❓ Frequently asked
Planning a trip to Varanasi? Quick answers.
Is Wovoyage safe for solo women travelling to Varanasi?
Yes. Wovoyage is a women-led travel company founded in 2016 and based in Gurugram, India. Every women-only departure to Varanasi travels with a female trip leader, uses stays the team has vetted, and comes with 24/7 on-trip support. Most travellers join alone and share a twin room with another woman from the group.
Can I join a Varanasi group tour as a solo traveler?
Absolutely. Most Wovoyage travelers come solo. You'll meet your group on day 1, and shared-room accommodation is the default so you're never billed a single supplement unless you choose a private room upgrade.
What's the group size on a Wovoyage Varanasi tour?
Wovoyage groups on a Varanasi trip are small on purpose: typically 8 to 15 travellers and never more than 20, so you get to know the group and the trip leader has time for everyone.
