About the Trip
Experience the magic of Banaras during Dev Deepawali, a once-in-a-lifetime celebration where the spiritual heart of India comes alive in its most radiant form. Known as the “Festival of Lights of the Gods,” Dev Deepawali transforms the ghats of Varanasi into a mesmerizing ocean of diyas, with millions of lamps illuminating the sacred Ganga River. This extraordinary festival is celebrated fifteen days after Diwali, on Kartik Purnima, and attracts devotees, travelers, and seekers from across the world.
On this experiential journey curated by Desh Videsh, you won’t just witness Banaras — you’ll feel its soul. Imagine taking a sunrise boat ride on the Ganges, watching saffron-robed priests perform ancient rituals, and exploring the vibrant lanes filled with history, art, and aromas of local street food. From the spiritual serenity of Kashi Vishwanath Temple to the cultural richness of evening Ganga Aarti at Dashashwamedh Ghat, every moment here is designed to immerse you in timeless traditions.
The highlight of the trip is the grand Dev Deepawali evening, when the entire city glows under the light of countless diyas, cultural performances, and spiritual chants. The sight of the ghats glittering against the night sky is truly surreal, leaving behind memories that will stay with you forever.
This package is not just about sightseeing — it’s about living Banaras: engaging with its heritage, tasting its authentic delicacies, shopping for silk sarees and handicrafts, and connecting with fellow travelers in an atmosphere of celebration and togetherness.
