Feedback
Earlier when I came across the name archeological splendour, I thought it would be like other tours. But to my surprise after reaching the sights of the Ajanta and Ellora caves I found them several times beautiful than my expectations. I would suggest this tour to those who have interest in architecture.


Wow! Trip to Ajanta and Ellora caves was an amazing experience. Constructed several centuries back, these caves still retain their old charm. From the paintings of Ajanta caves I understood better about the life of Lord Buddha.


On of my friend told me about the Archelogical splendour tour. As I am an architect so very soon I planned a trip to Auranbad. Ajanta and Ellora caves are really architectural masterpieces and deserve a visit. Trinetra tour made my trip more memorable, I am really thankful to Trinetra.
