The Old Goa which consist of Old old churches and towns were exceptional! Well worth the trip! If this is what you are aiming for...then you are in the right tour! The road trip was quite long though...be told! In between sights were quite a distance as well. Overall it's a good educational trip! I would suggest it to most people.
We actually took five different tours with this company. Two in Cochin , one in Goa and two in Mumbai. The owner of the company, Lijo, was a dream to work with. He was somehow always reachable by text, phone or in person. All of our guides were knowledgeable in their area of expertise and interesting. We would unquestionably recommend all of his tours. Finally, Lijo helped us with a miraculous “save” of a bag that we left on our last tour bus that dropped us at the Taj Palace. He stayed on the case, found the bag and got it back to us.
Thanks for an amazing boat trip. The food was very homely and traditional. The backwater was amazing, people hospitality was great.
