For parents and senior travellers
Easy transfers to and in Latur
- Hire a car and driver for the forts and caves; public transport is infrequent and the sights are spread out.
- Carry water, a hat, medicines and snacks; shops and toilets are sparse near the forts and caves.
- Keep days short: the drive to Udgir and back is long, so pair it with a morning start and a rest day afterwards.
- Ask the airline or railway for wheelchair or porter assistance when you book, not on the day.
- Pre-book the pickup from the airport or station, so nobody has to negotiate with drivers after a long journey.
- Choose arrivals in daylight where you can, and keep the first afternoon free to rest.
