Ajanta & Ellora questions, answered

What is the best time to make this trip?
October to March is cool, clear and comfortable for sightseeing across Maharashtra. The monsoon (June-September) turns the Sahyadris green and fills the waterfalls, though the caves and forts can be slippery. The summer months (April-May) are hot on the Deccan plateau around Aurangabad, so an early start each day helps.
Anything to know about the Ajanta & Ellora caves?
Ajanta Caves are closed on Mondays and Ellora Caves on Tuesdays, so we plan the itinerary around that. The roads towards Ajanta can be slow due to construction, so those days start early. A licensed guide at the caves is optional and payable directly, and is well worth it for the history and the murals.
How long does darshan take at Shirdi and the Jyotirlinga temples?
Shirdi Sai Baba darshan normally takes up to 2 hours and can stretch to 4+ hours on Thursdays, weekends and festivals. Trimbakeshwar and Grishneshwar can take 2 hours on a normal day and 4-5 hours during festivals. On busy days we recommend booking the Special/VIP darshan (payable directly) to save time.
What should we pack?
Comfortable walking shoes for the caves, forts and viewpoints, a hat and sunscreen for the Deccan sun around Aurangabad, and a light jacket for the cool hill-station evenings. For the temples, carry modest clothing, and if you travel in the monsoon add a raincoat or umbrella.
What kind of hotels are included?
You choose the category, Standard (3★) or Deluxe (4★ hotels and resorts), and the price adjusts accordingly. Rooms are on twin-sharing with breakfast included. We list the primary hotels for each stay; if a primary hotel is sold out we provide an alternate of the same or higher category at no extra cost.
