Kanheri Caves Tour in Mumbai

This tour takes you to the Mumbai Kanheri Caves, which are over 2000 years old and provide an exceptional opportunity to understand ascetic life in ancient India.

The Caves date back to the 1st to 10th century BC. They offer an unusual and captivating insight into Buddhism founded by Lord Buddha.

It used to be a Buddhist center of learning. Most of the caves are viharas, where monks lived, studied, and meditated. The dining halls, dormitories, water cisterns, and the traditional and ancient approach to architecture give the Caves its particular charm.

The Mumbai Kanheri Caves are undisturbed and tucked away in the verdant surroundings of the Sanjay Gandhi National Park in Mumbai.

You’ll also have the opportunity to see the idols from the Jain religion, which emphasizes on nonviolence and self-realization.

Even today, in this modern era, you can feel the magnetic aura of this serene, ancient place.

This is a private tour with a native guide from the region, who will explain each cave thoroughly and answer any questions you may have during the visit.
