Hi everyone ok this trip to matheran was my first excursion planned with my college friends.
The place is awesome its so beautiful that at the end of the day i wasn't feeling like to return home again.
You'll meet many people saying that matheran can't be explored in 1 day but trust me if your going with your friends your not interested in just seeing all spots for namesake enjoy the time you spend there its serene quiet completely surrounded by trees and mountains, and yes 1 day is fairly sufficient time.
I'll be writing mainly about how to plan the trip so that your not left in a situation like we were.
The average expense for our group of 10 people was around 300 bucks.
We caught the karjat local from dadar which leaves at 7:02am so we reached neral by 8:30
from there we got a cab which took us to matheran entrance the ride took around 30mins. if your trip is a 1 day one so better opt for this but in case if your planning to stay there then the toy train is a better option.
then what be ready to walk a lot you'll come across some great views and yes the most important thing please take care of your food there are a lot of monkeys to and dogs to create menace.
there's no trekking as such but then yes by the end of the day you will be exhausted like anything.
dont make it very late to return coz we made this mistake the last taxi one can get is around 9pm
there are very few street lights and also at come places there arent so it looks exciting but then its upto you to decide.
