Aurangabad to Ellora Caves (& back)

tiger07302

So I was able to reschedule some of the stuff and have about 3/4 days before the end of the trip to see the caves. So is that enough time to Ajanta, Ellora, Fort at Daulatabad, Aurangabad Fort and cave? Also, am I missing anything else here?

Thanks.

steven,
Is Ellora Caves open on Tuesday, 20 May 2008? Lonely Planet India says that Ellora is closed on Tuesdays.

What about Ajanta Caves is it open on same date?



Are there places in Aurangabad for leaving luggage for the day in following places:

1. Mumbai, near CST,

2. Aurangabad,



3. Jaipur, and



4. Agra.



Look forward to your prompt reply.

I was curious so I did a search. More confusion !

This is what another site says:
http://www.ajanta-ellora.com/
"Ajanta Caves are open from 0900 hours to 1700 hours on weekdays except Monday.
The Ellora Caves can be visited from sunrise to sunset on all weekdays (except Monday). "

It may be wiser to contact the govt tourist office and find out. The link is at:
