Today, visit the Ellora Caves, another UNESCO world heritage site, which is located about 100 km from Ajanta. These caves are a series of 34 monasteries and temples that were carved out of solid rock between the 6th and 10th centuries. The most famous of these is the Kailash Temple, which is the largest monolithic structure in the world. Spend the morning exploring the caves and admiring the sculptures and carvings.

In the afternoon, head to the nearby city of Aurangabad to visit the Bibi Ka Maqbara, a tomb that was built in the 17th century by the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb in memory of his wife. The tomb is often referred to as the "mini Taj Mahal" due to its striking resemblance to the iconic monument.

Enjoy a traditional Indian dinner at Pind Balluchi, a restaurant that serves authentic Punjabi cuisine.

Start the day by taking a hot air balloon ride over the Ajanta Caves and the surrounding hills. This is a unique way to see the caves from a different perspective and to enjoy the stunning views of the landscape.

After the balloon ride, visit the nearby village of Jalgaon for some shopping. The village is known for its cotton textiles and you can find a variety of fabrics, sarees and other handicrafts here.

Head back to the Ajanta Caves for the Sound and Light Show, which takes place in the evening. The show is a great way to learn about the history and significance of the caves and the stories behind the carvings and paintings.

Take a day trip to the nearby city of Nasik, which is located about 150 km from Ajanta. Nasik is one of the holiest cities in India and is home to several temples and religious sites. Visit the Kalaram Temple, which is dedicated to Lord Rama, and the Trimbakeshwar Temple, which is one of the twelve Jyotirlingas.

After the temples, visit the Sula Vineyards for a wine tasting session. Sula is one of the most famous wineries in India and produces a range of wines that are popular both locally and internationally.

Return to Ajanta and enjoy a dinner of local Maharashtrian cuisine at the MTDC restaurant, which is located near the caves.

Spend your last day in Ajanta relaxing at the Ajanta-Ellora Golf Course, which is located near the caves. The course offers stunning views of the surrounding hills and is a great way to unwind before your departure.

After golfing, head to the nearby village of Pachora for some traditional Maharashtrian cuisine. Try the local delicacies such as Vada Pav, Misal Pav, and Bhakri.
