2-Day Itinerary for Pune, Lonavala, Mumbai (June 2023)

  1. Day 1: Pune
    2 hours (66.5 km) from Mumbai

    In the morning, visit the Aga Khan Palace, which played a significant role in India's freedom movement and is now a museum dedicated to Mahatma Gandhi. For lunch, head to Shabree restaurant for authentic Maharashtrian cuisine. In the afternoon, explore the Raja Dinkar Kelkar Museum featuring over 20,000 artifacts from Indian history. In the evening, take a stroll at the Osho Ashram and end the day with a delicious dinner at the German Bakery.

  2. Day 2: Lonavala and Mumbai
    1.5 hours (64.7 km) from Pune to Lonavala and 1.5 hours (83.1 km) from Lonavala to Mumbai

    Start your morning with a hike to Lonavala's famous Tiger's Point, which offers breathtaking views of the valley. Afterward, have lunch at Fariyas Resort and head to the Karla Caves, an ancient Buddhist rock-cut cave complex. In the late afternoon, head back to Mumbai and explore the historic Gateway of India. For dinner, try the street food at Chowpatty Beach and end the day with a visit to the iconic Marine Drive.

Recommendations

Other local attractions to consider include the Shaniwar Wada and Sinhagad Fort in Pune, as well as the Elephanta Caves and Sanjay Gandhi National Park in Mumbai. For a side trip, consider visiting the hill station of Mahabaleshwar. To maximize your fun, try visiting during the monsoon season when the waterfalls in Lonavala are at their peak. I would also suggest trying out some local street food and taking a Bollywood tour in Mumbai.
