Fireflies Festival Midnight Bike Ride

There is perhaps no better way to enjoy the beauty of the various famous tourist hot spots of Mumbai, than opting for a midnight bike ride. While the ride itself proves extremely refreshing and relaxing at any other time of the year, it takes on a special twit and appeal during the pre-monsoon period. During this period the riders can opt for a biking route that does not take them across the one usually followed on such outings. The reason for altering the route is to provide them with an opportunity to witness an amazing aspect of nature that will surely leave them mesmerized.

The alternate route is where the participants can enjoy the breathtaking fireflies festival midnight bike ride Mumbai. Rather than riding the roads and boulevards fronting the famous monuments and structures of Mumbai city, the riders move out into the isolated countryside roads just on the outskirts of the city. It is here that they can witness the beauty of thousands of sparkling fireflies emitting blue-green lights converging on trees to attract their mates. With so many of these illuminated insects descending at a single place, the affect created is extremely dazzling and brilliant.

Since this phenomenon occurs only for a limited time period during the pre-monsoon season, there is a huge rush of riders booking these tours. It not only introduces them to the picturesque sites that surround the metro city of Mumbai but also offer a real treat for them to cherish for the rest f their life. Most importantly its makes them aware of the countless wonders of nature that still have the power to astound and bewitch human kind.
