What Our Customers Say
Real experiences from travelers who explored Varanasi with us
Driver Rajan is very good and gave best service, he is well aware of local roads and because of which we were able to get darshan in Ayodhya even during this heavy traffic during kumbh mela season and he is a soft spoken and humble person. Overall excellent service
Absolutely we enjoyed the trip. Driver Prathap was great. Overall the travel was smooth. Car was neat and clean. Keep it up
I had an amazing experience with Vinayak Travels at Varanasi. The owner was extremely cordial and coordinated very beautifully. The driver assigned to us was also lovely and very professional.
Excellent Pink Taxi service for women! Felt very safe during my solo trip to Varanasi. Female driver was professional and courteous. Highly recommend their pink taxi service for ladies traveling alone.
Had taken a cab for Ayodhya. I must say this was the most economical option of whatever people I had enquired. And there was no compromise on quality. Superb car and excellent driver service.
I confidently suggest this company services to be best in Varanasi. We had booked 20 seater Bus for our 7 days tour covering Varanasi, Prayagraj, Ayodhya and Lucknow. Driver was nice, polite, punctual & guided us throughout.
Very good service. Manoj bhai is very good driver thanks 🙏
One of the best travel agency in "Mahadev ki nagri Kashi". We booked their services and we are very satisfied. The driver was very knowledgeable and polite, and helped us with our plans.
