Lonovala - Karla & Bhaje Caves, & Lions Point - We had a wonderful 12 hour day to the countryside from Mumbai, starting at dawn. The caves and carvings were amazing and it felt serene and spiritual. It was a fairly strenuous walk up many stone steps to each of the caves in the humid heat, but well worth it, and plenty of places to stop and rest. The caves felt like a cool, refreshing reprieve at the top. The Karla caves have many stalls along the way selling a range of souvenirs for travellers and offerings for worshippers. We had a wonderful guide, who was patient and knowledgeable, and it felt good to know about his charity work and university studies. The driver was careful and safe, despite the hair raising traffic getting out of Mumbai. I liked that this tour company is an NGO that supports female workers and children in the poor areas of Mumbai.

Epic Hill Top adventure - Thank you for a wonderful visit today. Hardik was a very friendly and knowledgeable guide and he explained all the details perfectly. The two caves were fascinating, and the paramonic view of the valley was stunning. We enjoyed the meal at the restaurant and we weren't expecting it to be so good - how wrong we were! It was a special treat to visit the Darshan Chikki business. We bought some of the delicious sweet treats for our friends too! A special shout-out for the driver who looked after us on the road. Overall, it is a thoroughly enjoyable day out and a chance to leave Mumbai and reach out to nature and the great outdoors.

Excellent day out of the city. - Excellent day out of the city. Beautiful views and a delicious lunch in the best company posible. Pooja as the guide and Ashafak as the driver are the perfect duo. I felt safe all the time even when I suffer from PTSD. Ashafak is an excellent driver. And Pooja, this young woman goes out of her ways to try to place you. Took so many good photos of me. Being traveling solo that’s so helpful. Was good also to be picked up and drop off your hotel. And the 500 steps up to the caves were the perfect exercise lol Will plan my other tours with them for sure.

Very pleasant day touring! - I thoroughly enjoyed my day trip with this company. Kamlesh was my guide & spoke excellent English, was attentive but still very relaxed & good company! I found the Buddhist caves very interesting & the drive into the hills of Lonavala very scenic.

A scenic trip from Mumbai - I had a lovely trip with Kamlesh and Prabhakar. The caves were very interesting and the nature on the way was very beautiful and lush. They also took me for a really good local lunch.

A brilliant day trip - Hello! Did this tour last week and it was the highlight of my trip to Mumbai!! Our guide Kamlesh was very kind, informative and helpful, beginning the tour before we’d even left Mumbai. He took us to visit two ancient caves, a local sweet factory and restaurant and an incredible vantage point. The scenery at Lonavala was stunning, incredible green hillscapes, waterfalls and ancient architecture, but it was Kamlesh who made the whole thing extra special, proving context to everything we saw and going the extra mile to make sure we had a good time. Couldn’t recommend enough!

Worst travel experience - Stay away from lonavla if you do not own a personal vehicle. Local transport (cabs and autos ) are cut throats. They will charge you unjustified high fares. Some places in lonavala are worth seeing, but the local transport kills all the good things about the place. Also they will prevent cab aggregators like ola and uber. Came once, not coming again.
