You have a full free day to engage in independent activities such as visiting local markets, exploring ancient temples, or taking a walking tour of the ghats.
Varanasi - Delhi. It's an early start as we return to Delhi on the 06:00 train, arriving at just after 14:00.

We recommend not booking your international flights out of India for earlier than 20:00, and can assist if you would like to book post-tour accommodation.
