but leave you impressed and inspired!

A very Happy Holi in Varanasi We did a full day tour and a half day day over Holi and we had the best time. We were very worried about going out for Holi (female travellers) but Prakash really kept us safe and we had a great time. I’d definitely recommend!

A Powerhouse of Local, Religious, Cultural, Mythological and Historical Knowledge in Varanasi Prakash ji is the best guide I have come across ever in my life. I engaged his services for a day in Varanasi and I was amazed at his knowledge of history, culture, religion and mythology and the ability to weave it all into amazing stories while showing us around all the ghats and areas around the Ganges. He is fluent in both English and Hindi, is extremely respectful, punctual and possesses inane knowledge about everything Varanasi. He also made us sample and try local cuisine specialties and took us to the right joints to eat delicacies such as Malaaiyo, Chaat, Kachori Aloo, Butter Toast. The day was well rounded off with him arranging to provide us excellent seating option for the Ganga Aarti including Ganga Puja at Dashashwamedh Ghat for the beautiful evening Aarti rituals.He also arranged the trip to visit the Sarnath and the ancient sites around there along with transportation and the best guide for the same.I would recommend Prakashji with my eyes shut to anyone planning to visit Varanasi. Thank you!
