1) Ditch the Flight to Goa-\u00a0<\/strong>Take a Train or Bus<\/strong><\/h2>\n![\"New](\"https:\/\/www.trodly.com\/pictures\/upload\/image\/goa-new-year\/goa_train.jpg\")
<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Avoiding the comfort of quick travel by plane is one way to keep your pocket intact. If you\u2019re from up in the north choose a train rather than a plane, it will make a huge difference in your estimated budget.<\/p>\n
And if traveling from Mumbai travel by train or take a flight to Mumbai and from there get on a Volvo bus or a train. If you are from anywhere south like Bangalore, Chennai, or Kochi a Volvo bus is the way to go.<\/p>\n
\n- \n
\n- Flight: 13,200\/- per person<\/li>\n
- AC Train: 4,500\/- per person<\/li>\n
- Volvo: 3,200\/- per person<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
In case you\u2019re coming from down\u00a0<\/span>South<\/strong>, book seats in a Volvo and save flight charges.<\/span><\/p>\nIf none of this amuses you then a road trip to Goa it is! A road trip to Goa can easily be planned from cities like Mumbai, Mangalore, Pune, Bangalore and Hyderabad. Grab a wheel.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
2) Stay in Hostels & Apartments in Goa, not Hotels<\/strong><\/h2>\n![\"New](\"https:\/\/www.trodly.com\/pictures\/upload\/image\/goa-new-year\/goa_hostel.jpg\")
<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
An average night in a hotel can cost you more than 1500 without a doubt during the peak season but if you choose a hostel over it, then a night will come way under 500 INR. But of course, there won\u2019t be a fancy bathtub or room service.<\/p>\n
Couch surfing<\/strong><\/h3>\nCouch surfing is somewhat a new and pretty unconventional. So for your information, couch surfing is a service that connects members to a global community of travellers. Staying for free is the least you could get out of Couch surfing. It\u2019s more of an experience you could keep close to your heart. But getting a host for a first timer can be hard, so sign up now and start talking to people now!<\/p>\n
Airbnb in Goa<\/strong><\/h3>\nJust like Couch surfing using AirBnB<\/a> is another way to make an experience which you won\u2019t get during a stale hotel stay without upsetting your pocket.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
3) Buy your booze from Wine Stores, not Shacks<\/strong><\/h2>\n![\"New](\"https:\/\/www.trodly.com\/pictures\/upload\/image\/goa-new-year\/goa_party_booze.jpg\")
<\/strong><\/p>\nWe have to talk about it.<\/p>\n
Booze is one of the prime factors during a New Year eve. Some choose to step into the New Year with half their sanity. For them choose a common Wine Shops<\/a><\/strong> to buy the spirit of your choice because at that time or at any time shacks charge more than double for it. \u00a0But my advice is what\u2019s the point of all this if you are waking up next morning remembering nothing!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
4) Rent a Bike in Goa<\/strong><\/h2>\n![\"New](\"https:\/\/www.trodly.com\/pictures\/upload\/image\/goa-new-year\/goa_bike_rent.jpg\")
<\/strong><\/p>\nThe Public transport system in Goa is quite impressive there are bus services connecting even the rural parts of Goa<\/a>. The state transport service called Kadamba Transport Corporation \u00a0These buses do not stop at all stops but only main cities, for example, Mapusa<\/a> to Panaji<\/a> and Panaji to Margao<\/a>.<\/p>\nThere are also motorcycle taxis which are unique to Goa. They are called \u2018Pilots\u2019 you will travel as pillion riders on these two-wheelers, they are fair with their charge and if not bargaining is always an option.<\/p>\n
Renting out a two-wheeler is also an option. It won\u2019t cost you more than 250 INR rent for a day and another 100 on fuel.<\/p>\n
