We had no idea what to expect on our first overnight local bus ride in India, but it turned out to be quite an adventure! We have been on lots of bus rides around the world, many of them on sleeper busses, but the bus we took from Mumbai to Goa was different to anything we have experienced before! We are always nervous for overnight bus rides because you really never know what you're going to get, and, because this is our first time in India, we really didn't know what to expect!
We had never been on a local bus in India, let alone a sleeper bus! One thing we were really worried about was getting car sick (Nicole gets motion sick very easily) and sure enough, there were some rough times while we traveled from Mumbai to Goa. We had a lot of fun learning about local bus culture in India during our bus journey because we were the only foreigners on the overnight bus! There were lots of local Indian families on the bus with us and seeing the kids run around and be excited for the journey was so sweet. All us adults seemed to be dreading the journey a bit, but the kids we excited to be having an adventure and their happiness was infectious!
You may be wondering why we didn't take the train from Mumbai to Goa, and that is because we waited too long to book the train tickets and there were none left! We were pretty nervous about taking the bus from Mumbai to Goa because we had heard that bus rides in India are dangerous, and that the drivers sometimes go really fast and don't get enough rest, but thankfully we made it to Goa without any issues. From our experience, bus rides in India are quite safe.
If you are wondering what a local bus ride in India is like, this video is perfect for you! We share our experience as foreigners taking a local sleeper but in India for the first time, and chat through all our thoughts and the things we notice along the way. We hope you enjoy!
