Both the guides we had Subhan and Pankaj were very helpful. Pankaj in particular did a great job and explained things in a way that was very informative, interesting and easy to understand. He was able to answer any questions without any problems. The home cooked meal we had which was prepared by Pankaj’s family was very delicious!.
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We’re delighted to hear that Subhan and Pankaj took such good care of you during your tour. It’s especially great to know that Pankaj’s clear and engaging explanations made the experience informative and easy to understand, and that he was able to answer all your questions with ease. We’re also very happy that you enjoyed the delicious home-cooked meal prepared by his family — it’s always special to share authentic local hospitality with our guests. Thank you for choosing us, and we hope to welcome you again for another memorable experience in Mumbai!
A bit expensive for what it is (6000 rp) as I could just have taken the boat myself to Elephanta Cave, but giving it 5 stars as the service by Deepak (the driver), the guides Pankaj and Javed was exceptional 👏 and beautiful tour!

Overall a very good trip, our guide Yash has taken care of us from the very first moment until the last one. The visit at the caves was in depth and allowed us enough time to enjoy the great place. Best thing they did not pressure us to buy anything at the various shops along the way, which is very appreciated.
Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful review! We’re delighted to hear that you had such a good experience and felt well taken care of by Yash from beginning to end. It’s wonderful to know that you enjoyed an in-depth visit to the Elephanta Caves and had enough time to truly appreciate such a remarkable place.

Great visit of the caves with Jay and Pankaj - super attentive and knowledgeable about the place and its history. Do not miss it!
Had a tour with Pankaj. It was awesome must recommend. He gave me a great introduction into the history of the place as well as cultural background
The caves were amazing, I highly recommend this tour. Priti and our driver, Saddam, picked me up and Priti was with me on the way there on the ferry, over to the island, and on the way back. For the tour itself, someone on the island has to guide. His name was Trikal and he was a little difficult to understand. Saddam was a great driver and Priti got me everywhere seamlessly. She's also great to talk to, with a wealth of information.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience and for highly recommending the tour! We’re thrilled to hear that you found the caves amazing and that Priti and Saddam made your journey smooth, informative, and enjoyable from pickup to drop-off. Priti’s company and knowledge are truly appreciated by many guests, and we’re glad you connected with her as well. We’re also happy to know that Trikal guided you through the caves on the island — he’s incredibly knowledgeable as a local expert, though we understand that sometimes accents can be a bit difficult to follow. Your feedback is valuable and noted. Thank you once again for choosing to tour with us. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back for more Mumbai experiences in the future! 🙏✨
The trip to the Elephant Cave was sublime. Our guide, Subhan Sayyed, guided us perfectly to and from the island. The boat ride takes about an hour. On the island, we were given a wonderful tour by a local guide who lives there. This excursion is truly enriching - highly recommended.
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback! We’re delighted to hear that your trip to Elephanta Caves was such a sublime and memorable experience. Subhan is excellent at ensuring a smooth journey to and from the island, and we’re glad you enjoyed the relaxing boat ride as well. It’s wonderful to know that the local guide on the island added even more depth to your visit with his insights and lived experience. Elephanta truly is a special place, and we’re happy the tour felt enriching for you. Thank you for the high recommendation — we truly appreciate it and hope to welcome you back for more experiences in Mumbai!
Having done many guide tours in different cities and countries, I can really say that my guide in this one, Priti is the sweetest girl in the world. She welcomed me with a beautiful smile and explained me the itinerary. Then in every stop she explained all about the sites we visited. On top of that Dipak the driver was also kind and warm, always on time to pick up and drop off. I highly recommend this tour.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear that Priti’s warmth and knowledge made your tour special, and that Deepak ensured everything was smooth and comfortable throughout the day. Your recommendation means a lot to us. We’re glad you had such a memorable experience!
we did enjoy our tour, but we had to cut out a lot of it as the “2 hour” elephanta trip took up 5 hours of our time. the caves were beautiful, but we wish we’d known how long it would take luckily our guides helped us determine the best stops, which were some absolutely gorgeous buildings with rich history behind them. Sharon and Prithi (really sorry if i’ve misheard these; Mumbai is loud!) were both absolutely lovely guides. incredibly kind and clever people who offered us so much information and made us feel welcome in this country
Thank you for your thoughtful feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed the beautiful buildings and the insights from Sharon and Prithi. We appreciate your note about the Elephanta trip taking longer than expected and will make sure to set clearer expectations for future guests. Your kind words about our guides mean a lot—they’ll be thrilled to hear they made you feel welcome and informed.
Great tour of the city Including Elephant Caves. Even through the traffic is horrendous in the city, there was no rush to end the tour, and we ended up extending late into the evening.
Thank you for your kind feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed the city tour and Elephanta Caves, despite the traffic. It’s great to hear that you felt no rush and were able to make the most of your day. We truly appreciate your comments and hope to welcome you back for another memorable experience in Mumbai!
