Mumbai to Pune Bus Travel Guide

A Mumbai to Pune bus leaves the city in the late afternoon and evening and climbs past Lonavala on the expressway. Pune’s old peths around Swargate hold the city’s Peshwa era heart, from the Raja Dinkar Kelkar Museum and Vishrambaug Wada to Lal Mahal and the home of Jyotirao and Savitribai Phule.

Departing from Mumbai for Pune

Mumbai boarding for this route covers about twenty points along the Western Express Highway, Sion, Chembur and Navi Mumbai. The Mumbai to Pune bus runs evening departures, starting from Kamothe at around 4:50 PM and ending at Vashi close to 9:45 PM.

Local Transport to Mumbai Bus Boarding Points

Local trains, the metro, BEST buses and app cabs reach most points. Evening traffic on the Western Express Highway and Sion Panvel Highway is heavy, so leave early.

  • Western Suburbs: Borivali East and West, Kandivali East, Malad East, Goregaon East and Jogeshwari East.
  • Airport Side: Andheri East, Vile Parle East and two Santacruz East points near the highway.
  • Bandra and Sion: Bandra East Kala Nagar, Sion Everard Nagar and Priyadarshini Sion.
  • Chembur: Near Yogi Hotel, a convenient point for Chembur and the eastern suburbs.
  • Navi Mumbai: Vashi, Sanpada, Nerul, CBD Belapur, Kharghar Teen Bandar and Kamothe.

Pick a point near a station to avoid long road trips in peak hours. Keep the coach number ready, as many buses stop at the same flyovers.

Arriving in Pune

The Mumbai to Pune bus lists several Pune drops, from Talegaon on the expressway to Swargate in the old city. Swargate is the closest drop for the peths.

  • Talegaon Toll Naka: The first drop, on the expressway before Pune.
  • Wakad, Hinjawadi and Balewadi: West Pune drops near the IT parks.
  • Vishal Nagar and Chandni Chowk: Drops near Pimple Saudagar and the Kothrud side.
  • Swargate: Laxmi Narayan Chowk, near the signal, closest to the old peths.
  • Shewalewadi Bus Stand: An eastern drop near Hotel Haryali on the Solapur road.

The bus reaches Pune in the evening, so check in near Swargate or Shukrawar Peth. The peth sights are easiest to cover on foot the next morning.

Top Places to Visit in Pune

Pune’s peths grew around the Peshwa court, and their lanes still hold old wadas, temples and markets. Most sights lie within walking distance of each other.

  • Raja Dinkar Kelkar Museum: A museum of about 20,000 everyday and art objects, including the Mastani Mahal.
  • Vishrambaug Wada: A Peshwa mansion built by Bajirao II, known for its carved wooden facade.
  • Lal Mahal: A rebuilt palace on the site where young Shivaji Maharaj lived with Jijabai.
  • Mahatma Phule Wada: The home of Jyotirao and Savitribai Phule, social reformers and educators.
  • Kasba Ganpati Temple: Pune’s guardian deity, the first of the city’s five main Ganesh temples.

Things to Do in Pune After Your Bus Journey

After the Mumbai to Pune bus, an old city walk the next morning shows Pune’s history in a few streets. Autos fill the gaps between the peths.

  • Museum Visit: Kelkar’s galleries display lamps, musical instruments, betel nut cutters and armour.
  • Wada Walk: Vishrambaug’s balconies and courtyard show the style of Peshwa homes.
  • Reformers’ Home: Phule Wada has a memorial and displays on the Phules’ work for education.
  • Market Stroll: Tulshibaug’s lanes sell brass vessels, kitchenware and festival goods.
  • Temple Round: Kasba Ganpati and the nearby Tambdi Jogeshwari temple are busy in the mornings.

A Practical First Day in Pune

The bus arrives in the evening, so get off at Swargate and check in at a hotel nearby. Have dinner and rest after the drive over the ghat.

Next morning, start at Kasba Ganpati and Lal Mahal, then walk to the Raja Dinkar Kelkar Museum on Bajirao Road. It opens from 9:30 AM to 5:30 PM.

After lunch, visit Vishrambaug Wada and shop in Tulshibaug, then take an auto to Mahatma Phule Wada in Ganj Peth. End the day with snacks near Laxmi Road.

Pune Local Transport Costs and Sightseeing Budget

For one adult on the peth heritage plan, ₹950 covers the museum ticket, autos, meals and snacks. The museum fee is taken from travel listings, so every figure is a planning allowance. Hotel stays and the Mumbai ticket are not included.

ExpenseCost or planning allowance
Raja Dinkar Kelkar Museum entry₹100 per adult as a planning allowance
Lal Mahal, Phule Wada and templesNo entry ticket
Autos between the peths₹250 per person as a daily planning allowance
Breakfast, lunch and dinner₹450 per person as a daily planning allowance
Tea, snacks and water₹150 per person as a daily planning allowance
Sample day for one adult₹950, excluding shopping

Small fees may apply at Vishrambaug Wada and for cameras at the museum. Brassware and festival goods from Tulshibaug are personal purchases.

Note: All figures are planning allowances; museum fees and auto fares may change.

Famous Foods to Try in Pune

The old peths are home to Pune’s famous sweet shops and Maharashtrian eateries. Many have served the same snacks for generations.

  • Bakarwadi: Crisp spiral rolls filled with spiced coconut and sesame, a Pune classic.
  • Thalipeeth: A multigrain flatbread with onion and spices, served with white butter.
  • Kanda Pohe: Flattened rice with onion, peanuts and lemon, the city’s favourite breakfast.
  • Shira: A sweet semolina dish with ghee and dry fruits, often made as an offering.
  • Mattha: Spiced buttermilk with coriander and ginger, served with Maharashtrian meals.

Best Time to Travel from Mumbai to Pune

October to February is the best time for walking Pune’s peths, with cool mornings and dry weather. The monsoon brings beautiful ghat views but slows traffic near Lonavala.

  • October to February: Pleasant days and cool evenings for the old city walk.
  • March to May: Hot afternoons, so plan the peths for early morning.
  • June to September: Heavy rain on the ghat, with Ganeshotsav crowds in late summer.
  • Ganeshotsav: The peths fill with pandals and processions for ten days.

Safety Measures by zingbus on Mumbai to Pune Bus Journey

The Mumbai to Pune bus crosses the Sahyadri ghat on the expressway. zingbus keeps three core measures in place until the Pune drops.

  • Two-Driver Policy: zingbus uses a two-driver plan for routes longer than six hours.
  • zingbus Marshal: A marshal on board helps passengers and addresses any concern.
  • Emergency Exits: Coaches show clearly marked exits; keep them unblocked and follow the crew.

The peths have narrow lanes and heavy two-wheeler traffic, so walk carefully. Keep wallets secure in Tulshibaug and on Laxmi Road.

Plan Your Mumbai to Pune Bus Journey
