This was our first trip to western India. Ellora and Ajanta caves were the absolute highlight of our trip. There is a reason that Ellora caves is on the 20 rupee note! We booked our trip through Agora Voyages, the were excellent, and arranged every detail, from transportation to Aurangabad from Mumbai, to overnight lodging since we broke our trip into multiple days. The highlight our tour was our guide Sanjay. Sanjay was incredible knowledgeable, and tailored our trip to our experience. Aurangabad is off the path from the usual tourist destinations, and therefore having a knowledgeable guide (and driver) was essential. Sanjay was both an organized planner, and incredible knowledgeable. Many of the places have a rich cultural heritage, that could have been easily been overlooked without a guide pointing out (for Americans, you'll feel like Indiana Jones). Our experience in India was much richer for Sanjay. I would recommend trip to anyone who likes temples, archeology, and is looking for an experience that will create a once in a lifetime story.
