Pick Pune if you're based in Pune, Pimpri-Chinchwad, Hinjewadi, Wakad, Baner or Kothrud. It's cheaper, the drive is shorter, and you sleep an hour or two later.
Pick Mumbai if you're based in Mumbai, Thane, Kalyan or Navi Mumbai. Yes, it's a longer day, but the transport component alone (₹445 extra) is far less than what you'd spend organising a return cab from Mumbai to Pimpri privately.
We confirm exact Mumbai pickup points after booking, based on where the group is coming from. Standard boarding points are along the eastern/western express highways and the Mumbai-Pune expressway approach.
