A LONG TRIP FOR A WONDERFUL PLACE

Published on Nov, 2019

We visited Ajanta starting from Aurangabad . The hotel helped in finding a car with driver for the three hours trip to the caves. The road to reach the site is dusty being the new road under construction. Once there the site is estonishing and worthwhile the journey. The caves are reach of paintings but regretfully the light inside is very low , so it is difficult to appreciate the details . A bad note to the indian families we sow there trowing away rubbish and plastics . This wonderful place deserves to be kept with more cleanliness and respect.

Ajantā & Ellora Caves

Published on Jan, 2019

We did a two day tour, first day Ajanta & second day Ellora Caves with KM tours. This was an excellent experience with this tour company. Very professional & dependable services. Mr. Mangesh paid special attention to our itinerary & needs. We highly recommend this company for this world heritage site.

One of the most important sites in India. Difficult road access.

Published on Jan, 2019

One of the great sites of the world. Tough road is dusty and bumpy. An extraordinary site of Buddhist caves with much of the wall and ceiling paintings still preserved. Be prepared, however, for a demanding, long ride with the new highway still under construction. Three hours each way from Aurangabad.

I would like to share my experience here. me and my parents visited this beautiful place during our holidays and it was very beautiful experience. i would like to give special credit to namaste india trip for making my trip here so fun, convenient and hassle free. we had one problem of the driver but we talked to our tour manager who immediately got him replaced. me and my parents thank you for giving us so many memories.

Go for KM - safety and trust - Aurangabad siteseeing

Published on Jan, 2018

Mr Mangesh who owns KM holidays is very enterprising person. Local guy who hails from the Aurangabad area is possibly the best tour guide you can get in there!!we took his services for 3 days we were there in Aurangabad and covered 1 day city tour followed by visit to Lonar lake and Ajanta caves. Few things which stood out for his service as tour guide during my experience -1] Educated person and can speak multiple languages including Marathi, Hindi and English 2] puts customer and their interest ahead of anything else. I needed a driver to drop me back in my car due to some sickness I had on day of departure and he clearly was making sure that I get someone who charges what’s reasonable and not misuse my position to exploit. 3] Safety first on driving and tourist places. Will tell you on things to be aware of at each stop. 4] puts service ahead of everything. Didn’t even took money except small advance till end of tour. 5] doesn’t chase you for commercial interest like local shopping which can be irritating many times. I wish him good success and highly recommend his services if you are looking at good tour guides in Aurangabad .
