Overall rating

It was a great insight into Goa and the history’s growth. Guide was amazing. Driver good. The only negativity is the company advertised one price. Then accepted the location of pick up. Money taken. Then a text saying it’s out of the pick up zone and an extra 1000. But I read a review saying the same thing prior so I can’t complain. Still. Honesty goes a long way and if it accepts the pick up zone then there’s plenty time to reply if pick up zone isn’t ok before money taken. Only negativity otherwise a great day learning Goa. 😂

It was a wonderful experience from the beginning to the end. Our guide “Joe” is an expert and a very pleasant guy with a very good energy to spend the day with. We had a very interesting talk during the day about Goan history and culture 😊 All in all a five star experience ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

It's a tour designed for Indian people, hence the price. The guide also spoke English so he was able to explain everything to the four of us who didn't speak Hindi. Basically, it's a tour where you make several stops and get on and off.

I had a great time with my guide and my driver. I got to see many places, learn a lot about Goa, it's culture and history. everything was well planned and I felt safe during the whole trip. thanks for everything!

we had a great, lical tour guide who took us to many nice placed around Goa.
