Trip to Pune

It was 22nd-Oct-2010, we boarded our train from Bangalore at 1 PM and reached Pune next morning 9 AM. We searched for a hotel and checked in one of the costliest hotel we ever stayed and it was a business hotel near to railway station. After freshened up, I inquired about Pune Darshan bus service. We went for lunch and went to Moledina Stand at the Pune Station and booked our seat for Rs 140 each for Sunday. The contact information for the service is Phone No: 020-32930008, 24440417 (ext. 255). Bus leave for Pune Darshan at 09.00 A.M. and return back by 05.00 P.M everyday.
