Amazing Guide and visit - Super recommend going to the Elephanta Caves, this is one of the best experiences I had in India. Starting with the ferry I loved the tranquil voyage and views. Then hiring a tour was essential! Not only did I understand more of the history but it made the trip memorable! Thank you Pankaj for being one of the best tour guides I have had! You were funny, clever and gave us all the best tips!

Great guide for one of Mumbai's most interesting attractions - We took this guide for our group of 5 friends. He was extremely prepared on the sculptures and the history of the caves. He was able to make us understand Hinduism and appreciate the temple. He was by far the best guide we had in our India trip!
