This yatra joins three of the most revered places of Uttar Pradesh in one unhurried yatra: Kashi, the city of Lord Shiva on the banks of the Ganga; Prayagraj, where the Ganga, Yamuna and the unseen Saraswati meet at the Triveni Sangam; and Ayodhya, the birthplace of Shri Ram. All three lie within a few hours’ drive of each other, so the whole circuit fits comfortably into five days.

You spend two nights in Varanasi, which gives time for an early-morning Kashi Vishwanath darshan, the evening Ganga Aarti on the ghats and a visit to Sarnath without rushing. From there a private AC vehicle takes you to Prayagraj for the Sangam snan, and then on to Ayodhya, where the yatra closes with a morning darshan at the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Mandir.

The plan is built for families and elderly yatris. Drives are kept to one long stretch a day, temple visits are timed to avoid the worst crowds where possible, and meals are pure vegetarian. If anyone in your group needs a wheelchair, a slower pace or a ground-floor room, tell us while booking and we will plan around it.

Pickup is in Varanasi and drop is in Ayodhya, so you can book a one-way train or flight in each direction. Our yatra team stays in touch with you by phone and WhatsApp throughout the yatra.

Route

Varanasi (2 nights) → Sarnath (day visit) → Prayagraj (1 night) → Ayodhya (1 night) → drop at Ayodhya airport or railway station

Good to know before you book

Mobile phones are not allowed inside the Kashi Vishwanath temple area or the Ram Mandir premises. Leave them at the hotel or in the lockers near the entry gates.
Sugam (queue-less) Darshan at Kashi Vishwanath is a paid service sold by the temple trust. Book it only on the official website, shrikashivishwanath.org, and avoid anyone offering quick darshan for cash near the gates.
Darshan and aarti passes for the Ram Mandir are issued free of charge by the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra trust through its online portal. Walk-in darshan is also available.
On big festival days (Mahashivratri, Shravan Mondays, Dev Deepawali, Ram Navami, Diwali) temples may suspend online bookings or special darshan, and queues can run for several hours.
Wear simple, modest clothes for temple visits and carry very little: a small cloth bag, ID card and some cash is enough.

Yatra Highlights

Early-morning Kashi Vishwanath darshan and the Ganga Aarti on the Varanasi ghats
Holy dip at Triveni Sangam by boat in Prayagraj
Ram Lalla darshan at the Ram Mandir, plus Hanuman Garhi and Saryu aarti in Ayodhya

Day 1 :

Arrival in Varanasi and evening Ganga Aarti

Our driver meets you at your arrival point (airport, railway station or hotel) at the agreed time (Varanasi airport or railway station) and takes you to the hotel. Rest after the journey and have lunch on your own.

In the evening, head to Dashashwamedh Ghat for the Ganga Aarti. It draws a large crowd, so reach early to find a good place to sit. A boat to watch the aarti from the river can be arranged on request at extra cost. Dinner at the hotel.

Overnight: Varanasi

Day 2 :

Kashi Vishwanath darshan, Varanasi temples and Sarnath

Start early for darshan at Shri Kashi Vishwanath, when the queues are usually shorter. Close by are the Annapurna temple and Kaal Bhairav, the guardian deity of Kashi. Leave phones and bags at the hotel or in the temple lockers.

After breakfast, visit Sankat Mochan Hanuman temple, Durga Kund and the New Vishwanath temple on the Banaras Hindu University campus.

In the afternoon, drive a short distance to Sarnath, where Lord Buddha gave his first sermon. See the Dhamek Stupa and the surrounding ruins, and the museum if it is open that day. Return to Varanasi for dinner.

Overnight: Varanasi

Day 3 :

Varanasi to Prayagraj, Sangam snan

After breakfast, check out and drive to Prayagraj. Go straight to the Triveni Sangam, where a boat takes you out to the meeting point of the rivers for a holy dip and puja. Pandas are available at the ghat if you wish to perform rituals; their dakshina is paid directly.

