5.00Our family had an excellent experience with Agora Voyages, having been referred by a friend who had previously traveled with them. The Ajanta and Ellora tour was very well organized, and our stay at Dhyaana Farms near Ellora was wonderful. Special thanks to our guide Mangesh for his excellent knowledge and to our driver Shaikh Anwar for his safe and professional service. We stayed with friends in Mumbai, and Agora Voyages also arranged a fantastic Mumbai city tour and Elephanta Caves excursion for us. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a reliable and professional tour operator in India.
One-of-a-Kind Trip to Aurangabad, Ajanta, and Ellora Cave Temples in Central India

5.00Fantastic Trip!! Agora Voyages did an awesome job running our tours and accommodations, and we recommend them to all our friends considering travel to India! The Ajanta and Ellora Caves are “must see” gems in central India. For us, it was well worth the added time to our trip to travel to Aurangabad. Agora Voyages are unrivaled as tour coordinators...excellent communication, coordination, tours and accommodations from beginning to end. The pre-trip experience was tremendous! Agora Voyages manager, Shashi G., contacted us immediately after we booked the trip through Viator to gather all our arrival details, address any special requirements, and answer all our questions. He stayed in constant contact during the five months before our trip to make sure everything went smoothly. He even helped us get train tickets to facilitate our arrival in Aurangabad because we had unique schedule requirements. During the trip, Shashi made sure we knew who would meet us at our arrival point and checked in with us and our guide to make sure everything was going smoothly throughout the trip. The Ajanta/Ellora/Aurangabad tour was exactly what we hoped for...unique, interesting, captivating, and thorough! Our driver, Hamid, met us at the Aurangabad Train Station around noon and settled us into the Lemontree-Aurangabad, an extremely nice hotel near the airport. The Lemontree breakfast buffet was great and we ate all our meals in the hotel restaurant, the food was excellent. Our guide, Inder, met us for our afternoon tour thru Aurangabad city. We went to the Aurangabad city caves, the beautiful ½ scale Aurangabad “Taj”, and the local museum on the city’s history. All these sites were very impressive and whet our appetite for the amazing sites to come. (Note: Aurangabad, being a less visited city had several people interested in getting a picture with a foreigner, since they don’t see many. We had several people ask if they could either take a picture of us, or with us. It is okay to politely decline, but if you are okay with it, they are thrilled to get a picture with a visitor). Day two at the Ajanta Caves was simply breathtaking! These Buddhist temples were carved into a mountainside around a beautiful valley and must be seen to be believed. The amount of work and skill required to dig out the caves; carve the innumerable sculptures, columns, and alters; and paint the incredible murals in the caves is unimaginable. Inder was so knowledgeable on all the Buddhist art and lore that we were spellbound during the 4+ hours we spent at Ajanta. The many temples, together with the backdrop of the beauty of the river canyon with lush green trees and a waterfall at the end of the valley was a sight to behold. We thought the tour couldn’t get any better, then Inder and Hamid took us to the Ellora Caves on day three. The massive cave-temples at Ellora were also amazing. The site has Jain, Hindu, and Buddhist temples carved into the mountainside. There are fewer temples here than at Ajanta, but the Ellora temples are much larger, and are more diverse due to the different religions represented. The enormous Ellora Temple is so big that pictures don’t do it justice. You have to see it to believe it, especially since the temple was hand carved from a single rock. Inder kept us mesmerized with the history of these amazing structures and the meaning behind their religious importance. On our way to the airport (our tour was packed into 3-days, but our flight out was late in the evening so we had some extra time on the third day), we made a short stop at the impressive Daulatabad Fort, a very large 12th century Muslim fortification. The fort is huge and surrounds a small mountain with numerous battlements that go all way to the mountaintop. There is a lot to explore here and plenty of sensational architecture including a mosque and a Hindu temple. We wish we would have had more time to go all the way to the top. Overall this was a “five star” experience from beginning to end. Top-notch management, unmatched guides, great accommodations, and spectacular, “bucket-list” venues. We recommend this trip to anyone that wants a unique India experience.

Ajanta and Ellora Cave 3 day tour

5.00We can highly recommend this tour to the spectacular Unesco World Heritage Ajanta and Ellora Caves. It is hard to describe and to understand how these caves were built, dated from the 2nd century BC, you just have to go and see for yourself! We would not hesitate to book again any tour in India through Agora Voyages. They were very professional, responding to emails quickly, giving advise and the payment system worked perfectly (can sometimes be a problem in India). The car, driver and guide provided were exactly as we requested. Now the roads to the caves are another story but worth the drive for the end result. Highly recommend.
