Last updated 10 August 2026
For Ram Mandir, Hanuman Garhi and Kashi Vishwanath Temple, aim for early morning darshan between 6:30 AM and 9:00 AM when possible, as queues can increase later. Temple schedules can change, and midday closure or restricted darshan periods should be checked before planning afternoon visits.
Phones, cameras and large bags may not be permitted inside Ram Mandir and Kashi Vishwanath Temple. Use the designated lockers or storage facilities where available and carry a valid government photo ID for hotel check-in and required security checks.
Wear modest and comfortable clothing and remove footwear before entering temple areas. Ayodhya and Varanasi are generally hot and humid during summer and monsoon months, while winter mornings can be cool, so pack according to the travel season.
Expect walking through temple complexes, narrow lanes and riverside ghats, with steps at places such as Hanuman Garhi and Ram Ki Paidi. Senior citizens can request a slower sightseeing pace, convenient vehicle drop-off points and additional rest breaks where practical.
Regular temple visits and many sightseeing places are free, while special darshan, donations, boat rides and optional services may cost extra. We confirm the agreed itinerary, hotel, transport and applicable charges in writing before travel, with no advance payment required.

Founder & Pilgrimage Travel Expert
Uttar Pradesh, India
Amit Kumar Deshwal was born in Uttar Pradesh, and the pilgrimage circuit he now plans for a living is the one he grew up around. What began as showing visitors the temples he already knew has become a full travel operation — but the working knowledge underneath it is still first-hand.
More than 15,000 guests have travelled with him. Families, elderly parents, first-time visitors and large temple groups — enough of them, over enough years, that very little surprises him now. He knows which darshan queue is worth joining at seven in the morning, which one is not, and what to do when a temple changes its timings on a festival day without telling anyone.
His ground is Ayodhya and Varanasi, extending west into the Braj circuit of Mathura, Vrindavan and Agra. That range matters more than it sounds: it is the difference between handing a guest an itinerary and being able to say, from having stood there, how long the walk actually takes.
The reason Ayodhya Varanasi Guides exists is a frustration he heard from guests over and over — a different agent for the cab, another for the hotel, a third for the guide, and nobody accountable when a darshan slot fell through. His answer was to put all of it in one place, under one number, with the pricing written down before anyone travels.
Every itinerary on this site is planned or reviewed by Amit and his team, and corrected whenever conditions on the ground change.
