Elephanta tour - Amazing guide, explained all the statues and meaning behind them. It was amazing going early in the morning with the speed boat, as we were the first tourists to get there and explored the cave with no one else there

Worth the journey for the caves - 1hour boat ride to get there. The caves were fantastic. We had excellent guide for the caves on the island. He was very knowledgeable & took some brilliant photos but f us. Different guides for the boat trip there & back so we were well looked after. As I was not able to walk the stairs up to the caves I was told there was a lift. Turned out to be a sedan chair carried by 4 amazing chaps up & done for about £20. Bit scary! When they say it’s wheelchair friendly it is not, so beware
