Getting Around Goa: Everything You Need to Know

India Hub Writer

Goa has plenty of public and private options for travel, depending on your budget and preferences. Public transport options include an extensive network of privately-owned buses linking major towns to villages, which also run between villages. Hired transport options include pre-booked taxis, auto rickshaws, taxi bikes or ‘pilots’, cars, scootys and bicycle rentals, as well as privately booked chauffeur cars.

To/from goa’s dabolim international airport.

It’s not well known, but there is a local bus that runs from Dabolim International Airport to the nearby city of Vasco da Gama (approximately 23 minutes), from where you can find connecting buses to Margao (for beaches in South Goa) and Panjim (for beaches in North Goa). The bus stop, or more accurately, the place in which you can flag down the bus, is a spot on the main highway to the right side of the exit doors. When you step out of the airport, head right and keep walking downwards towards the highway. When the public road begins, immediately turn left and you will see a few public buses parked, all going to Vasco. Sometimes, there are locals already there waiting, in which case you can just join them. The ticket price to Vasco da Gama is INR8-10.

Budget options (bus and bicycle rental)

Bus cost: approximately INR10 for two to three km Bicycle rental: approximately INR150-200 per day

Travelling by local bus in Goa is without a doubt the cheapest option. Buses connecting to and from the more urban areas of Goa are plentiful, straightforward to use and the majority of the time they run as per their schedule. And once you know how to use them, they are also the funnest option as you get to have a good old chat with the locals. Buses that run between local villages, however, are less frequent and don’t always run on schedule.

Renting a bicycle in Goa is usually very easy during high season (December-March) and most of the popular beaches will have plenty of options. Bicycles can be rented on a per-day or per-week basis. If you’re staying longer (a month or more), it’s worth asking for discounted rates.

Tips for bus travel

• The destination, as well as major stop off points, are written on a board in English on the front of every bus. If you’re unsure of where a bus is going, ask a fellow passenger or the conductor. People are generally always happy to help. • You can jump on a bus at designated bus stops or bus depots in main towns. They can also be flagged down pretty much anywhere so don’t worry too much about getting to a bus stop in time. • Buses usually have two doors, front and back, and can be boarded and exited via either one. Once you’re on, grab a seat (if you’re lucky) and the driver will come around to collect fares. Note: Try and have the correct change or at least small bills as some drivers will refuse to take big bills. • Kadamba refers to the local main bus stand (Panjim Kadamba, Margao Kadamba etc).

Mid-range (taxi, auto rickshaw, car and scooty rental)

Taxi cost: Officially INR8 per km but expect to be charged more Auto rickshaw cost: Officially INR7 per km but expect to be charged more Car/scooty rental cost: INR1,000-1,500 / INR350-500 per day (non-geared) and INR400-1,000 per day (geared)

If you are looking for comfort and practicality and have that extra cash to pay, these are your best options. However, it should be known that travel by private taxi or auto rickshaw is the least cost-effective way to travel Goa as there is no metre system, meaning drivers can charge what they like – and they do. Officially, the fixed price allotted by Goa’s government for rickshaws is INR7 per km and for cabs, INR8 per km, however, this is most often not followed and not enforced. Both taxis and auto rickshaws can be pre-booked, alternatively, you can flag down an auto rickshaw when needed.

A scooty (local word for scooter) is a very popular option in Goa and the most preferred mode of transport, not just for visitors but for Goans themselves. Scootys can be rented from all major towns, popular beaches and even within some local villages. You can expect to pay a daily rental cost of anywhere between INR350-500, depending on the time of hire. Discounts can usually be worked out for longer term rentals and are always worth asking about. There are geared bikes as well ranging from INR400-1,000 per day. You’ll also need to rent a helmet as it’s mandatory in Goa and you could end up with a fine for not having one if caught by the local police.

Tips for taxi travel

• Agree on a fixed price with the driver before you get in to avoid conflict over prices once you reach your destination. You should already have a price agreed for pre-booked taxis, so this applies more for taxis/auto rickshaws that you have flagged down on the street. • Having access to a GPS on your mobile phone is desirable so that you can track your journey yourself. Many drivers can try to take longer routes to demand more money. Also, drivers may say they know where the location of the place that you want to reach is, but don’t actually and you can end up going round in circles if neither of you knows. • Befriending a local who can give you contact details for trusted taxi and auto rickshaw drivers will help save you money and hopefully, save you from getting ripped off.

Luxury (private chauffeur)

Private chauffeur cost: This depends on where the booking is made. For reliable and trustful services, book at either the airport or through your accommodation.

