  • Dashashwamedh Ghat — closest to the main Ganga Aarti, most requested for sunset couples
  • Assi Ghat — southern ghat, easy parking, quieter for a relaxed evening
  • Namo Ghat — modern, spacious ghat, comfortable for milestone family celebrations
  • Ravidas Ghat — the most private boarding point, ideal for a low-key intimate evening
