Hyderabad and Varanasi are about 1,000 km apart by air, and a nonstop flight takes just under two hours. For many Telugu families a trip to Kashi is a Kasi Yatra, a pilgrimage they plan for years. A Varanasi tour package from Hyderabad works best when the travel timing is sorted first, because that decides how much of your trip is actually spent in the city.
This page covers how to reach Varanasi, which trip length fits, and what to know before you book. For a wider look at the pilgrimage itself, see our Kasi Yatra tour package guide.

How to Reach Varanasi from Hyderabad

|---|---|---|
| Hyderabad to Varanasi | Early morning departures | You can land by about 8 am and use the first day |
| Varanasi to Hyderabad | Late morning to early evening | A relaxed last morning is possible |
Nonstop services are limited, so seats on the early flights sell out fast. Book your flights first, then lock the package dates. For airport transfers, see our Varanasi airport taxi fare guide. For other routes into the city, read how to reach Varanasi.

What Kashi Pilgrims Should Know
Kashi Vishwanath Temple, one of the twelve Jyotirlingas, is the centre of the visit. The evening Ganga Aarti at Dashashwamedh Ghat starts around sunset, so check the Ganga Aarti timing guide for your month. Kedar Ghat has long been associated with South Indian pilgrims, and our Kedar Ghat guide covers it.
The old city lanes are narrow and many steps are uneven. Carry a valid photo ID for the temple, dress modestly and keep shoes easy to remove. Tell us your food preferences when you enquire, so we can plan meals around them.
