It is about 130kms from Pune and the road is a delight with the sights. NH7 is a dream ride and plenty of street side food joints to keep you full for the journey. Driving in the ghats is not advisable in the dark so make sure you start early and head back right after sunset.

It is better if you book through a traveller like holidayiq, as they will book everything for you the a/c mercedes coach, a hotel to stay 'as per your budget', they also organise a sight -seeing as per your stay days. this way you dont waste time to look around for hotels or cars to travel or places to visit, hence i would reccomend if you are going with your spouse you better book through holidayiq you will get the best. if you want to travel by your own car try and reach by 8:30 or 9:00 in the morning as the hotels get empty by this time and it will be easy for you to check in directly instead of waiting for their previous guest to check -out.it will also be a great help if you do not have any booking in any of the hotel as at this time you can hunt for the best hotel that you want stay in at the best rates. and dear friends it is in your interest to book the hotel through reliable tourist agent than booking on your own as the pictures on the net of the hotel could be mis-guiding, hence i say book through holidayiq.

After reaching Pune station by train, in the morning we took MSRTC bus from Swargate for Mahabaleshwar. (There is no train going to Mahableshwar directly) MSRTC bus starts in the morning around 6.00 a.m with quite good frequency. But it is better to get reservation to get seat for 3 hour run. (Bus ticket: 90 Rs per seat) For almost all hotels at Mahableshwar, Check in time is 9.30 a.m. and check out time is 8.00 a.m. so one has to plan their tour accordingly. The atmosphere at Mahableshwar is pleasant and full of greenery; definitely it is heaven for someone, coming from concrete jungle. On the last day, we checked out the hotel in the morning 8.00 a.m. and moved to visit few sightseeing points and catched the MSRTC bus in the afternoon 2.00 pm towards Mumbai. It takes 180 Rs per seat in MSRTC bus and 7 hours to reach Mumbai central. You can also opt for private luxury bus (which also start at 2.00 pm) which takes 400 Rs in so called Volvo A/C bus, but before booking, please confirm whether they are reaching to Mumbai directly (in 7 hours) or via Pune (in 9 hours)