Later, visit the Bade (Lete) Hanuman temple near the Sangam, the Akshayvat inside the fort area, and the Alopi Devi temple. Check in to the hotel for dinner.

Overnight: Prayagraj

Day 4 :

Prayagraj to Ayodhya, Saryu aarti

After breakfast, drive to Ayodhya. On arrival, check in and rest.

In the evening, visit the Nageshwarnath temple and sit at Ram Ki Paidi on the banks of the Saryu for the evening aarti. If you plan to have darshan at the Ram Mandir next morning, keep your darshan pass (if booked) and ID ready tonight. Dinner at the hotel.

Overnight: Ayodhya

Day 5 :

Ram Mandir darshan and departure

Leave early for darshan of Ram Lalla at the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Mandir. Many yatris first pay respects at Hanuman Garhi, and we can plan the morning that way. Phones, bags and electronic items must be left behind, so travel light.

Return to the hotel for breakfast and check-out. If time allows, visit Kanak Bhawan and Dashrath Mahal on the way. Drop at your departure point (airport, railway station or hotel) (Ayodhya airport or railway station) for your onward journey.

Frequently Asked Questions

Expand all

How many days are needed for Varanasi, Prayagraj and Ayodhya?

Five days and four nights is a comfortable minimum. Two nights in Varanasi let you see Kashi Vishwanath, the Ganga Aarti and Sarnath without rushing, and one night each in Prayagraj and Ayodhya covers the main temples and the Sangam snan. If you want a slower pace, we can add a night anywhere on the route.

How do I book Sugam Darshan at Kashi Vishwanath?

Sugam Darshan is a paid queue-less darshan run by the Shri Kashi Vishwanath Temple Trust. It is booked online on the trust’s official website, shrikashivishwanath.org, against a photo ID. Check the current fee and open slots on that site. Slots fill quickly and may be closed on major festival days. Do not pay touts near the temple who promise quick darshan; police in Varanasi have arrested people for doing exactly this. We can help you book on the official site once your dates are fixed.

Are mobile phones allowed inside Kashi Vishwanath and Ram Mandir?

No. Phones, smartwatches, cameras and other electronic items are not allowed inside the Kashi Vishwanath temple area or the Ram Mandir premises. Both places have lockers or cloakrooms near the entry, but on busy days these can be crowded, so the simplest option is to leave phones at the hotel with one family member or in the vehicle.

Do I need a pass for Ram Mandir darshan in Ayodhya?

No pass is required for general darshan; you can join the normal queue. The Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra trust also issues darshan and aarti passes online through its official portal, and the trust does not charge any fee for these passes. Timings are set by the trust and can change, so we check the latest schedule for your travel date.

Is this yatra suitable for senior citizens?

Yes, with some planning. There are no treks, and all travel between cities is by private AC vehicle. The tiring parts are the walk to Kashi Vishwanath through the old lanes, the ghat steps and long queues on busy days. Tell us about any health or mobility needs when booking so we can pick suitable hotels, plan rest breaks and arrange e-rickshaws or wheelchairs where available.

What is the best time of year for this yatra?

October to March is the most pleasant, though December and January mornings can be foggy, which sometimes delays trains and flights. April to June is very hot. During the monsoon the Ganga rises and some ghats and boat rides may be closed. Festival dates such as Dev Deepawali, Mahashivratri and Ram Navami are special but very crowded, so book well ahead if you want to travel then.

How do I reach Varanasi from Dehradun, and how do I return from Ayodhya?

Travel to Varanasi and back from Ayodhya is not part of the package, so you can choose the train or flight that suits you. Varanasi and Ayodhya both have an airport and a railway station. Share your city and dates and we will suggest connections that match the pickup and drop times.

How do I book?

Call us on +91 78178 98687 (also on WhatsApp) with your travel month, number of yatris and their ages. You can also fill in the enquiry form on this page. We will confirm hotels and the final price, and share the booking details once you are happy with the plan.
