A unique experience in India - This time, Mr. Rajesh Raut guided us to the Ellora cave temples and the local market. Mr. Rajesh explained about Ellora in fluent Japanese, and it was a very meaningful trip. He also guided us to the local market, where there were no tourists, and we were able to have an experience that we don't usually have. Furthermore, when we told him that we were a little tired as we are elderly, he guided us to his house and we were able to take a short rest. It was a good experience that gave us the opportunity to learn about the real life of an ordinary Indian family. We are grateful for Mr. Rajesh's hospitality. If we have the opportunity, we would like to visit India with him as our guide. Thank you very much.

If you are staying in... - If you are staying in Aurangabad be prepared for some lengthy and bumpy journeys to and from the caves, especially Ajunta Caves. However, it is an effort worth making as the caves, both Ellora and Ajunta , are amazing and didn't disappoint. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable, which provided an extra and welcome dimension to the visits.

You'll feel safe here on tour. - It was quite a solid response and I felt safe. They arrange taxis from Aurangabad airport to the hotel, They exchanged money in dollars and yen, they changed Rs.500 into finer money (smaller money is hard to come by), and they brought it to the hotel early in the morning, and I asked them to take a commission, but it was just the amount of the rate. I'm glad I asked you here in a company of integrity.

Great tour - Fantastic tour - visiting Ajanta and Ellora should be a must on an India itinerary. Excellent guide in Mr Ram who showed details I would certainly have missed if I would have gone solo. Would highly recommend this tour.

FAR too expensive - Nice driver, professional service, basically all good - apart from the price. You don’t have a problem hiring a driver on site at short notice and paying half the price for the same service.
