Excellent day in Mumbai - Trikal did a very good job as my guide at the Elaphanta Caves. He was very knowledgeable, interesting, and what I liked most was his enthusiasm. Shiva arranged and organized the day. This tour was only one part of what turned out to be a great day in Mumbai. He and Shamsher made the ride to the dock and back interesting, and the boat ride to and from the island exciting and fun! I highly recommend all three gentlemen, they were a great team.

Elephanta caves magical mumbai tours - Elephanta caves are amazing. It's a very good view of our architecture which is 1500 years old. And we had a good experience from the magical mumbai tours. Gautam yadav is a very good, cheerful and friendly tour guide. He did explained a lot of history and is very knowledgeable. I highly recommend the trip with him in Mumbai.

incredible Shiva caves! - Shivam is a very good guide: punctual, discreet, and attentive, he accompanied us on the boat to the Elephanta Caves. On the island, Trikal showed us the rock carvings. His explanations were clear and prolific. Shivam then took us back to the starting point. Thank you both. Everything was perfect.

Excellent two day tour - Excellent day tour. Our young tour guide (Sheena?) was very helpful and went out of his way to buy us a snack for breakfast. Our drive Dildar has been brilliant over our two day tour and he also collected us from the airport. Thank you.

A fascinating cultural and historical experience - This tour was well organised and very interesting. I was unsure about visiting Elephanta after seeing some mixed reviews but it is definitely worth the visit if you appreciate history and culture. Trikal the local cave guide was very informative and explained some fascinating history about the caves. This tour involves a boat ride from Mumbai which is a great way to see the bay. Neha was my main guide for the day and she was absolutely fantastic. Her knowledge about culture, foods and the city was incredible. She really looked after me and we had a lovely tour together. I would highly recommend!

Worth a visit! - Ashmita was our guide and was super friendly and nice. We had a great time! It is a hour boat ride, each way. Just a heads up, be prepared to walk up a bunch of stairs once you get to the island.
