Fontainhas walking tour during the rainy season

Although Goa had entered the rainy season, fortunately, it did not rain during the morning tour. The guide was very friendly and treated me with great kindness. He was also extremely knowledgeable and answered all my questions thoroughly. It was a truly enjoyable and valuable experience.

Calvin made us experience the best of Fontainhas!

The fontainhas heritage walk and the food crawl that we did with Make it happen was the highlight of my trip. An experience i highly recommend to all serious tourist who want to learn a lit bit about the history of goa while being respectful to the residents there. Learnt many interesting facts about the heritage and food that was bought with the Portuguese and remained in goa as part of their culture. A big shout out to our storyteller Calvin who was very well versed with all the facts and had very accurate knowledge. He made the experience worth remembering.
