I am looking for a best place to visit for a weekend getaway for me and my collegues through Air, in India. Any suggestions on any places, probably south india, or anywhere across india?

You can always visit hill stations, which are suitable for weekend breaks and give you total relaxation. Some of the common and popular hill stations include Masoorie, Kulu Manali amongst many others.

Ever considered Andaman Nicobar? You will see some extremely good unpoilt beaches there and the crowd that goes there is better then the lot you will find at Goa in my opinion.

Its not even that costly to get there .. You can get a flight from either Calcutta or Chennai to Port blair and then by boat to where ever you want to go.

This is not the best time to go there due to rains but otherwise its a very good holiday destination be it your honeymoon or just a yearly holiday kind of thing

Please do check if everything is ok after that Sunami struck coz I havent been there after the sunami which did cause a lot of destruction out there so it would be better to get in touch with some one who has been there recently coz those beautifull beaches I am talking about might have transformed into something else after the sunami

y not try kochi, it has beatiful backwaters and the coconut water will bring out the best in you.
the onam season starts soon, so the shoppin will be cheap too.
if you do go there dont forget to try out the payasams there.

Then you should visit Matheran about 100 km from Mumabi and 80 km from Pune.

Best thing about Matheran? No cars or vehicles of any kind allowed inside the township. All cars have to be parked at the big parking area near the (narrow guage) railway station. A NG train runs from Neral to Matheran.
