MONSOON TRAVEL

While travelling to Goa can be a fun experience, note that during the monsoons, most modes of travel, such as the railways, will be disrupted due to poor weather conditions. And very often, trains are cancelled or delayed.

MUMBAI TO GOA VIA KONKAN REGION

This is one beautiful road trip, and you will end up making multiple pitstops along the way. The Konkan region turns more beautiful during the monsoons when the mountains are enveloped in clouds and draped in green. Some amazing beaches can also be seen on this route.

BANGALORE TO GOA

The route from Bangalore to Goa via Mangalore offers some breathtaking spots, such as Marvanthe beach (located close to the highway) and the majestic Mirjan Fort which turns into a 'green' castle during the rainy season.
