Goa is a classic group trip for friends, colleagues and families. By road, one vehicle and driver for the whole trip keeps the group together from the doorstep to the beach and back, with room for everyone's luggage and no hunting for taxis between North and South Goa.
Mumbai, Pune, Bengaluru and Hyderabad groups usually drive down in a day and spend two or three days in Goa. From Gujarat or Indore it is a long drive each way, so most groups plan a week with a night halt on the way. The tables below have the measured road distance and an indicative fare from each city.
Tell operators how many days of local running you need in Goa itself (North Goa beaches, Old Goa and Panjim, South Goa), so the quote covers the whole trip and not only the drive.
