@thewanderlusters5973 Hi sir, i am planning next week to drive from bangalore to south goa colva . Do you still prefer this as a best route as best to your knowledge ? If yes, please also do suggest best route for coming back from north goa to Bangalore.
Took same route while going with my friends in 2019! It was good! Always start your Goa journey from Palolem (south Goa). It is the most peaceful place compared to other places in Goa. Please spend some time in Palolem beach in the evening sun set.

Hey Sourabh , glad that the vlog helped you and thanks for your feedback. Please subscribe to our channel if you like. Hope to read your comments in upcoming videos.
Thanks a lot! I completed the journey using the same route on April 05, and I must say it was my smoothest entry to Goa in my last three attempts in five years. Here are a few suggestions and facts for others: 1. NH48 to Tadas goes via a Vilage. Must avoid odd times. I used it around 8 am, and locals bullied me at two places. But for Village Road, it was really Good. 2. Karwar to North Goa really takes time, so plan for it. if you are planning for South Goa and this could be the best choice 👍 3. Apart from a few places where work is in progress on NH48, you going to love the Road till Goa.

If you are driving to Goa, would recommend to go to Dandeli for river rafting. You can see our experience here. It is a must do activity if you are in south Goa ! studio.th-cam.com/users/video_ue6AOs7LOM/edit
I went further north to Maharashtra and then returned to Bangalore. I would have taken the same route if I were to come back directly to Bangalore. Please subscribe to the channel if the video was informative.
Hi, appreciate your guidance through this video. I need a help. If i want to reach Ponda, Goa. Which route you would suggest. The one in this video? Or something else.. kindly advise..
For Ponda, I would suggest you to drive till Dharwad and then take left to Alvanar-Ramnagar-Mollem-Ponda route. Hope this helps. Please subscribe to our channel if you like.

Nice informative video, thank you. Could I ask a few questions? 1. From where in Vangalore did you start? 2. I see the route you took did not have many dhabas/restaurants. Do you still feel this is the best route? 3. BLR to Goa would be a 10 - 10.5 hour drive with two 30-minute halts? While returning, did you take the same route back?
Answers in same Sequence: 1. Sarjapur Road 2. Dhaba/restaurant locations are in Tumkur, Chitradurga, Davangere, Yellapur and Karwar. So you can plan based on what time you reach at these locations for breakfast/lunch/dinner. Normally I start very early so reach Goa by lunch time or carry my own lunch for flexibility. 3. Yes I would take the same route back unless I travel to some other place. In this trip I travelled further to Maharashtra so took a different route back to Bangalore. Hope this is helpful. Thanks for watching the video, please subscribe if you like as we keep doing long drives and share experiences.
How is the 20 km around tadas road after leaving NH48 and before joining NH52. How much time to cover this patch of 20 kms? Shall we instead go to hubli bypass and join NH 52 from there?
Depends on how you drive. You can cruise over 100Kmph in NH 48 and NH66 and on the rest between 60-80 except the patch of 19 km village road. Overall average will come to 55 -66 Kmph. Hope this gives an idea. Please subscribe to our channel to support us.

Yes, this is still the best route. A bridge at Karwar has collapsed so there is a diversion. So follow this video up to Yallapur and then follow Google maps. From where exactly you will return from North Goa?
@@thewanderlusters5973 thankyou for the update. it's Baga in North Goa we would be traveling back from. Also what your suggestion regarding bakapur- yellapur route ,it shows 30km less and 20 mins less.??
@shabby348 then you can take Ponda - Molen-Anmod - Dharwad bypass - Davangere - Bangalore route. A section of road after Anmod is not at its best, but this is the best available. Please subscribe to our channel if you find it useful.
Hello, nice video, a quick question to you. I am travelling to Siolim in north Goa. Do you still recommend this route or should I go all the way to Belgaum -> MH -> Goa or Dharwad -> Goa -> Ponda -> Siolim ? Hoping for a response :)
Good question, you need to choose between open 1. route I shared or Option 2. Belgaum - MH- Sonaval route. Option 1 definitely have smooth road conditions, especially from Karwar till Siolim but you need to cross through Goan towns slowing you down. Option 2 is shorter on paper but the roads are comparatively rough/bad. Avoid option 2 if you are crossing Belagavi after sunset. So choose between better road(option 1) and shorter distance (option 2). Would love to know what you choose and how the experience was. Have a safe drive! Do subscribe to our channel if you find it helpful. We keep doing road trips.
@@thewanderlusters5973Appreciate the quick response :) Subscribed. Have a friend who is from Belgaum. He suggested the Anmod ghat section and not via Belgaum. Will update based on how I go.

Typically we need to pick route based on climate. I have tried 4 routes so far, Via 1.Mundgod, yellapur 2. Anmond, Mollem(Main), 3.Khanapur, Chorla Ghat, 4.Sirsi, Kumta This is new to me. Next time will try this Tadas one (only 18 to 20 kms of strange road). Thank you.
Yes, you can check this route. I have done the other ones as well , found this one best in terms of road condition and distance. Also if someone is not comfortable with ghat road, then this is the easiest one. Do subscribe to our channel if you like. We will be posting more trips and experiences.
This route is a boon. However, the route between TADAS and Kalaghatgi is really really bad. Also few major patches on NH52 while in the ghat area makes it a bit cumbersome. I have not yet explored the route via Yellapur to Bankapura. If anyone can update on this as I believe it should be constructed by now (was under construction last new year) please respond here. Thanks
He he he 😄 good question. I think it is the excitement of the trip helping me get up early. I am used to driving 5000-6000 KM trips across India so it became a habit. Being disciplined and adequate rest is important in such trips. If you like our vlog, please do subscribe to the channel.

You have not shown it precisely. AT 8:39 you are showing "we are here" with blue line showing left turn, But you went straight to Timmapur and Muthalli from there you took service road and made a V left turn followed by Indian oil. You can see 360D picture of the places in the google map. Thanks , It took some time but I found the route.
I don't think you have followed the video and audio properly. There is no need to drive till Timmapur and Muthalli. At 8:39 you need to take the service road and take left within 800metres at TADAS. It is quite simple.

@@thewanderlusters5973 is it chorla ghat or anmod ghat ?
It is neither chorla or Anmod ghat and I don't see a prominent name for this ghat section. This section is much shorter and easier than Chorla/Anmod.

You can drive to Dharwad bypass, then take left to reach Ponda via Anmod - Molen. From Ponda drive to your destination.
@@thewanderlusters5973 isn’t there a bypasss from Ponda ? Or do we need to drive through Ponda
