How to reach Palolem & Patnem by Bus

You want to travel to or from South Goa by bus and can’t find the bus timings between Margao and Palolem – Patnem – Chaudi – Mopa anywhere? Many tourists want to travel from Margao (also written Madgaon / Margaon), Goa’s main train station to Palolem or Patnem Beach (South-Goa) by bus.

At Margao or Canacona bus stand you can request the times from the counter. But in Palolem or Patnem you won’t find any timings. Because the bus timings can be found on the buses only. And that will only show the schedule of that specific bus.

As I’m living in Palolem since long time, I started noting the timings painted on the buses.

Calculate about 90 minutes for the drive (depending on rush hours) from Margao to Palolem. Please note that time doesn’t mean much in India. Also, the bus might break on the road, and you will have to wait for the next bus (happened to me more then once!) or there might be an accident on the narrow curvy road.

On some rides, you might need to change the bus in Canacona (Chaudi). So if you need to catch a train or flight, calculate unexpected events in your timing.

Advice: Don’t let the Rikshaw drivers in Margao fool you if you arrive by train! If you travel with luggage, ask them to drop you at KTC bus stand which is little bit more far from Margao train station.

The benefit is, that the bus is parking there before departure. You can put your luggage in the drivers cabin and get a seat before the bus will be crowded with people. Fruits, snacks, nuts and soft drinks are sold at the KTC bus stand at daytime.

The train station is not connected to the bus stand. If you have light luggage, you could walk down to the road and turn right towards the bus stand. With heavier luggage, i would recommend you to take a rickshaw to Palolem.

Bus schedule from Canacona (Chaudi) Bus Stand direct to Dabolim Airport (south Goa/GOI)

Departure Canacona
There are 4 buses going directly from Chaudi to the Dabolim Airport: 06.30 / 08.50 / 13.30 / 16:15

The ride will take about 90 minutes or more, depending on traffic. You will be dropped at the street in front of the airport. There won’t be any Trolleys until you reach the airport entrance. Cost about. 80 INR (2019).

Otherwise, take a bus from Palolem to Margao KTC first and inside the bus stand go to the Express/Fast Bus Counter and get a ticket from the counter. That bus will pass the Goa International Airport. You will be dropped at the side of the street in a very short walking distance to the airport. The buses depart very frequently from Madgaon as they usually depart when all seats are taken and don’t take any additional passengers on their journey.

That’s why you can only use this option going to the airport, but not in the opposite direction. If you take a local bus from Dabolim airport to Margao, you will take about 45 minutes to reach just Margao.

Bus timings from Madgaon Bus Stand direct to Mopa Airport (north Goa/GOX)

Bus timings from Canacona (Chaudi) Bus Stand to Agonda

Departure Canacona
07.10 / 09.00 / 16.10 / 17.40 / 18.00

→ The buses are passing Agonda but not going inside of Agonda Village.


Bus Ticket Prices and Price List Palolem – Madgaon

As a tourist, the chance of getting cheated on bus rides all over India is very big. Once I travelled in Kerala and asked the (Indian) guy next to me, how much he paid for he ticket. It was half of my price! He was very surprised and asked me why I had to pay more, and I just pointed at my white skin…

In many buses you won’t find the price list, or they will tell you it’s an old list. They lie to you with a big smile! The locals pay 10 Rupee from Palolem to Chaudi market, so don’t pay more than this (01/2019).

On many buses all over India, you will get a bus ticket. But on the bus between Margao and Palolem you won’t. The best way to pay the conductor is if you have the exact amount of change. It will save you the hassle. Many times they won’t have any change, and you will get your change after other travelers have paid with smaller notes. Don’t worry, they usually won’t forget you. They lie about the prices, but they will usually give you the correct change, at least when you are leaving the bus.

This list was valid until 03/2017, after Corona the price was almost doubled:
