I am interested in this tour. I wanted to know if it was solo or a group tour

This is a group tour and you can book this on private basis as well for solo traveler.

Looking at this tour and wondering what time the drop off time would be at the airport on the final day? I need to organize flights back to Melbourne

On the final 10th day of the tour we will drop you at the Varanasi airport around 2.30 hours before flight time. Traveler have to book their internal flights at their own from Jaipur to Varanasi, and from Varanasi to New Delhi.

Tour was excellent, however viranassi was too long. Arrived very early in morning with full day free until 530 aarti show. Should have done tour of sarnath that day, aarti in evening, then ganges boatride and tour of ghats the following morning and fly out that afternoon. Also accommodation in amritsar, hotel ritz plaza was very dirty. My room and dining room the walls were filthy. My guides were excellent but i had a driver for 3 to 4 days who was an excellent driver but very limited english. Since we were together for long periids of time driving without a guide would have been helpful if his english was better. All in all it was an excellent tour i was well taken care of. As a single woman i felt very safe all the time thanks to tour operators, guides and drivers. Thank you.Show more

  I didn't realize the flights were not included, also with meals how do we go about finding lunch and dinners? With domestic flights how do we book those so they all line up with the tour?

  Traveler•Written April 2022
  If I can stay an extra 2 nights in varanasi what would the cost be? Is there markets to go to or any sightseeing places you might suggest after the tour?
- Alkof HolidaysOperator•Written April 2022
  Cost for 2 extra nights would be USD 70/Night including breakfast. Transport charges extra. We will definitely suggest you some good places in Varanasi to visit post tour. Optional: You could also visit Bodh Gaya, which is 265 km from Varanasi, it is the place where the Buddha attained enlightenment beneath a sacred Bodhi Tree.
