Price
Quoted for your journey. You see the complete price before any payment.

Many Varanasi hotels and guesthouses near the ghats sit inside lanes too narrow for cars, so the last few hundred metres are on foot, sometimes down steps. Railway platforms can mean long walks and footbridges. A porter turns all of that into a simple handover.

At railway stations we arrange a licensed railway porter or a team member to meet you; at lane-side hotels we coordinate with the hotel's own staff or a local carrier. Tell us how many bags you have and roughly how heavy they are, so enough help is there.

Keep passports, cash, medicines and anything precious in a small bag that stays with you. Porter charges are confirmed in your quotation.

WHAT WE NEED TO KNOW

To arrange it well.

  1. Where help is needed: a station, a hotel lane, a ghat or a boat boarding point
  2. Date and approximate time
  3. Number of bags and roughly how heavy they are
  4. Any fragile items or mobility equipment
SCOPE AND LIMITS

What it is, and is not.

  • Arranged with licensed porters, hotel staff or local carriers, depending on the place.
  • Subject to who is available at that place and time.
  • Keep valuables, documents and medicines with you rather than in porter-carried bags.
  • Charges are confirmed in your quotation.

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