Mumbai to Udaipur - A Road Trip

Mumbai - Vapi - Vadodara - Halol - Godhra - Modasa - Kherwada - Udaipur

Yes, you read it right!

Mumbai to Udaipur on a road trip.

It is around 770 kms and we did it on a stretch. All thanks to my husband's passion for driving and my navigation skills.

We decided to go for this driving trip just a day before! One of the reasons to go by road was expensive flight tickets also. But at the end it was proven to be a good decision.

We didn't have much time to decide for hotel. It was one of the long weekends and most of the good hotels were fully booked. We checked on Tripadvisor.com and the best possible options were Amet Haveli and the two hotel managed by HRH Hotels (Historic Resort Hotels). We obviously wanted to stay near the lake side. Amet Haveli seemed as better option as per tripadvisor’s ratings and it was also reasonably priced. So we went ahead with the bookings with Hotel Amet Haveli.

We researched for the route and we were in two minds. One route suggested that we should take state highway after Vadodara, and the other recommended to go via Ahmedabad. We enquired a little more and decided for the former.
