Trip to Mumbai

Mumbai a city of dreams

We started our journey from Pune to Mumbai
Me and my friend took a bus from the Swargate bus stand of Pune

1) The best way to reach Mumbai is through train, as it will drop you to Shivaji terminal. From there you can visit gateway of India / Taj hotel/ main tourist spot, which is 2-3 km.
Either you can choose to walk (5min distance) or take a local bus to the Gateway of India

* don't miss to see Shivaji terminal at night, it's amazing and a world heritage site

2) A second option to reach Mumbai is through bus.. Which will drop you to Mumbai west,
It will be a very long journey full of traffic jams and etc.
Then from Mumbai west you need to get a bus to gateway of India or Shivaji terminal

*Near gateway of India you can get a bus for Mumbai Darshan

* to see Elephanta caves you need to get a ticket of the ferry near the gateway of India. Try to get it from government counter. You can book it between 10am to 3 pm
Also from there you can book a ferry ticket to go and see islands like Mandava etc.

*you can choose to stay in a dormitory in the Shivaji terminal railway station. It's only 250rs for a day, full AC & clean room.
You need a railway ticket and can book it on the spot.
