Every pilgrimage has a story, and in India, the most powerful stories begin on the ghats of Varanasi, in the sacred temples of Ayodhya, and at the holy Sangam in Prayagraj.
With Trip Holidays Planner, your journey is not just about visiting destinations but about walking through centuries of devotion, culture, and timeless traditions. This Varanasi Ayodhya Prayagraj tour package is designed to give you the essence of spirituality with comfort, storytelling, and local experiences woven in.


Varanasi – Where Eternity Lives on the Ghats

The journey begins in Varanasi, also known as Kashi, the city of Lord Shiva. As dawn breaks, the ghats come alive. Imagine yourself on a wooden boat, gliding over the Ganga River, while the rising sun paints the sky in hues of gold. The chants of mantras, the ringing temple bells, and the sight of priests offering water to the river create an atmosphere that words can hardly capture.

A Day in Varanasi

Your morning starts at Dashashwamedh Ghat, where the sacred rituals take place. As the boat sails past Manikarnika Ghat, the eternal flame of life and death reminds you of the cycle of existence. By afternoon, you find yourself walking into the majestic Kashi Vishwanath Temple, one of the twelve Jyotirlingas, where devotion flows as ceaselessly as the Ganga herself.

Top 10 Places to See in Varanasi

  • Kashi Vishwanath Temple – The heart of spiritual Kashi.
  • Dashashwamedh Ghat – Famous for the evening Ganga Aarti.
  • Manikarnika Ghat – Sacred cremation ghat, symbol of moksha.
  • Assi Ghat – Popular for sunrise prayers and yoga sessions.
  • Sankat Mochan Hanuman Temple – Beloved temple for Lord Hanuman.
  • Bharat Mata Temple – Unique temple dedicated to Mother India.
  • Ramnagar Fort – A glimpse into royal heritage.
  • Banaras Hindu University (BHU) – Center of learning and spirituality.
  • Sarnath – Where Lord Buddha gave his first sermon.
  • Godowlia Market – Bustling lanes of Banarasi silk and handicrafts.

Food and Culture

No trip to Varanasi is complete without tasting its soul through food. A plate of hot kachori-sabzi in the morning, a glass of lassi in the afternoon, and finally, the famous Banarasi paan after dinner connect you to the cultural rhythm of this eternal city.


Ayodhya – Walking in the Footsteps of Lord Rama

From the ghats of Varanasi, the journey continues to Ayodhya, the birthplace of Lord Rama. Here, history and faith meet in every corner of the city. As you walk through its lanes, the chants of “Jai Shri Ram” echo, filling your heart with devotion.

A Spiritual Experience

The newly built Ram Mandir stands tall, symbolizing centuries of devotion and faith. Standing before the grand idol of Lord Rama, devotees often find themselves overwhelmed with emotions. A climb to Hanuman Garhi, perched on a hill, rewards you with both divine blessings and panoramic views of the sacred town.

Top 10 Places to See in Ayodhya

  • Ram Mandir – The magnificent temple of Lord Rama.
  • Hanuman Garhi – A must-visit for Hanuman devotees.
  • Kanak Bhawan – Celebrating the love of Rama and Sita.
  • Treta ke Thakur – Houses ancient idols from the Treta Yuga.

  • Sarayu River Ghats – Ideal for serene evening walks.

Cultural Glimpse

If you arrive during Deepotsav, Ayodhya glows with millions of lamps, creating a divine spectacle that feels straight out of the Ramayana. It’s not just a city, but an emotion — where every temple, ghat, and street whispers tales of Lord Rama.


Prayagraj – The Sacred Confluence of Faith

Finally, the journey brings you to Prayagraj, the city of the Triveni Sangam — where the Ganga, Yamuna, and Saraswati rivers meet. Taking a holy dip here is believed to cleanse lifetimes of sins. As your feet touch the cool waters, the power of faith feels almost tangible.

A Day in Prayagraj

After the Sangam, you visit the mighty Allahabad Fort, built by Akbar, where the immortal Akshayavat tree stands. The city also holds political history at Anand Bhavan, the Nehru family residence, now a museum.

Top 10 Places to See in Prayagraj

  • Triveni Sangam – The sacred confluence of rivers.
  • Allahabad Fort – Historic Mughal fort with Akshayavat tree.
  • Khusro Bagh – Mughal-era garden with intricate tombs.
