Palitana Getting there & around

Getting there & away

STC buses go to/from Bhavnagar (Rs 17, 1½ hours, hourly) and regularly to/from Ahmedabad (Rs 85, five hours).

Regular buses go to Talaja (Rs 15, one hour), where you can nab a bus to Una or Diu (six hours); it’s a trip from hell, along bumpy roads in dilapidated old rattletraps. There’s a daily bus at 5am to Una (Rs 65).

At the time of research, the train from Bhavnagar was undergoing conversion to broad gauge.
