About operator:

Kashi-the word means ‘Concentration of cosmic light’ and it’s the oldest name of Varanasi - the most fascinating city in the world. My name is Rajeev Rastogi, I was born and raised in Varanasi. My highest knowledge about Varanasi’ history, geography, society, culture, tradition, everyday life is a value added to make unforgettable your experience in this land. I’m a tour guide since last 2006 and I deeply believe that this job is not just telling visitor about monuments or destination, but it’s a vocation, the reason of my life to create a cultural bridge between people from all the world and my loved India: I used to help visitors to discover the real soul of this land, often breaking down prejudices to see the magic mystical power of the city and its people. Me and my collaborators are able to make any tailor made trip in and around Varanasi, satisfying each our customer’s desire. So, if you are planning for a day tours in and around Varanasi- then please feel free to write us.
