Road Trip to Goa

Visited Goa on road last week. Road condition on NH4 is excellent. Road from Hubli to Panaji via Alnavar is bad. We took this route in onward journey. While returning, we took Panaji-Belgaum-Hubli-Bangalore route. The road between Panaji and Belgaum is very good and scenic too. Total highway toll would cost around Rs. 1,500 for a round trip if you are travelling in your own car. Total distance from Bangalore is 750 Kms. A stopover in Hubli is recommended. From Bangalore, it would take about 6 hours to reach Hubli without any breaks. From Hubli, it would take maximum of 5 hours to reach Panaji via Belgaum. Traffic between Bangalore and Tumkur is heavy. Once you cross Tumkur, road is all yours with minimum traffic and you can easily drive at 110 Kms/hr.
