Back in the year 2014, during my final year of graduation I had an excursion trip to Mumbai with my fellow classmates and seniors from college.
It was a 3 days 2 night journey by train from Guwahati which is almost approx 2086 km, and a 2.5 hours journey from Shillong ( my hometown) to Guwahati Railway Station.
We were almost 30 of us including our faculty member and admin officer. We had our stay at the ‘Meghalaya House’ (in Navi Mumbai).
It was an awesome experience and yes definitely my first experience to a Metropolitan City.
It was only ten days trip for us but we had our best time. We visited the Gateway of India, Chattrapati Shivaji Terminus, the Elephanta Caves, Juhu Beach, some of the famous temples and yes ofcourse the children parks hehehe.
This was also my first time experiencing a delicious Pav Bhaji ( the Mumbaikars’ delicacy)
The best thing that I like about visiting Mumbai was the 1 hour ferry ride while visiting the Elephanta Caves from Gateway of India.
It’s been 6 long years since the last visit and I’m looking forward to explore Mumbai once again.
A charming story @Be_Merry
Glad to know that you liked Mumbai.
In the next trip, you should visit the hanging gardens, the queens necklace & Chattrapati Shivaji Maharaj Vastu Sangrahaly.
Hello @Be_Merry and thank you for sharing with us your experience from Mumbai.
As a foodie Pav Bhaji got my attention, can you tell us a bit more about it?
By the way, I relabeled your post to Travel, where you’ll find information about exciting places, receive travel recommendations, get advice on taking solo trips, and more.
Thank you so much @Giuseppe7980 for being so thoughtful and writing. I’m glad to know you’ve travel around India. Btw I’m from Meghalaya (also known as the Abode of Clouds). I hope one day you’ll explore our state too.
very nice experience, I can still remember my school trips and they were simply wonderful. I hope you enjoyed Mumbai and wish you to visit it once again very soon.
Thank you for sharing it with us, stay safe and happy guiding.
HEYY
Stay connected I’ll be happy to post more content.
