I had an unforgettable trip to Varanasi with my family, and the walking tours with Roobaroo Walks were truly the highlight of our journey. These experiences didn’t just show us the city—they made us feel its essence, its soul, and its timeless beauty.
The South Walk took us through the cultural and spiritual heart of Varanasi, weaving through narrow alleyways filled with history and life. The Sunrise Boat Tour was mesmerizing, watching the ghats awaken with chants, prayers, and the golden glow of the rising sun. The North Walk offered a deep dive into the city's ancient heritage, while the Food Walk was an explosion of flavors, introducing us to the authentic taste of Banaras.
Each experience was thoughtfully curated and brought to life by our incredible storyteller, Anupam, whose storytelling made history, traditions, and hidden gems come alive. Roobaroo Walks provided a perspective of the city I had never seen before, making me fall in love with Varanasi in a way I never imagined.
If you want to truly understand and experience the magic of Varanasi, these walks are an absolute must! Highly recommended.

Came across Roobaroo walks by chance and a walking tour with them I was told was the best way to get to know Kashi …. Please note the difference, it’s not see and explore the city but to get to know it
The walk with our story teller Anupam left me and our group simply mesmerised !
It was amazing how he introduced us to the Culinary history and current trends , historic and mythological stories , evolution of the city from mythical times to now spanning thousands of years , relevance of architecture and people and monuments and shrines , faith and reverence and what it meant to the past dwellers and current
Thank you Anupam for introducing us to the spirit and of Kashi , Varanasi , Banaras ….
The spiritual epicenter for devine connection as it is known as
Your knowledge , passion , enthusiasm and spirit is unbelievable
We loved the food, enjoyed the tea break , the drinks (non alcoholic ! ) were amazing , the stories and the serendipity experiences you crafted were the cherry on top ????????
