Kanheri Buddhist caves magical amongst Mumbai hustle - Kanheri Buddhist caves were the perfect anecdote to hustle of Mumbai. We booked with getyourguide and our guide Rakesh was incredible. Forget the elephant caves - a national park - ancient buddhist caves carved into the side of a mountain was magical and serene - without the crowds. Rakesh has lived there there all his life playing as a boy amongst the caves and cricket in open areas. HIs love of the site and insight made this tour special. And his patience explaining significance of the various monuments and caves was truly an experience. Very grateful for his time and the experience with getyourguide who made it easy. Even an AC vehicle to pick us up. Thank you Rakesh🙏

Worth seeing - Great experience with our trusted organizer Aarti, who made it very easy and made our way very enjoyable with our driver Mukesh, always attentive and helpful and, in addition, taking pictures and recommending us Good places to stop for lunch. On this day we had a very complete excursion in which we visited the caves of Kanheri and the Golden Pagoda, both with spectacular views. Totally worth seeing.

Excellent experience - The guide and the driver were really friendly and know about the caves. We were not able to climb to the last caves as it was raining and the route is a little risky but what we can see was awesome. What can make the tour even better is include for example as they are part of the national park to visit the Tigers as optional part.

Nice one day trip near mumbai - Pradip Madgaonkar - I literally can not believe I grew up in Mumbai oblivious of this rich and extensive piece of history. Because it was extremely hot when we went, we did not visit all 109 caves. The ones we did cover were staggeringly beautiful and serene. The scale, complexity, practicality, and precision of the architecture are incredible for the time. I definitely intend to return and finish the rest. Naturally, on a relatively cool day.
