For millennia, the Ganges has been the cultural and spiritual lifeblood of India. Uncover all the history, colour and life of this mystical river aboard an Avalon Waterways cruise along the Ganges. Explore the spiritual city of Varanasi, where you’ll experience the Ganga Aarti, the daily ritual that’s performed in the evenings. Here, locals will light candles and offer flowers, which are floated down the river.
