描述

Experience Mumbai’s culture and India’s Buddhist treasures — visit Kanheri, Global Vipassana Pagoda, Elephanta, Ellora & Ajanta Caves on a 7-day guided journey with full-board and private transport.
Embark on a 7-day journey through India’s Buddhist and cultural heartlands, combining the vibrant energy of Mumbai with the timeless serenity of ancient rock-cut caves and monasteries.

Begin in Mumbai, where colonial grandeur and local traditions blend seamlessly. Explore the Gateway of India, Marine Drive, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus (UNESCO), Dhobi Ghat, and bustling markets — experiencing the city’s living heritage through a guided city tour.

Venture into Sanjay Gandhi National Park to visit the Kanheri Caves, one of India’s earliest Buddhist monastic centers. These ancient caves, carved between the 1st century BCE and 10th century CE, once served as meditation halls and living quarters for monks. Later, discover peace at the Global Vipassana Pagoda, a magnificent golden dome built in honor of Buddha’s teachings of mindfulness and compassion.

Sail across the Arabian Sea to Elephanta Island, home to intricate rock-cut sculptures and cave temples from the 5th century CE. The island also preserves early Buddhist stupas and cave structures, offering a glimpse into India’s religious harmony and maritime history.

Continue your journey to Aurangabad, gateway to the Ellora and Ajanta Caves, both UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
At Ellora, explore 34 monumental caves representing Buddhist, Hindu, and Jain traditions. Admire the artistry of the Buddhist Caves (10–12) with their beautiful chaitya halls and viharas. Visit the nearby Grishneshwar Temple and Daulatabad Fort before resting for the night.

Your adventure culminates at Ajanta Caves, a sacred site nestled in a horseshoe-shaped gorge. These 29 caves, decorated with murals and sculptures, depict the life of Buddha and Jataka tales with extraordinary detail and color — masterpieces of ancient Indian art and spirituality.

Throughout the journey, enjoy comfortable 3-star hotels, all meals included, private air-conditioned transport, and the guidance of an expert English-speaking tour leader.

Whether you’re a seeker of wisdom, an art lover, or a curious traveler, this tour offers a meaningful connection with India’s ancient Buddhist heritage and the living culture of Mumbai.
