Prayagraj One Day Tour
A spiritual day trip from Varanasi to the sacred Triveni Sangam confluence, where mythology and history come alive.
Varanasi to Prayagraj: A Day at the Sacred Sangam
A one-day Varanasi to Prayagraj tour brings you to India's most sacred river confluence, the Triveni Sangam, where the Ganga, the Yamuna and the invisible Saraswati meet. It's one of the most sacred confluences in Hindu mythology, and a place of pilgrimage for anyone visiting Varanasi. One private AC cab, one full day, door to door from Varanasi and back.
Built for travellers who want to see the Sangam, the Reclining Hanuman Temple and the Nehru family's Anand Bhavan without arranging their own transport, over a comfortable same-day round trip.
What Your Day Looks Like
A full day on the road and at the Sangam, from an early pickup in Varanasi to a same-day return, with the confluence, a rare temple and a piece of history in between.
A peaceful boat ride out to the meeting point of the Ganga, Yamuna and the invisible Saraswati, with the option of a holy dip, or snan, at the confluence.
One of India's only temples built around a reclining Hanuman idol, a unique and rarely-seen form of the deity, close to the riverbank.
The historic ancestral home of the Nehru family, now a quiet museum holding original documents, photographs and personal belongings.
Pass by the park where revolutionary Chandrashekhar Azad made his last stand, along with other colonial and revolutionary-era landmarks around the city.
A comfortable 3 to 3.5 hour drive each way, passing rural landscapes and small towns along the way.

We reached out to Varanasi Guru and connected with Saurabh for help planning our short trip. His recommendations were spot-on, and the guided visits were perfectly timed and smoothly executed. Truly a hassle-free way to explore this soulful city.
Smooth, well-organized trip from start to finish. The cab was comfortable, the driver punctual, and the whole day felt easy despite covering so much ground.
One of the best experiences we booked through Varanasi Guru. The day felt personal, not touristy, with real local insight along the way.
Very helpful in coordinating our plans, with useful tips on timing and what to prioritize. Strongly recommend this company for day trips out of Varanasi.
