A 10 days South India photo tour to Kerala and a Varanasi extension. The night Fire Theyyam and Elephant Festivals with a fascinating exploration on our own deluxe house boats ending at the Kerala Backwaters. The description of the numerous activities and experiences are described in detail on the itinerary bellow.
On the Varanasi 5 days Optional Extension we will get to know a different city to the one other tourists see. With time to enjoy our stay in contrast to the hustle and bustle of Shamans, boatmen, pilgrims, cows, tourists, barbers, and fake Sadhus. We will cross to the other side of the river where no one normally goes, to admire the city from another perspective and witness the daily coming and going of pilgrims. We will stroll though the back streets of the ghats, the alleys, and discover temples outside the normal tourist route. We will meet people there, and wait for the certainty of the unexpected to happen.
Please visit my personal work on Varanasi as well as some posts on my Varanasi at dawn. This is where I took in 2012 the picture that won and later lost the National Geographic Photo World Contest.
