A private cruise means the boat is booked only for your group, not shared with other travellers the way many cruises touted along the ghats are. That gives you control over timing, how long you stay near a particular ghat, and whether you want the ride to include the Ganga Aarti, a sunset stretch, or simply a quiet loop from Assi Ghat toward Manikarnika Ghat and back.

Private cruises here are priced per cruise rather than per person, so the cost depends mainly on the cruise category and duration you choose rather than how many people are in your group, within the boat's seating capacity. That makes a private cruise a reasonable option for a family or small group travelling together, and it also means there are no surprises about per-head pricing once you are on board.

Most private rides run the stretch between Assi Ghat and Manikarnika Ghat, passing Tulsi Ghat, Kedar Ghat and Dashashwamedh Ghat along the way, though the route and duration are ultimately built around what you want - a quick hour-long ride, a longer sunset-to-Aarti stretch, or a custom celebration setup with decoration and music. Tell us your date, preferred time and roughly how many people are travelling, and we will confirm the right cruise and price over WhatsApp.
