Sitting along the mighty Ganges River, Varanasi is one of the holiest cities in the Hindu and Buddhist faith.
Visit this ancient city, if you came to India on a spiritual journey or to observe Hindu culture where it’s most revealing.
Varanasi is found midway between Delhi and Kolkata. Flight duration from both cities usually takes 1.5 hours. Varanasi-Lal Bahadur Shastri International Airport (VNS) located 26 km away from the city center serves flights from Delhi, Kolkata, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, and Goa. Varanasi is also accessible by train from major cities in India. Travel time by train may take around 10 to 11 hours from Delhi or Kolkata.

Pro tip: Remember to set your minimum/maximum price, travel dates, and sort by review ratings. Book sooner rather than later if you already have your dates set. Cheaper-priced rooms and hotels with high reviews tend to get fully booked faster, especially during busy days like weekends, holidays & peak tourist seasons.
