Transport? What should you choose?
The choice depends on the duration of your trip and the places you want to cover. If you are booking an all inclusive package, then you will get a shared bus or private car that’ll take you everywhere. If not, then well, you’ve got to consider some scenarios.
If you are visiting one or two places:
It’s best to travel by train wherever you can, if not train then bus. Both options will be cheaper than a private car (unless you book a Goa tour package with ‘I Need Trip’). Once you’ve reached your destination, you can either rent a bike (if you’re a couple) or rent a car to travel around nearby places of interest. Just make sure you rent a bike only if you have experience driving at hill stations.
If you are visiting more than two places:
It’s best to get a rental car if it’s more than two places that you plan on visiting. If you choose to travel by bus or train not only will you be tired, but hiring a taxi every time for local sightseeing wouldn’t be budget friendly either. So, best get a car and be clear about all charges including holding charges, driver fees, and tolls (if any).
Why wait?
Goa’s got that charm that’ll let the party animal out in you. It gives
the best of both to tourists, a party heaven and a peaceful destination. A Goa tour package can make it possible….
