Tour a las cuevas y la isla de Elefanta con múltiples opciones

Our guide Pankaj made the visit special for us. Not only did he explain the history of the cave but also the Hindu philosophy behind the statues. Highly recommended!

Great experience at this UNESCO site island. We got accompanied by Eklavya by ferry (skipping the queues:) and got to hear about every day life in Mumbai and then met local guide Pankaj , who took us to the unesco site.

Trikal was a most excellent guide. He is local to the island and shared his passion and knowledge with humor and deep love.

Trikal was my tour guide for the elaphanta caves. I had 0 knowledge about Hindu gods before coming and I now leave good introduction! Trikal was very friendly, accommodating and informative. Great way to learn the culture and history, including origin of the common words we use nowadays deriving from Indian religion. Thanks for the good time!

We had a great experience with this tour company even though we booked with them on short notice. The manager was responsive and answered all of the questions we had along with helping to identify where a discount can be applied for Indian document holders, which was appreciative. We did the 4-6 hour Elephanta Caves tour and the local tour guide we were paired up with there through Magical Mumbai Tours did a fantastic job explaining the detailed history behind the caves and scupltures and gave us plenty of time for photos. It was a really hot day but he still explained everything with a smile and elaborated where we asked questions. Would refinitely recommend this tour company! They also have women tour guides!

Sahil gave us a fantastic trip from gateway of India to Elephant caves which were fascinating

Thank you Eklavya and Bankaj for being great hosts and being super informative and friendly! We had a great time.

I was met by one guide initially who mumbled and was difficult to understand, and who wasn’t great with personal space. Once we got to the island I was handed over to another guide who took me round the caves. The caves were interesting enough but it would have been better to be just reading a guide booklet and the information boards around the caves. If you haven’t seen a Hindu temple it is worth going but honestly I could have given this a miss. The actual tour part is very short and the best part is as actually the boat journey across the bay. If I had known all of this beforehand I would have organised it myself and explored on my own, which I would say would be worth doing.

We had a great experience going to see the Elephanta caves. The Elephanta guide was very knowledgeable and informative. Juveria was very helpful with coordinating the whole experience. All in all a good tour!

I’m quite happy for having got to see Elephant island and the famous Elephanta Caves, a collection of cave temples predominantly dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva that are now UNESCO World Heritage Site. The preservation of the place is impressive and it is interesting to know more about what is depicted there, as well as the history behind some of its destruction. Grateful for Madoo for having us go up those 120 steps (not as daunting as it sounds) and for teaching us about Shiva, the caves and the island and his community. It took around 1h with him. Grateful as well to Marshal who accompanied us from Mumbai there and back, dealing with ticket and ferry hassle, further to providing very interesting information about the city and its history and culture. The ferry was smooth, 1 hour each way. Do note that ferry and cave tickets are not included in the price of the tour and you’re going to have to pay these extra, but they’re less than 1000 rupees altogether. The whole activity lasted a morning. It was good to have a bit of leave and quiet. I do recommend doing this tour and visiting Elephanta island. Retrospectively, it seems fairly easy to arrange it on your own and get a local guide on arrival to the island, but I liked to do it with Magical Mumbai Tours and have the support all the way through.
