Where to start
What Dev Diwali Boat Booking Includes
"Dev Diwali" and "Dev Deepawali" name the same Varanasi festival, held on Kartik Purnima when diyas line the ghats along the Ganga. Sending a Dev Diwali boat booking enquiry through this page is how you request a boat to take in that illumination from the river, rather than watching from one spot on land.
Shared booking
Individual seats alongside other travellers — a more affordable, per-seat option for solo travellers and smaller parties.
