There is a lot to see and do in Mumbai, but there are also several beautiful places to visit around the city that you may visit on a weekend. One thing is certain: road vacations from Mumbai will provide a scenic drive to enthralling destinations full of surprises. Here are some of the best road excursions from Mumbai that you can take by vehicle or bike:
One of the most popular road trips is from Mumbai to Alibaug. It is becoming a very popular resort, particularly among couples. Alibaug should be on your bucket list if you wish to go on a bike ride.
Attractions: Siddheshwar Temple, Alibaug Beach, Kulaba Fort, Fairs in nearby towns of Awas and Varsoli.
Mahabaleshwar is the spot to go if you want to go on a bike ride. But, before you begin, you should be aware that the route will be long but rather flat, with the exception of the final 50 km ascent up the hill. The sights along this path are spectacular, so you won't get bored.
Attractions: Wilson Sunrise Point, boating in Venna Lake, Needle Hole Point, Three Monkey Point, and markets of strawberries and mulberries.
Nashik receives a continuous stream of visitors virtually all year. The city is well-known for a variety of reasons, not just one or two. From being India's largest grower of onions and grapes to hosting the Kumbh Mela, from having a budding wine industry to housing a stone and coin museum, this city has a lot to offer if you have the time.
Attractions: Sita Gumpha, Muktidham, Harihar Fort, Vallonne Vineyards, Saptashrungi, Coin Museum, Pandavleni Caves, Gangapur Dam
