Manish was a great guide for this Village tour. We really enjoyed our time spent with him and the village experience was amazing. Starting at 8am and finishing at 4pm, it was a great day. We highly recommend Manish if your interested in this village tour.

This was a great day led by my guide Manish. We visited three different villages and lots of roadside places in between. It was a seamless day with great conversation. The villages were great.. welcoming people and only to happy to talk and show you things. Never was there any pressure to buy or give. Best memory..being invited into a very old home by a villager. I feel I gained a better understanding of people through this day. I would thoroughly recommend it.

This was a great excursion out of Varanasi. From the morning hotel pickup to the late afternoon return, it was fascinating. Three very different villages were visited and included watching people at work, talking with local farmers and their families. People were pleased to see us and my guide made me feel relaxed with the communities. It was great stopping at roadsides for a chai and a brief wander around town activities. Everywhere there was so much going on that could be looked at and talked about. A great thali for lunch complimented all this. I can really recommend this day out of Varanasi as it adds several more dimensions to understanding this amazing part of India.
