Hello All,

There are chances of a 5 day break in September, and I was keen on a road trip to Hampi from Mumbai with the wifey and a 3 Year Old. Wanted some advice and suggestions on the same. This is a tentative plan if Missus agrees to the Road Trip. The longest Road trip I have done is Mumbai - Rajkot a couple of times and that was easily done in a day (750 - 800 Kms), starting from Mumbai at 5:00 AM and reaching Rajkot by 6:00 after 2 breaks.

Anyways, this time I am with a toddler, and on roads that are unfamiliar, so here goes a very tentative plan:

6th September - leave at home by 5:00, pick wife from work at 6 - BKC, Mumbai (can be early if possible).
7:45 PM stop for dinner.
11:30. Halt at hotel for night.

7th September:
Leave by 7:30 AM
9:00 - Stop for breakfast
12:30-1:00 - Stop for lunch.
3.30/4:00 - Check in at hotel
Evening - enjoy hotel

8th September
Sight seeing

9th September
sight Seeing

10th September
Check out at 12:00
Stop for lunch
Drive till 7:30/8:00 and check in at hotel

11th September
Leave by 8:30 AM
Reach home by 6.:00 PM


We will be driving in a Petrol AT Alcazar. Wanted suggestions on best routes to take, and where should I probably take halts for the nights on both the sides.


Any advice and help would be highly appreciated.


Thanks

Er... so much planning and thought for a simple drive that's little more than a local groceries drive?

You have lovely highways all the way through. Leave early in the morning and be there for a late lunch. Repeat on the return.

Cheers

Thanks Mate,

However, I haven't done much driving on that route before and hence am unfamiliar with the route. Therefore was wondering what was the best route to take. So far I am leaning towards:

Bombay - Pune - Satara - Karad - Belgavi - Hospet - Hampi.

However, any inputs on routes would be appreciated.

Regards
