Vindhyachal & Chitrakoot
3 nights / 4 days
The Shakti and Ramayana sites south of Varanasi, which most itineraries skip entirely.
₹10,999
per person, twin sharing
Vindhyavasini Devi is 70 km from Varanasi and Chitrakoot 260. Together they make a quieter, far less crowded circuit than the Ayodhya–Prayagraj route, and Chitrakoot in particular rewards a full day.
