How to Travel from Pune to Goa in a Group?
Pune to Goa is honestly one of those road trips that people keep going back to. The distance is roughly 450 km and depending on which route you take and how the traffic behaves, you are looking at around 9 to 10 hours on the road. If you are heading there with a group, the vehicle you pick can either make the trip memorable or a little annoying. Here are the ways most people travel from Pune to Goa with a group.
By Car: If your group is small, say 4 to 5 people, a car works out just fine. You can drive your own or hire a cab from a local agency in Pune. The best part is the freedom to stop at a ghat, grab food at a roadside dhaba, and take a detour if you feel like it. But once your group crosses 6 people, you are looking at two cars minimum and that means more cost and the group ends up split anyway.
By Tempo Traveller: For groups of 8 and above, it is best to take a Tata Winger on rent in Pune to travel in a group together. It is easy to manage one vehicle rather than hiring multiple vehicles, which are hard to manage and the costs are higher than hiring a tempo traveller on rent.
By Bus: Travelling by bus is an ideal choice for a solo traveller but for a group it can be hectic. You also cannot really stop wherever you want, which takes away a big chunk of the road trip experience. Hiring a private bus can be the best choice for the large groups who want to travel together.
