All-Inclusive Private Full-Day Aurangabad Caves Tour.

Begin your journey with a hotel pickup in Aurangabad in a private, air-conditioned vehicle for a comfortable day of heritage exploration.

First, travel to the world-famous Ajanta Caves (UNESCO World Heritage Site), dating back to the 2nd century BCE. These 30 rock-cut Buddhist cave temples are celebrated for their exquisite murals, frescoes, and sculptures that depict stories from the Jataka tales — narrating the previous lives of Lord Buddha. With your professional guide, learn about the artistic techniques, symbolism, and cultural significance of these breathtaking masterpieces that have survived for centuries.

After exploring Ajanta, continue to the Ellora Caves (UNESCO World Heritage Site), a monumental complex carved into the Charanandri Hills between the 5th and 10th centuries. Unlike Ajanta, Ellora represents a fusion of three faiths – Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism. The highlight here is the magnificent Kailasa Temple, the world’s largest monolithic rock-cut temple, carved out of a single piece of stone and dedicated to Lord Shiva. Your guide will bring to life the history, architecture, and spiritual depth of these extraordinary monuments.

Optionally, you may also visit the Aurangabad Caves, a cluster of 12 Buddhist caves closer to the city, known for their statues, stupas, and simple yet graceful carvings.

Conclude your day with a visit to some of Aurangabad’s city landmarks, including the Bibi Ka Maqbara, often called the “Mini Taj Mahal”, built by Aurangzeb’s son in memory of his mother.

With all entry fees, guided services, bottled water, and private transport included, this tour ensures comfort, convenience, and a deep cultural experience. After an enriching day, return to your hotel in Aurangabad.