If money is not an issue or if you want the complete freedom to travel as and when you like, then renting a private car with a driver is a good option. The going rate in Goa right now is anywhere between INR3,000-5,000 per day including your own driver, a private car and fuel. Most drivers are hired on a per day basis so unless you are planning to spend a full day sightseeing, then you’re better off using a pre-paid taxi service to drop you off where you need to go.

Places of Interest (Brief Description) :

Baga Beach is known as the Queen of Goan beaches and is famous for its water sports, banana boat ride and dolphin trips. The Baga creek connects to Arpora. This beach is one of the North beaches of what is known as “The belt”. The Belt connects Baga to Calangute, Candolim and Sinquerim. The four most famous beaches of Goa.

Calangute Beach is the largest beach on the belt. This beach is also famous for its water sports but the waters are too dangerous to swim in. This area is one of the most crowded places from November to Mid May.

Anjuna Beach famous for its Wednesday Flea Market, is hugely popular among Foreign Tourist. Try buying various items sold by Foreigners and Indians for cheap prices using your bargaining skills.

Sinquerim Beach is the last beach on the belt and this is where Fort Aguada begins. This is one of the least crowded beaches on the Northern belt. There are water sports activities and a food shacks around the place.

Fort Aguada proudly perched on the Sinquerim Hill was built in 1612 by the Portuguese to ward off the Dutch and Maratha invaders. The fort used to have a spring where ships would stop to get water hence the name “Aguada” which means “watery” in Portuguese. There is a lighthouse in the fort that was used to guide ships however there is a modern lighthouse just beside the fort.

River Cruise Point at the end of Panjim is a place where tourists can buy tickets for the sunset cruises and other evening cruises and enjoy the sights of Panjim on one Side of the Mandovi River, and Betim, and Reis Magos on the other side.

Casino Point is now where Captain of Ports used to be. This is where people can embark on evening of indulgence on the floating casinos.

Panjim Municipal Market has been a major landmark since time immemorial. It used to be a small structure which has been modernised a few years ago. This is a one stop shopping place where you can find everything from home appliances, fruits, vegetables, fish, meat, spices, clothes and much more.

Bhagwan Mahavir Bal Vihar Garden better known as Campal Park was established during the Portuguese times. It used to be a picnic spot for families and school children.

Kala Academy is the music school of Goa and was established in 1970. The building you see now was inaugurated in the early 1980s.

Goa Science Center and Planetarium in Miramar is worth checking out especially for children. The Science Park is 4 acres and has sculptures of Prehistoric animals, large exhibits and play things to build a child’s interest in the subject.

Miramar Beach formerly known as Gaspar Dias Beach named after the landlord of the area, is the Beach capital of Central Goa and no holiday is complete without a visit here. Of course, while you are spending some time here you can walk on the beach, sample some of the street food and if you are lucky enough you can catch a breathtaking sunset.

Dona Paula is the end of Central Panjim and it is famous for the jetty. The place was named after the Governor’s wife’s lady in waiting Dona Paula Amaral Antonio de Souto Maior. She was known for her charity and kindness. She married into the Souto Maior Family, landlords of the entire Caranzalem area.

Basilica of Bom Jesus was completed in the year 1605 and consecrated by Archbishop Dom Aleixo de Menezes. The mortal remains of St. Francis Xavier are kept in this church and it is a place of pilgrim even to this day.

Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception Church (Nossa Senhora da Immaculada Conceição) better known as Panjim Church was first built in 1541 and was replaced with a larger Church in 1609. The bell was installed in 1871 after St. Augustine’s tower collapsed.

The Patriarchal Palace or Archbishop’s Palace is situated on the hill of Altinho and overlooks Panjim city. The Diocese of Goa was established in 1553. This building was completed in 1894.

Goa Local Bus – The Best Way to Commute Long & Convenient

Going around on the Goa local Bus was one of my preferred choices while exploring. I am sure that local bus transport would be your go-to priority while exploring any other city?

Furthermore, they would agree with me regarding the stringent on their budget travelers.

Like any other city, Goa’s local bus service is notably excellent. So you can travel affordably & can stay longer in Goa.

The Goa local bus service will be affordable and is the best way to commute to Goa on a low budget.

You must also be aware that Goa offers a low-cost rental two-wheeler. So you will get a two-wheeler on rent in Goa for around Rs. 300-Rs. 400 (4 USD – 6 USD) for a day. But the rental cost also varies from season to season in Goa.

You can cover the areas of Goa on the two-wheeler. It will save plenty of time.

But the question here is that if you’re a long-time traveler like a  solo for a month in Goa , then saving each day must be your priority.

We will be talking about the S hort period travelers   v/s  L onger period travelers  in Goa.

