Robert H, Jan 2017

Our guide was very friendly and extremely knowledgable about politics and current events. He knew little to nothing, however, about the Kanheri Caves- the very thing we'd signed up to see. To make matters worse, he simply made up facts when he didn't know the answer. A quick check on Wikipedia was more enlightening than our tour. We would have been better off on our own with just the driver.
