Experience the ultimate Indian road trip on the scenic NH66 coastal highway from Mumbai to Goa. This 2-day ride takes you through the winding Western Ghats, past the Vashishti River, and into the heart of the Konkan region. Enjoy authentic Malvani seafood, misty mountain passes, and a glorious arrival at Goa's golden beaches. While some construction delays may still be encountered, particularly around Lanja, Sangameshwar, Panvel, and Indapur, significant progress has been made with bypasses and flyovers nearing completion. The highway is also implementing a new satellite-based smart toll system in Maharashtra. The entire highway is expected to be fully operational by May 2026.
