Ajanta & Ellora Caves, Aurangabad and Lonar Meteor Lake, 6 days from Mumbai

Magnificent Caves, sculpture and paintings

No journey anywhere near the Aurangabad District of Maharashtra State would be complete without a visit to the Ajanta and Ellora caves. These magnificent ancient Buddhist rock-cut architecture and cave paintings depicting the life and legends of the Buddha are an absolute must see. And 5 Senses Tours makes this journey safe, easy and, in general, incredible by coordinating the travel to the sites, lodging and accommodation and great guides that provide in-depth background on the caves and life in the region.

Remarkable paintings and sculptures

We took this 6 day tour with Five senses tours to see 2 world heritage monuments at Ajanta and Ellora. These masterpieces are really one the best works of man. The Ajanta paintings are so life like. The temple at Ellora needs to be seen to be believed. The entire temple was carved out of Mountain top down. Zero margin for error. Incredible! Our guides were remarkable and the food was fantastic as well. We also enjoyed the lonar meteorite landing site. It a giant crater lake and our guide got his apparatus to show why the water is alkaline and saline at the same time. We were convinced after seeing a few more anamolies, about the extra-terrestrial impact on this land. The tour was organised remarkably well. I look forward to my next trip with this wonderful team.
