Do u have any info about it??If so please let me know.

Sorry, dunno much about Western India, man!

by **pavss** » Sat May 10, 2003 6:25 pm

Thats okay TG but why dont u give me the information u have.

by TG » Sat May 10, 2003 6:33 pm

Are you talking of scenic places or religious or both? Honeymoon by any chance? You\'ve got to give details, India is huge man. If you don\'t want to give details, buy a Lonely Planets guide to India and start off - any travel guide for that matter.

Hi, If u want to spend your holidays, Bombay is good place. U have Hill Stations closeby. Matheran is cosy and it is 2 hours ride. U have good hotels there and they offer good accom and rates. There is a train from Neral daily twice. This is in between Kalyan and Karjet Stns. U can go by Taxi also but u have to climb the hill by foot for about 4km. There u may have to use horses for sight seeing. Go to Maharastra tourism site and check out.
Last week I was there.

Hey Doc, thanx for the information! It was quite informative. Can you give me the information of the hotels where you stayed?

by **Doc** » Sun May 11, 2003 9:16 am

Hi! We stayed one night in Kumar Plaza there. AC room is Rs. 850/- Best time to go there is after the onset of monsoon, by the 2nd week of June.
Apart from this, u can see Mahabaleswar, Panchgani(Table top mountain some thing like Capetown\'s table mountain). And famous Khandala. Don\'t plan on week ends as Bombay crowd swamps these places. Good times Ahead.

Hi Doc, that\'s really nice of you to provide all the information. I will try to follow ur advise and plan the trip. Thanx once again.

Hi, Nice of u. I love travelling and of driving around with friends. India is a beautiful country and offers u so much. I will be happy to share whatever info i acquired.

by **pavss** » Sun May 11, 2003 6:01 pm

Ok Doc, that\'s great work of sharing ur exp. So what other places would you suggest for me? Coz I haven\'t crossed the borders of A P until now.

doc that\'s great info.i am also going to bombay in june and will use the info you have given.i wish everyone is polite like you. another doc.

by **pavss** » Mon May 12, 2003 4:00 pm

Hey Suresh... When are you leaving for Hyd. How would it be if we join together and plan the trip???

by **Doc** » Mon May 12, 2003 5:31 pm

Hi Suresh & Pavss: if both of you plan to go it will be fun as well as cheap. If you have companions it is still good. In Bombay you can go to the Gateway of India and from there boats are there to the famous Elephanta caves which are like the Ellora caves. And in the city you can go to several beaches like Juhu, Chowpathi and Marine Drive. Talk to me if you want more.

by **pavss** » Tue May 13, 2003 6:38 am

Thats good idea Doc...
Yes that would be a good idea and i dont know what suresh thinks about it???.As far I am concerned i am all alone planning for a trip.It would be much better if u can provide much information coz I am going to follow ur words and plan for the trip.

by **pavss** » Tue May 13, 2003 11:16 am

Hi sharon,
Can u tell me what r the places which are to be seen and how many days woul it take for the trip.

by **coolguy** » Tue May 13, 2003 8:40 pm

ya.sharon is rgt..munnar in kerala is a damn beautiful place..kerala is one of the 50 must see destinations acc to a magazine(cant recollect the name)..I will try to get u the details abt munnar by 2moro..

by **Doc** » Tue May 13, 2003 10:35 pm

As I was telling, India has sooo manyyyy places to see. Six months ago I spent one week in Kerala. I spent 2 nights in Kovalam beach. If u r a Hindu u can visit umpeen temples there apart from Hill stations, beaches and back waters. Then we proceeded to Tirunalveli and Kanyakumari In Tamilnadu. So Short list what u want to see where u want to go then u can plan.

by **pavss** » Wed May 14, 2003 12:08 am

Hi Cool guy,
Okay i would wait for ur information.

by **pavss** » Wed May 14, 2003 12:12 am

Hey doc,I guess u have\'nt left any place in india.Greeet man
You have a great information with you and it comming out to be very informative.Thanx for all the effort and keep posting the information you have....

by **sharon** » Wed May 14, 2003 1:38 pm

Well, there are lots of places to see on the way to Munnar. The waterfalls of Adirappalli, Vazhachal and some popular spots in Munnar itself. You can spend a good 3-4 days there to be away from the hustle and bustle of city life. I am betting my soul that you will be enchanted with Munnar. Try the resort called Sienna Village, or Mahindra Resorts!!

by **sharon** » Wed May 14, 2003 1:39 pm

And yes, Munnar is just 3 hours away from Cochin which is well connected by rail, road and air!!

by **pavss** » Wed May 14, 2003 1:48 pm

Hey Sharon,
I guess all these places are in Kerala right???
