A Quieter, More Personal Way to See the Ghats
A private boat is reserved for your group only. You can take the time to talk, take photographs, ask your boatman about the ghats and ask for the ride to be paced the way you like it.
It works well for families with children or elders, small groups of friends, couples, photographers and visitors marking a special occasion on the Ganga.
