Many people have gone around the Golden Quadrilateral and have spoken and written about it. The spirit of adventure kindled we started the planning and scouring the internet and the HVK Facebook page and came across a lot of information.
A few guidelines were set, we did not want to drive long distances everyday, we wanted to enjoy the drive and to take in the sights along the way. Not wanting to compete or set a record allowed us a lot of time and freedom. Never more than 600 km on a day and an average of about 400 per day was the target. Night stop over at larger towns or cities so we will be assured of a comfortable bed. No night driving and no stressful driving, meaning no driving at high speeds, risky maneouvres etc.
Travel light, easy and comfortable.
The vehicle is to be our new Hyundai Creta. The first service of the car will be at Vizag.
Date of departure 13th the Friday - November 2015.
Our route will be Chennai - Vijayawada - Vizag - Bhubaneswar - Kolkata - Gaya - Varanasi - Agra - Delhi - Jaipur - Udaipur - Baroda - Mumbai - Kolapur - Bangalore
The distance we expect to cover in the 18 days or so will be about 5600 km.
We will stay two nights in those cities or towns which merit it and have not been there earlier, some of the cities chosen at the time of start are:
Vijaywada
Bhibaneshwar
Kolkata
Varanasi
Udaipur and Bombay
Other cities we stay for one night and spend a few hours looking around.
