Important Information

  • We suggest you to wear sleeper because at many points you will need to remove your shoes therefore we request you to wear sleepers. Please remember to bring an Umbrella, Sun Glass and a Flashlight for your tour. An umbrella will be helpful in case of rain or to provide shade from the sun, while a flashlight will be useful for exploring the caves. Please bring along some snacks like biscuits, bottled water, and dry fruits for your tour. Visiting Ajanta and Ellora caves can be a long day, so it's a good idea to have some snacks to keep you going. In some cases, our car may not be able to access very narrow streets or certain areas. If this happens, we'll arrange to pick you up or drop you off at the closest spot where the car can reach easily. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation!