Table of Contents

1. Goa for a Short Period

If you’re traveling to Goa for a short period, say three days in Goa . There’s no doubt that if you’re the first time Goa , you want to cover most of your journey in that deadline period.

Considering the situation, renting a two-wheeler would be the best option because it will save your time & you’ll cover the most on your short trip to Goa.

2. Goa for a Long Period

If you’re traveling to Goa for a Longer period, suppose 15 days or maybe for a month. Then slow travel should be your motto & exploring on Goa local bus would be an excellent decision.

Traveling around on a Goa local bus will cut short your daily Goa expenses while living there for a prolonged period. But, relying on the local bus services would not control your budget.

It would also help find other loopholes to minimize your goa trip budget .

Going to Goa for a longer time is strict with your budget. Therefore, the local bus transport is the best way to commute to Goa for long-term & budget travelers.

That also indicates the article’s title revolves around a long period of travelers.

Goa Local Bus Service

There are multiple buses from Goa that operate on different routes daily.

The local transport in Goa is well connected. To all of its areas around. You already know that finding a local bus service would not be an issue globally.

The main concerns that local bus transport demands are patience, adjustment & flexibility. In return, it will allow you to spend & save wisely. These are my thoughts on what I believe is necessary to travel longer anywhere.

Let’s hop on the points –

I. Local Buses for Goa International Airport

I would mention Mandrem in Goa here because I have covered that area and will explain my views.

If you live somewhere around Mandrem side & if you have to go to Goa International Airport . Then, this would be the journey route using the Goa local bus service –

From Mandrem ➡️ Mapusa ➡️ Panjim➡️ Chicalim ➡️ Margao ➡️ Goa International Airport

Mandrem to Goa International Airport

• The first Mandrem to Mapusa bus leaves at around 6:30 a.m, which will charge you Rs.20 per person. The bus comes at an interval of almost 40-45mins.
• After reaching the Mapusa bus stand, you can take a Mapusa to Panjim bus & which will be going to charge you Rs.20 per person. Mapusa has an interchangeable bus stand, so the bus would already be present or arrive in a few minutes at routine intervals.
• Take a bus from Panjim to Chicalim & it will charge you Rs.30 per person. That is because Panjim has an interchangeable bus stand.
• After reaching Chicalim, you have to stand on the other side to take a Vasco to the Margao bus. It will be going to charge you Rs.10 per person.
• You can tell the conductor to drop you on the front road of the Goa International Airport.
• The time taken could be around 2-3hrs & the cost will be less than Rs.100.

Note – 1

All the currency used above is in Indian rupees, which mainly converts to less than < 1 USD, apart from Rs.100, which converts to more than > 1 USD.

The bus would be the cheapest way to reach Goa International Airport.

Note – 2

Suppose you stay at some other place like Anjuna, Vagator, etc. Then, you have to travel to Mapusa. Afterward, you can either follow the same route as discussed above or the way best suited to you.

To explore around for a prolonged period on the Goa local bus is majorly done by foreign tourists. Because the other country travelers spent a lot of time in Goa, it would be very feasible for foreign tourists & others in a long time.

II. Local Buses from Goa Madgaon Railway Station

You can take a Goa local bus service from Goa Madgaon Railway Station to anywhere around Goa.

First, you have to come out of the railway station & need to cross the road.

Here are two options –

1. Directly reach Margao Bus Stand by Walking

Suppose you want to test your feet straightaway in the city where you can rent a means outside the railway station. Then you’re on the way to exploring the unseen Goa as well.

The nearest bus station to Madgaon railway station is the Margao bus stand 4-5km away. So you can either walk for around 45-50min to reach the bus stand.

2. Reach Margao Bus Stand by Bus

You can take a bus outside the Madgaon railway station if you are tired. However, you have to show some patience before the bus’s arrival. The bus will cost you around Rs.15 & drop you at the Margao bus stand.

Now, you have reached the Margao bus stand. Your destination is somewhere around Margao. You can directly go to your desired location.

III. Margao Bus Stand to Panjim Bus Stand

Public transport in Goa is the most convenient means to travel & explore around. You can spot the buses on the moving roads. The vibrant multicolored buses are easy to get the eyes captivated.

But if you’re looking to go to a fancied far remote location in Goa only. Then, you will need to interchange the buses.

If your destination is around Panjim or Mapusa, you must take a bus. The buses run at frequent intervals from Margao to the Panjim bus stand. The cost will be around Rs.45 per person.

The distance between the Margao bus stand & the Panjim bus stand is 32km approx via a faster route. Therefore, the time needed will be around an hour.

Upon reaching the Panjim Bus stand, you can go directly there if your location is around Panjim .

