    Sudhakar was the man who drove us everywhere in Aurangabad. Actually I booked their service for 1 day as to see how their service is then felt its genuine. Then again I booked for Ajanta Caves next day. In Day 1 they drove us inside city and Ellora Caves. He is a very humble and friendly person. You will not need any guide inside the Aurangabad city. He will explain everything from his side. Whenever I will visit the city in future surely go with Sudhakar. ...more
