About the Pune to Ellora trip

Ellora is about 253 km from Pune by road, roughly 4 hrs 14 min of driving. A private cab is one of the easiest ways to make the trip. You skip the change of buses or trains and can leave when it suits you. SwiftLux picks you up at your door in Pune and drops you at your exact address in Ellora, whether that is a hotel, a resort or a family home.

The route runs north-east from Pune along the Pune-Ahilyanagar road, then continues towards Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar (Aurangabad) and on to the Ellora caves. The caves are a UNESCO World Heritage Site, with Buddhist, Hindu and Jain rock-cut temples. The Kailasa Temple is the best known. Many travellers also pair Ellora with Daulatabad Fort, Bibi Ka Maqbara and the Grishneshwar temple, and a cab makes that easy to arrange.

You can choose a one-way drop and pay only for one side, or keep the car for a round trip. One-way fares are ₹3,787 for a Hatchback (4 seats), ₹4,328 for a Sedan (4 seats) and ₹5,951 for an MPV (6 seats). Two-day round trips are ₹7,062 for a Hatchback, ₹7,704 for a Sedan and ₹9,630 for an MPV. For the Hatchback, extra kilometres are charged at ₹13.00 per km. Please confirm the extra-km terms for Sedan and MPV, and whether tolls and parking are included, when you book.

Every car is air-conditioned and comes with a verified, professional driver. The MPV suits larger families or groups travelling with luggage. The Sedan gives a little more comfort on a long highway drive. The Hatchback is a sensible choice for two or three people on a budget.

Booking is simple: you can book now and pay later. Send your pickup address and travel date on WhatsApp or book through swiftluxcabs.com, and choose the car that fits your group.

Travel tips

Start early from Pune, ideally by 6 am, so you reach Ellora before the day heats up and have time to see the caves. The Ellora caves are closed on Tuesdays, so plan your date around that. Wear comfortable walking shoes, carry water, a hat and sunscreen, and expect plenty of walking and steps. Allow at least 3 to 4 hours at the caves, and more if you add Daulatabad Fort or Grishneshwar. If you are travelling with a group or a lot of luggage, choose the MPV for extra space.