IV. Panjim Bus Stand to Mapusa Bus Stand

If your destination is around Mapusa, you must take a bus from Panjim Bus Stand. The bus will cost you around Rs. 20 per person. The Panjim and Mapusa bus stand is around 27km approx via a faster route. The time taken will be 45-55 minutes approx.

Upon reaching the Mapusa Bus stand, you can directly go there if your location is around Mapusa .

The buses from the Mapusa bus stand connect you with the most loved beaches in Goa.

V. Mapusa Bus stand to Vagator Beach Bus

There is a direct bus from Mapusa to Vagator & the bus will drop you at the Vagator bus stand. It is a few minutes of walk away from the Vagator beach. The Mapusa to Vagator bus will cost around Rs. 40 per person. The distance between the Mapusa to Vagator is around 10km. The time taken would be 30 minutes.

Moreover, Goa buses are multicolored, like blue , pink , green , etc. Just for the sake of knowledge I had expressed. The sitting structure inside the Goa local bus would be the same, but the overall experience will be quite different.

Note – Every bus has a scheduled time of leaving from Mapusa. The last bus time departs from the Mapusa bus stand is 8 p.m.

Vagator Beach to Anjuna Beach

There’s no way to walk along the seashore because of the big rocks which block the way. But you can take the road route. The distance between both of the beaches is around 5km. So you can either walk while navigating on google maps or take a bus.

VI. Mapusa Bus Stand to Anjuna Beach by Bus

You can take a bus from the Mapusa bus stand to Anjuna beach & the distance between them is around 10km approx. It will charge you around Rs. 20 per person.

Likewise, you can take a bus from Anjuna to the Mapusa bus stand while returning.

VII. Mapusa Bus Stand to Mandrem Beach by Bus

You can take a bus from the Mapusa bus stand to Mandrem Beach & the distance between them is 20km approx. The bus will charge you around Rs.20 per person and drop you within a few moments of walking distance from Mandrem beach.

Mandrem to Arambol Beach

If you love long walks & I am sure that you do. Then you can walk along the beach. The distance between Mandrem beach to Arambol beach is 3km approx. So it would roughly take you around 40mins to cover.

If you don’t want to bother your legs much, you go on the roadside to take a bus to Arambol. The bus would charge around Rs.10 – Rs.15.

Mandrem to Morjim Beach

When you’re on the Mandrem beach facing the seaside & the right side goes to Arambol beach, and the left side goes to Morjim beach. The distance between Mandrem beach to Morjim beach is 5.6km approx. So it will probably be a long walk for more than an hour to reach if you wish to do so.

If you’re willing to take a bus, that would be a convenient option. However, it would cost you around somewhere Rs.20 approx.

VIII. Anjuna to Arambol Bus

Likewise, I stated that you have to interchange your buses to travel from Anjuna to Arambol.

Firstly, you must take a bus from Anjuna to Mapusa bus stand and afterward from Mapusa to Arambol Bus.

IX. Mapusa Bus Stand to Baga Beach by Bus

You can take a bus which will charge you Rs.20 per person from Mapusa Bus stand to Baga Beach. The distance between them is 10km.

Note – The way you’re traveling forward is the same way you can travel back to your origin location.

How are the Facilities in Goa Local Buses

That’s for sure; you don’t know the routes upon your first instance in Goa.

The Goa local bus becomes crowded many times & it is advisable for the women to either take a seat or take a stand at the corner to avoid confusion. Apart from this if you’re new to Goa especially, foreign people and didn’t know the places. Then you can directly ask the conductor of the bus. The conductor will guide you to your destination.

There are very few buses that operate at night. So if you’re traveling around Goa on the bus, you should ask the driver or conductor about the last bus time to your desired destination. That will help you to plan your way back accordingly.

You can still reach your desired destination by other means, but it will cost you too much. This article is all about traveling long and spending wisely. So not missing any buses should be on the top of your priority lists.

I stayed and Volunteered in Goa for 30 days. So therefore , traveling by Goa local buses was like a routine.

Bus Facility in Goa

The bus facility in Goa is somehow equal to other states in India. There will be a bus driver and one conductor who will give the tickets.

There are separate seats for the ladies, and above them will be written as “ladies’ seats.”

By chance, suppose another gender person sits on the lady’s seat. Then, the women have the right to ask the person to vacate the chair.

It’s dependent upon the person to stand or can take their seat. If there are no seats on the local buses, you’ll require to stand in that case.

Some of the other must-have facilities in Goa local buses include – 

• First Aid Box
• Helpline Numbers

The earlier specified thing must be in all the state buses in an emergency.

There’s no firm rule for traveling around on Goa local bus. It is the most convenient and affordable way to explore the town. If you consider my thoughts then,

Goa local Bus service+ Foot = Best way to explore the entire region
