          Few days in Aurangabad
          Two words, if I am allowed to be brief, Just Wonderful. Any trip is made by the drivers of your cabs and we interacted with two great persons from Akvin Tourism during our trips of the Caves and the Lonar crater lake. They informed us, guided us, drove us arround and took complete care of us! What a brilliant luck we had! Thanks TripAdvisor for making us meet them and take their services!

          Unforgettable Ajanta and Ellora Experience with Akin Tourism
          Ajanta and Ellora Caves are truly extraordinary places that must be seen to be believed. Their magic is undeniable, and my experience was made even more special thanks to Akvin Tourism. Everything was seamless—from the local guide, who grew up in the area and shared invaluable insights, to the skilled driver who made me feel safe navigating India’s bustling streets. The attention to detail and care provided by Akvin Tourism truly elevated the entire experience. I can't imagine visiting these incredible sites any other way. Highly recommended!

          Friendly organizer,well managed trips,best experience in India
          I have been to India 4 times and I found Akvin Tourism as my best travel buddy. They have always organised my stay, food, transportation to offbeat destinations. I couldn’t have seen real India without Akvin. Recently, I was in Aurangabad for March 2024. I had a pleasant time visiting the places around. Akvin tourism organized my stay and taxi. Driver was friendly, English speaking. Now, I’m planning to come back again in September and definitely, Akvin Tourism would be the only choice to travel in India.

          Aurangabad and Akvin
          Friendly and yet professional- that is how I would describe Akvin Tourism's services. There is a personal touch to all they do. My trip to Aurangabad, Ajanta and Ellora was amazing and smooth. My driver Salman is a sweet and helpful guy. The guide Mr Pankaj is very knowledgeable about the historical sites I visited. Overall, thank you Akvin for giving me this experience.

          Great, safe, timely reliable service provided by Salman & Akvin.
          Timely, safe, good service - these things are really important when travelling solo. I did the 2 day UNESCO sites tour which included Ajanta, Ellora and Bibi ka maqbarra. Drivers name was Salman. He turned up at the appointed time with a clean car. He was courteous and polite and was a very good driver. He explained about the sights we were going to see, arranged guides at Ajanta and Ellora. The guides at both places were really good. He stopped for coconut water and cough medicine when I asked him. He made sure I had enough water on me before embarking on my caves adventure in the heat. I found Akvin through Tripadvisor from other peoples reviews and I’m pleased to say I made the right choice by booking them. They were a very reasonable price compared to others and included a/c car, driver, entry & guide. I would not hesitate to recommend Akvin and Salman who was really good.

          Best experience in Aurangabad
          I had really good experience and would like to recommend Akvin Tourism. Communication with Mr. Akash was very easy and I could get quick response. The driver in Aurangabad, Mr. Salman is really nice guy. First, he is very friendly. He's always smiling and easy to communicate, speak English very fluently. Second, he is polite and good at taking care of clients. He communicates well but let me sleep when I was tired and sleepy. Also, he kindly brought cold drink when I come back from long walk in Ajanta. Lastly he is very knowledgeable and told me a lot of things including Hindi, Marathi languages, Indian history, culture and food. Thanks to Mr. Salman, we really enjoyed Ajanta&Ellora&Aurangabad and it was fruitful trip. I'll recommend Akvin Tourism and Mr. Salman to my friends. Thank you very much.

          9 days trip to Maharashtra
          We spent 9 days together with Akash and Vincent. We couldn’t choose better. Thanks to Akvin we could see not only historical places, UNESCO heritage, places with strong spiritual energy but as well real life in Maharashtra. We could enjoy authentic places together with local people. Thanks to Vincent’s knowledge we went deeper to the history. We had fantastic home stay in Aurangabad. We felt like a part of the family. It was so nice to meet Akash’s parents and his sister, could talk together and could enjoy fantastic meal prepared by his mother, especially poha 🙂. Akvin provided us professional arrangements with so friendly atmosphere. It was uniq travel experience.

          Memorable, comfortable and happy
          Akvin Tourism has profoundly changed my view of Indian tour agencies. Besides being punctual, accommodating to personal needs and reasonable pricing, their care, sensitivity and good arrangements proved that their only concern was the client. Their sense of professionalism speaks beyond words, it spells of a memorable experience. Thank you, Akvin Tourism.

          5/5 for Akvin
          I'm so happy I decided to book with Akvin...If I instead opted to go by myself, I wouldn't have understood a fraction of the beauty and history found in the carvings and paintings at Ellora & Ajanta. I also had lovely interactions with everyone who worked with Akvin...they were honest and very focused on providing a quality service. Thank you, all!

          Ellora Trip
          Akash from Akvin Tourism helped me organize my trip here. He is very helpful and very honest in how he does business. I also appreciated how flexible he, the guide, and the driver was! They seemed very focused on my experience and ensuring that I enjoyed my time. Thank you, Akvin :)

          Very friendly, imaginative and honest travel agency and homestay.
          We stayed at Akash's place (he has a homestay on AirBnB) and really enjoyed it; we felt invited into the family, and saw quite a bit of Akash and Vincent, who even organised tickets for a great concert that happened to be on during our visit. It wqs great to have someone to chat with in the morning. The homestay is in the city, so transport everywhere is fairly easy, and, incredibly for India, it is really quiet!! If you want to stay there, I think best is to WhatsApp Akash on +91 78753 77569. Aside from that, with Vincent they run a travel business specialised in the state. There is so much more to see around Aurunagad than just Ellora and Ajanta....you could probably spend a week, and have a varied and fun trip. Aurungabad isnt so bad also to get to; there are flights non-stop to Delhi, Mumbai and Hyderbad; but plenty of trains too, and, if you are coming from abroad, they'll organise a train ticket for you (as that is so difficult to do from abroad). Aside from being professional, they are also very nice people and I really recommend that you work with them.

        We planned our stay in Maharashtra with the help of Akvin tourism in advance from France. Vincent gave very good advice on the itinerary, transport times and visits to do.
        On site, Akash welcomed us perfectly in Aurangabad. We visited the Ajanta and Ellora caves with ultra-in-depth explanations from Vincent: a true professional guide! Historical, cultural, artistic and daily life information in India.
        We slept in a historic 18th century house in the small village of Anva. The welcome from the villagers was exceptional (invitation to have tea, visit a farm, see the making of chapati, etc.). This special moment close to the locals remains a very strong memory of our trip!
        We highly recommend the Akvin tourism agency: their availability, responsiveness, knowledge of India and very reasonable prices.
