Price

Temples such as Shri Kashi Vishwanath, Sankat Mochan and Kaal Bhairav each have their own timings, security checks and rules on phones, bags and footwear. Queues change with the day of the week and the festival calendar, and Mondays in the month of Shravan can be very crowded. We plan visits around these patterns and tell you what to carry and what to leave behind.

Depending on your tier, a team member can walk you to the temple gate or stay with you through the visit, help with lockers and shoes, and keep the group together. Where a temple offers an official ticketed darshan or puja booking, we explain it and, if you want it, add it as a separate line in your quotation.

We cannot shorten queues, arrange special entry or promise darshan at a particular time. Temple administrations decide access and can change arrangements at short notice.

WHAT WE NEED TO KNOW

To arrange it well.

  1. Which temples you would like to visit, and on which days
  2. Preferred time of day, for example early morning
  3. Whether you want accompaniment, and for how much of the visit
  4. Anyone who needs help with steps, standing or crowds
  5. Whether you want us to look into an official ticketed darshan or puja, where one exists
SCOPE AND LIMITS

What it is, and is not.

  • Planning, timings and guidance for temple visits on your itinerary.
  • The accompanying role, to the gate or through the visit, is stated in your quotation.
  • Official ticketed darshan or puja bookings, where they exist, are separate lines.
  • No queue-skipping, special entry or access privilege is offered or implied.
  • Darshan depends on the temple's own rules, security and crowds on the day.

Added items are requests. If something is already part of your journey and tier it shows as included and is never charged twice.
