Its best to take a maharashtra state tourist bus from aurangabad or other towns from where they operate, especially if u're travelling alone. Summer time dont forget to carry a hat and water bottle. hats are available there, but expensive. do buy one if u forget to take along because the heat is killing. keep sipping water as you walk.

Amazing Ajanta and Excellent Ellora

Have powerful torch as the caves are quite dark inside. Photography with flash/ tripod is not allowed. Avoid shoes with lace for frequent on and off. Cover Ajanta during first half as the caves are east facing. Have sufficient water and food at the parking bay of Ajanta as nothing is available at the cave upstairs. Be aware of honey bee caves around as at times they get annoyed. Aurangabad is well connected with the rest of the country in all three ways – Air, Rail and Road and you could search on internet that suits your needs. We travelled from Mumbai and found the following is the best option. 17057 Devagiri Express Daily Mumbai (CSTM) 21.05 Aurangabad (AWB) 04.05, 12 stops, 7 hours, 274km, 3AC – Rs.503. 17618 Tapovan Express Daily AWB 14.35 CSTM 22.05, 12 stops, 7 hour 30 minutes, CC – Rs.403
