Varanasi, Ayodhya and Prayagraj Tour Packages: how this trip works

This circuit joins three of the oldest religious cities in the Gangetic plain: Varanasi, Prayagraj (Allahabad) and Ayodhya. They are close enough to cover in a week and rich in rituals, ghats and temples.

Ayodhya's Ram Mandir opened in January 2024 and draws large crowds, so planning the darshan and timings matters.
