Reiseverlauf
Goa der Ahnen. Das von den Einheimischen als Big Foot Museum bezeichnete Kulturzentrum im Dorf Loutolim soll die Kultur und die Traditionen der Region bewahren und den portugiesischen Einflüssen huldigen. Bereisen Sie das Dorf mit Ihrem fachkundigen Führer und erhalten Sie Einblicke in uralte Traditionen wie das Mitbringen von Feni - einem einheimischen Mondschein aus Cashewnüssen oder Kokosnüssen.
Schauen Sie sich das 250 Jahre alte portugiesische Herrenhaus Casa Araujo an und erkunden Sie die großzügigen Zimmer, zu denen ein Speisesaal und eine Kapelle gehören. Eine beeindruckende Tür führt zu einer hoch aufragenden Treppe, die dieses historische Bauwerk wirklich atemberaubend macht.
Shantadurga-Tempel. Dieser beeindruckende Komplex wurde 1738 n. Chr. Erbaut und ist von leuchtend grünen Blättern umgeben. Ihr Reiseleiter erklärt Ihnen mehr über die indisch-portugiesische Architektur, wenn Sie sich hineinwagen. Brillante Glasfenster und eine goldene Sänfte, die als Palkhi bekannt ist, schmücken dieses religiöse Zentrum.
400 Jahre alter Mangueshi-Tempel. Der zu Ehren der Göttin Shiva erbaute Tempel und seine legendären Säulen spielen eine wesentliche Rolle in der Gemeinde.
Fahren Sie schließlich in klimatisiertem Komfort zu einem nahe gelegenen Gewürzdorf, wo Sie von einem Biologen begrüßt werden, der Ihnen die Vegetation auf der Plantage erklärt. Erfahren Sie mehr über medizinische Zwecke für Kräuter und probieren Sie die Küche, die diese geschmackvollen Gewürze während eines Mittagsbuffets mit authentischer indischer Küche verwendet. Am Ende Ihrer privaten Kulturreise kehren Sie für den Abend in Ihr Hotel in Goa zurück.

Our guide tried so hard (with words) to make this a great experience, but it really wasn't. I think a private tour should be exceptional, but this one was a rip-off. Two of us paid $296 to visit two places with a total admission charge of less than $4 per person, two temples that were free, and a spice plantation that rolls tourists through it like an assembly line. Casa Araujo Alvares was interesting with its loud pre-recorded blasts of information and women ushers who hustled us through the building. Big Foot was less of a museum and more like a wanna-be Disney attraction with brightly painted plaster statues and blaring music. The exotic birds on display (real ones) were the best part of Big Foot. We visited two Hindu temples where we were told to enter on our own without a guide. Perhaps because the Hindu priests glower at foreign tourists? We obeyed all the rules for visitors, and a priest chased after us, yelling, as we left. I think he wanted us to come back and make a donation.... The most beautiful sight on the tour was the pontoon bridge leading over the lake on our way to the spice plantation. I learned a lot about spices from the plantation guide, but I didn't buy any spices, since they didn't sell the ground cinnamon I wanted, the reason cited by the salesperson being that it has a short shelf life (?) of only 6 months. (So how old was the stuff they were selling?) The dining area there is a large open shed with a tin roof, dirt floor and wooden picnic tables. The meal was not to our liking since my husband has gastric issues with really hot spices, and I'm allergic to coconut. Everything contained coconut. It was served mess hall style out of a variety of kitchen pots. Luckily we brought some snacks of our own. The car we drove in had air conditioning, but the seat belts didn't work. We asked if there were any bottles of water in the car, and they were in the trunk (boot). If the tour had been a lot less expensive, we wouldn't have minded so much, but it definitely wasn't worth the inflated price we paid. Maybe Viator and Trip Advisor should check into this. Warning: it looks like all tours in Goa end at the spice plantation, even if you've already been there. Bon Appetit!
