Why this journey works
In the monsoon the ghats are at their greenest, and also at their busiest and wettest. This one-night version keeps the scenic drive short and the resort central, with safety and traffic checked first.
Day by day.
Day 01 A monsoon drive
- Morning
- The drive from Pune or Mumbai, checked for rain and traffic before you leave.
- Afternoon
- A short scenic drive or viewpoint, if conditions are safe.
- Evening
- Dinner at the resort.
Memorable noteMonsoon weekends bring heavy traffic and slippery viewpoints; we plan around both.
Day 02 Rainy morning and home
- Morning
- A slow breakfast while it rains.
- Afternoon
- Head home before evening.
Memorable noteDaylight driving is safer in the monsoon.
