Top Goa Outdoor Activities

"An excellent day tour. The morning was spent visiting old Goa, seeing the colourful Portuguese colonial houses, churches and temples. (Take a scarf to cover your head while in the churches and temples and knees should also be covered.) Our excellent guide, Jo was full of information about the buildings and their history. The afternoon was spent in the organic spice plantation where a buffet lunch was served. Vegetarians and vegans are catered for as well. We had a fascinating tour of all the various spices and their uses. You can also buy spices and ointments at the plantation. The spice plantation is surrounded by a lake and grounds where we were delighted to see a kingfisher."

"The tour was really good, we were lucky with the weather. The guide was fantastic showing us around Goa and the churches. The driver was excellent and friendly also."

"Lata was an excellent guide who clearly knew her history and facts. We had a very enjoyable afternoon walking through Fontainhas as she took us back in time to the Portuguese in Goa, and entertained us will short stories along the way. Definitely recommended!"

"Great and knowledgeable tour instructor from Goa. Great air conditioned minivan with little walking and amazing sightseeing."

"Goa was an amazing tour. We really enjoyed the spice village and luncheon. Also, the method used to show the Portuguese house and the lifestyle of Goa was very unique. We came away with great information and the food was terrific. This tour was the highlight of all our Indian visits."

"A great tour around the Divar island showing the history and picturesque portugeese houses in the region. Nice snack at a 200 years old Portugeese house and welcoming by the family. A great guide sharing a lot of interesting information!"

"My advice, wear plenty of sunscreen. Got a bit of sunburn. Otherwise a fantastic trip. The tour operator met us at the starting point, explained everything in detail, and then sent us on our way with a local guide. We really enjoyed the trip on the Sal. The refreshments were great as well. Highly recommend this as a way to get away from the busy beaches and streets of Goa and enjoy nature."

"This tour was a great last minute option for us as it provided for everything end to end. From the minute we left our Pune hotel to the minute we arrived back we were guided - except obviously on the airplane. The pick up in Delhi airport was waiting and Prem our driver gave us a fantastic welcome, including flower leis and snacks for the road trip to Agra including beers and water. Our tour guide Mahesh joined us in Agra and the he provided a very detailed knowledge and understanding of the Taj and its history. Starting early the next day made all the difference particularly with the crowds. He has a real passion for the city and being a local and part of the culture makes a difference. The shopping was good as well and it gives you the opportunity to experience some of the history of the arts and crafts of that era. Just be weary that if you express the least bit of interest in an item the sales men willl force it on you. Dont be afraid to force a haggle. One item went from 2400 to 1000 and you can potentially go lower buy walking away. All in all it is a very efficient, easy and safe way to get around Agra. On the way back as we wanted to visit a few places in Delhi the guide was ok for us to get lunch on the go from anywhere included in the trip so we could do that which is the part of the beauty and flexibility of the Indian people. Pick up from the hotel a bit earlier in Pune would have seen us be able to factor in a few other things into Delhi or relax a bit more when we arrived in Agra. Be prepared for a very active 48 hours but well worth the trip. Even Raj, the travel coordinator kept tabs on us the whole way via WhatsApp making sure we arrived after flights and to hotels every step of the way. He was also in constant contact with the tour guide and driver making sure everything was fine all the way to arrival back at your Pune hotel. Thanks Raj, Mahesh and Prem we had a great time and look forward to the next experience."

"We had such a wonderful time on this tour! Our driver Wayan Suyasa was absolutely awesome. He took us to the swing first so that it wouldn’t be so busy which ended up being a great idea as when we left queues were forming. The white water rafting was so much fun as well. Worth every cent. Do it!"

"Amazing, fun, and worked up a sweat! A fun few hours out on a mountain bike in small group (6 people) riding up short and steep hill to breathtaking sea views. Then loads more adventure riding along trails and side streets/villages winding down the hill. Superb, highly recommend for keen cyclists."
