Ajanta Caves

The Ajanta Caves are a UNESCO World Heritage site located near Aurangabad. The journey to the caves takes about 2 hours, and shuttle buses take another 10-15 minutes. The caves are open every day except Monday, and guests spend 3-4 hours exploring the 30 caves. Cave no. 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 16, and 22 are must-visits. Guests can take photos inside the cave, but flash must be turned off. Camcorder/DSLR cameras require a separate ticket. The tour begins in the morning when the driver picks up guests from their hotel. Your private guide assists in providing entrance tickets (the cost of which is already included in our tour), and the tour ends at the parking area where the driver waits to take guests back to their hotel. The caves have moderate climbing, and the shuttle bus takes visitors to the ticket counter. On the way, guests can stop for breakfast or lunch at a convenient restaurant, at own expense. This tour is perfect for anyone interested in ancient Indian art and architecture.
