Thank you so much for your feedback 🙏

From shimla station, an old bus stand is nearby. From the Old bus stand you can get frequent busses that start from there and go to kachchi ghati. Around 20 Rs bus ticket it is to kachchi ghati

@randomviewsdilse thank you 👍

Btw you can board any bus that goes to/via Shogi for Kachi ghati. Hope this helps 🙏

Ha ha, any bad experience brother? I feel that places in any state or country are always beautiful, it is just that not all humans would be kind and civilised.

Yes, you are right that's atal setu on Mondovi river connecting Porvorim to Panjim. And the 2nd bridge is the new zuari bridge also known as Manohar Setu built on the zuari river.

It was 2nd AC with all 3 seats together in adjacent

Yes, local busses are there from the old bus stand. Just that you will have to ask someone there.

@randomviewsdilse thank you 👍💓

Very true, the hotel property and it's location is best

Although not very bothersome, just that between Karad to Kolhapur, the highway work is still in progress and diversions at certain places. If no traffic jam is encountered then no issues. Roads in Amboli ghat at certain patches are a little bad.

@randomviewsdilse Thank you

Thanks for the feedback, I'll keep it in mind for future videos! 🙏

one can drive on these ghat, just be more watchful, drive cautiously and slowly. While going down use engine breaking and avoid very frequent use of brakes. The trick is not to allow the car to move backwards, if at all it comes to the standstill when starting it on the slope. And one can avoid using AC when climbing the slope to avoid load on car engine

AC off while climbing,,🎉

@@solomonjohn9358 Does this applies for Automatic Car also?

@@VijaySingh-ik7bd in general When climbing a hill, the engine is already working harder to overcome gravity and maintain speed. Turning off the AC reduces this load, allowing the engine to focus more on power output. And Depending on the traffic conditions and the car performance, you can choose to keep it on or not. But definitely if while climbing at a speed of stop and go traffic on very long stretches, then better to switch it off irrespective of manual or automatic car type.

Thank you so much for the feedback and encouraging words. Will continue to keep improving 🙏

Hi, since we took the kolhapur belagavi NH48 route, there are plenty of food stops and Kamat restaurants up until belagavi ( belgaum). We took the lunch break at Viraj junction in Koganoli after entering KA. It is a kind of food mall with a variety of options including from MacDonald, KFC, Haldiram. The place is very clean and well maintained including the washroom. But If you wish you can take the food break before Kolhapur in any of the vithal kamat restaurants. And further if you drive to Sankeshwar, crossing nipani, you would see plenty of restaurants and hotels. U can try veg food at Hotel Sai Park. Located in the prominent junction

Beyond that not many good options we found on the highway. So carry along some munching and water to avoid very frequent breaks as travel distance is longer. Beyond Sankeshwar mostly once you cross a major town like belagavi, dharwad, hubballi, Chitradurga and tumakuru you will find few options on the route. We took a break for 20-30 min near Chitradurga before reaching Bengaluru.

There were 5 toll booths and Rs 430 in total was paid

Travel date was of 9th September

8th September we travelled from mumbai. Apologies for the very late reply. 🙏

Roads are mostly very well maintained by BRO and now with sella and nachiphu tunnel open, journey would be even more easy. No issues with Altaroz ground clearance. Just be mindful of curves and drive safely.

@@randomviewsdilse ok thank you

@@randomviewsdilse i heard the power of vehicle use to get lessened around tawang ang bumla is it ok to go?

No issues with power as such encountered. I was driving petrol manual variant infact.

@@randomviewsdilse just talked with taxi driver today morning he said only 5 person can go in Innova coz of decrease in power If it's a myth or fact

Mangalore to Goa is one of the best and scenic highway. One can continuously keep cruising at a high speed. And on the route Maravanthe beach and Murdeshwar is not be missed. Just a 7 hours kind of driving on a proper highway, so nothing to worry about.

​@@randomviewsdilsethank you ❤

Thank you so much for the feedback. Will work on improving on it going ahead.🙏

Thank you so much for the feedback. Will improve on the suggestions 🙏

Ziro itself is a very beautiful place and people are very warm and welcoming. 🙏

@@randomviewsdilse thanks bro you are always welcomed 👍

Although monsoon season mostly last till August, so keep an eye on weather conditions prior to couple of days before the journey and plan it accordingly. Ride safe. 👍

Try Anushkura route to avoid ongoing road construction patches in rainy conditions. Please drive carefully and start early in the morning if possible.The downside of this route is not many eating options you will find and a little bit steep curve at a few places. Keep the Offline map handy. Wishing you a safe and happy travelling.

Bro the road is smooth now. I travelled pune to amboli via ajra on 14th June. Just keep control on speed.

Hi, you can either take the kolhapur - ambolighat - goa route which has plenty of eating options and fuel pumps all along the route. Although just between ajara and amboli, road widening work was in progress so in total 15-20 min drive would be a bit off-road on 6-7 road patches. Otherwise the overall road condition is ok. Another route people also suggest is going via Anushkara ghat from Karad.

Thank you so much for the love and support 🙏

Hare Krishna 🙏🙏

Thank you 🙏

Road work is still in progress, but nothing much to worry about. But after belgaum there were certain stretches where the road was not that great.

any type of car would be perfectly fine, just take an adequate break and keep yourself hydrated and eating light would definitely help in a long roadtrip. Enjoy the journey rather than rush to reach the destination

@@randomviewsdilse was particularly interested in the XUV 700

@@randomviewsdilse thanks for the information.

@ck-fr9nq ok, sorry I missed to mention it that xuv700 I was driving and for sure one of the best car for long roadtrips. Very comfortable and good driving dynamics. The kid and the family always felt very comfortable. High speed driving also feels very planted, but follow the speed limits wherever given. Hope this helps.

Yes, and actually it's not a big deal as such if you like driving on long roadtrip. Just taking adequate breaks in between does help though. Drive or ride till one feels comfortable enjoying the moment. 🙏

Thank you so much for sharing your experience and for the encouraging words. 🙏 And, wow it's great to know that you drove to Sikkim from Mumbai. I am sure it must have been an unforgettable and wonderful experience. For me my most memorable roadtrip so far has been Mumbai to Ladakh and Manali.

@@randomviewsdilse Hi both of you... we are family travelling with kids on this 20 May, from mumbai to goa. Which route should we follow? heard about the road conditions of satara/ kolhapur, which are under constructions? there are 3-4 (ghats) ways to enter GOA, so which ones to take for avoiding potholes ? pls guide.

Thank you for the support 🙏

thank you so much for the comment. Actually i just missed to take underpass in a moment of confusion while following the Google map. I too realised about it immediately once I missed it. But nevertheless Mangalore to Goa highway driving is an amazing and beautiful experience in itself.. ♥️🙏

Thank you soo much brother for the good wishes and you too take care. 🙏
