If you plan a vacation to Aurangabad in the monsoon season, prepare for heavy rainfall and some restricted adventures.

    I got the feedback from the guest for which I booked the trip they said it was very good until the last hotel named hotel maharaja was booked for us, there were cockroaches and bad smell in the room and this ruined the whole experience, I have given 7 because of that only else this whole trip was 9/10

    Sumit Sharma Pune

    Ramaswamy's 5 days trip to Aurangabad

    Hotels booked are not as expected and situated away from main area. Hotel Aristo at Lonavala is below average. Cab driver was very helpful but always on mobile during driving which I have advised him frequently not to attend phone calls during driving but not followed. Some times he leaves us on the road instead of nearby parking lot to avoid parking fee. Despite some setbacks we enjoyed well. When we went Orissa tour during Feb.25 booked through you, everything was fine
