Review for: Mumbai: Elephanta Caves Half-Day Tour with Meeting Point

It was a nice trip. It took one hour to get to the island and Hamid make nice conversation about Mumbai and Elephanta Caves and at the end of our trip also told us about Gateway of India. Upon arrival on the island, we were met by another guide who took us around the caves and told us their history.

The guide was very kind and talkative. I was seasick and my energy was low halfway through the trip, but he was kind to me. If you know where the boat is, you can buy a ticket and go by yourself. The boat rocks, so you need to take medicine for motion sickness. The sun is strong.

The communication leading up to the trip was very poor, we didn’t get clear information until the last minute. Our first guide also spent a lot of time pushing a 'fast ferry' upgrade for US$25 per person, which felt more like a sales pitch than a tour. However, once we reached the island, things improved. There is so much to see, and the local island guides were incredibly patient and friendly. Great destination, but the initial organization needs work.

It was a short but fulfilling trip. I received help with meeting times and after the meetings, especially with transportation like getting a ride back to the hotel. Mr. Hamid was a great help with the trip and getting around to different destinations.
