Varanasi runs on its river. Boats leave Dashashwamedh before dawn for the row past the bathing ghats, and the Ganga Aarti is performed from the same steps at dusk. Two of the ghats, Manikarnika and Harishchandra, are cremation grounds in daily use: they are not a viewpoint, photography is not permitted, and guides will keep their distance. Below are the 14 tours available, what each covers, how long it runs, whether a boat is included and what it costs.
