A trip to Old Goa

Our tour of Velha Goa was interesting and informative. Our guide Vimala, was able to answer all our questions and to explain the storied history of this unique corner of India. She is clearly passionate about Goa and has taken the effort to learn the nuances of its singular culture.

Excellent tour of old Goa

Excellent tour of old Goa. Our guide Yashasvi (Yash) was outstanding. She’s a history buff not just limited to Goa which was helpful to gain a wider perspective. She also had useful tips on areas and aspects not covered by the tour. The pace was just right and the weather was kind to us! I strongly recommend this tour for an insight into medieval Goan history and ask for Yash, of course.

Thanks to them, our Goa trip became even more memorable. I highly recommend them to anyone visiting Goa!
