Experience with JK Travels was great. Chauffeur Riyaz was excellent throughout the trip and had shared great insights about the sites we visited during the day.
Santosh Bhalerao made comfortable trip with driving and sight seeing
I booked a tour without guide for Ajanta and Ellora. Mr Mannan is a skilled and very safe driver who made me very comfortable throughout the whole tour. I’m extremely grateful to him for his great service and for an unforgettable weekend visiting these unique sites.
