Enjoy the Elephanta Festival on holidays to Mumbai

Flights to Mumbai in February will allow holidaymakers and sightseers to attend the city's Elephanta Festival.

Held each year near the Elephanta Caves, this night-time event allows people to party beneath the stars while taking in the spectacle of the World Heritage site located just across Mumbai harbour.

As well as adding an atmospheric touch to the proceedings, this is also a unique opportunity to see the caves in the dark - an experience not normally available to visitors.

They are normally closed to the public once the sun sets but, during the Elephanta Festival, the caves are illuminated to allow their full splendour to be appreciated throughout the evening's festivities.

Meanwhile, flights to Mumbai in March could take on a fruity flavour as the annual Mango Festival takes place across the city.

This celebrates the fruit with a month-long party featuring a variety of different dishes prepared from mangoes.
