A Motorbike Tour that puts you at ease without much taxation to challenge yourself - here is an experience - the serpentine roads keep you wondering as to what is next road bend like with the cold breeze of the autumn season relaxing us.
This motorbike tour is for people looking for an insight into the rural life of India with a great view of the lush green forests of the Shayadri’s and grand forts of Kathingad, Tikona, Sudhagad & Telbaila on the way. Not to forget the beautiful lakes of Mulshi & Pawna as well. This motorbike tour will take you around the Tamhini ghat which is splendid post monsoon with Karvy flowers which bloom once in 7 years in full bloom coloring the slopes purple.
The program is so crafted that in general it will meet all the aspirations of a keen backpacker. Also it is our endeavor to give you enough space, time & mileage to drive over the isolated portions, the highways and the serpentine road of the hills. Adventures for the novice through expert level riders. This is not just another "tour", it is an Adventure tailored to ones desires.
Tucked away between Mumbai and Pune, this region of Bhor ghats & its majestic forts looks over the stunning beauty of our country. Villages where everyday life still follows long established traditions, and where time almost seems to have stood still. We are drawn by the stunning scenery, the outdoor adventure and the special atmosphere that pervades the clear mountain air.
We shall relax at Lonavla for the night and leave the next day for Mumbai.
