Gamle Goa-kirker, -templer og krydderiplantage med "Goan"-frokost





Beskrivelse
Oplev det off-beat gamle Goa, dets fascinerende kirker med storslåede facader, indviklede interiører. Besøg senere krydderiplantage væk fra Goas tætpakkede strande, og nyd en læbelig Goan-frokost (gruppebasis), der kun arrangeres inde i plantagen. Besøg også et 400 år gammelt hinduistisk tempel kendt som "Mangeshi"-tempel, der minder om den tidligere hinduistiske arv fra Goa før det portugisiske kolonistyre. BEMÆRK: Turister, der ankommer med CRUISE-skibe, KAN IKKE booke denne tur, fordi havnemyndighederne har deres eget transportopsætning.

Denne 400 år gamle kirke site har fået rig kulturel og religiøs betydning, Basilica of Bom Jesus er blevet erklæret en verdensarvsliste af UNESCO. Bogstaveligt oversat til "Hellig Jesus", er dette den eneste kirke i Old Goa, der ikke er blevet plasteret på ydersiden. Kirkens facade har et trekantet tag, som er delikat udskåret med initialer 'IHS', som er en forkortelse for jesuit emblem betyder 'Jesus, menneskenes frelser'.

Den tropiske krydderiplantage har meget at byde på, og fred i sindet er den største af alle. Nyd en varieret menu som rejer karry, Goan kylling ret, hvide og brune ris, Goan brød, fiskeyngel og et par grøntsager også.
Dedikeret til Lord Shiva, har dette 400 år gamle tempel fascineret hengivne og besøgende med sin forsimplede skønhed i de sidste 400 år. Templet er prydet med en forfriskende vandmasse. Ifølge nogle er dette en af de ældste dele af templet. Der er også et syv etagers lygtetårn i tempelkomplekset.

Arranging a larger group tour was very easy when Viator option did not allow for our total group (9) nor at a time we could start (they accommodated us to start later). The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable (42 years of giving tours in Goa!) and also amusing. Opportunity for souvenirs near the Hindu temple. Fascinating assortment of Goan cultural history (Hindu, spices, and Portuguese/Catholic) in a very short time (all we had. Surely you could spend much more time). Would definitely recommend. Only drawback was one of our two drivers was…not the best. Most of us felt carsick (and are not first time visitors to India, we are used to the roads & drivers).

Had a very enjoyable tour to visit some old Goan churches, a temple and then lastly a spice tour with lunch. Our guide and driver were both lovely and very accommodating. It was very interesting to see some of the beautiful historical buildings and learn all about them.

Very helpful of him .Would recommend this tour !!

Very knowledgeable tour guide who explained everything and more around the tour itself as you’d expect but also on the drive down and back and any questions we had along the way, spice plantation was really good, food probably not as good as I was hoping (stated king prawn curry on viatour) however matter. Take some rupees with you for the temples and spice plantation as you will probably want something from the local organis shop
Dear Mr Andy It was a pleasure to serve you and your family in Goa. Many thanks for the kind words and for taking the time to post the review. We feel honoured to know that we were able to match your expectations during your tour. Regarding the mention of "King prawn" curry, please note, our description mentions "Prawn curry" only (NO King prawn mentioned). You might have read the description of some other operator. Hope to see you again. Best regards Jai Singh Discover Activities
The guide and driver were excellent catering the discussion around my interests in local culture and customs. While visiting Bom Jesus, I learned that it’s next to the archaeology museum. I asked to tour the museum, but unfortunately it was closed Fridays. I was however able to explore their outdoor collection of architectural remnants which was a treat as an anthropology student. The highlights for me were the temple and the spice plantation. They have a store at the plantation where I was able buy lots of spices and natural soaps.

Our driver and an amazing guide picked us up right on time, we visited several interesting spots and below 02 were the most memorable: The Basilica of Bom Jesus was truly a memorable experience. This historic church carries a deep sense of spirituality and architectural beauty. If you’re in Goa, this iconic site is definitely a must visit. A symbol of Goa’s colonial history and religious heritage, and offers a calm break from the beaches and parties. The scenic Spice plantation: A Wonderful 100-acre private property, we tour a small part of it with a guide that educated us about the therapeutic, cooking properties of the various herbal plants grown there. The visits were followed by a sumptuous lunch buffet and is worth it. Highly recommended for nature lovers, spice enthusiast, or someone looking for a break away from the beaches in Goa.

We booked this amazing tour since we wanted to visit Old Goa along with a fabulous spice planation visit. Goa has many faces! But Old Goa is just a stunning canvas painted with amazing architecture, colonial monuments, cobbled paths, and impressive scenery that is coastal. Tropical Spice Plantation Art is a haven for nature lovers, art enthusiasts, and those seeking a holistic experience. As you step foot into the plantation, you'll be greeted by the aromatic scents of various spices that fill the air. Explore the sprawling plantation and witness the cultivation of a wide range of spices like cardamom, pepper, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. Learn about their origin, cultivation techniques, and medicinal properties from knowledgeable guides.
