Iglesias, templos y plantaciones de especias de Old Goa con almuerzo "Goan"





Descripción
Descubra la antigua Goa fuera de lo común, sus fascinantes iglesias con grandes fachadas e interiores intrincados. Más tarde, visite la plantación de especias lejos de las abarrotadas playas de Goa y saboree un delicioso almuerzo en Goa (en grupo) organizado únicamente dentro de la plantación. Visite también un templo hindú de 400 años de antigüedad conocido como templo "Mangeshi", que recuerda la antigua herencia hindú de Goa antes del dominio colonial portugués. NOTA: Los turistas que llegan en CRUCEROS NO PUEDEN reservar este tour, porque las autoridades del puerto marítimo tienen su propia configuración de transporte.

Itinerario
Por la mañana nuestro guía lo recogerá de su hotel y se dirigirá hacia Old Goa. Construida en 1619 d.C., el Edificio de la Catedral de Se es la iglesia más grande de Asia. Con su soberbia fachada ibérica, techos elevados, fabulosos trabajos en mosaico, madera intrincada y tallas doradas, la catedral de Se, también llamada a veces catedral de Santa Catalina es una visita obligada para cualquier visitante en Goa. NOTA : NO se permiten pantalones cortos y sin mangas mientras se va dentro del lugar religioso como este.
Este sitio de la Iglesia de 400 años de antigüedad tiene un rico significado cultural y religioso, la Basílica de Bom Jesús ha sido declarada Patrimonio de la Humanidad por la UNESCO. Traducido literalmente a 'Jesús Santo', esta es la única iglesia en el Viejo Goa que no está enlucida en el exterior. La fachada de la iglesia tiene techo triangular que está delicadamente tallado con las iniciales 'IHS', que es una abreviatura de emblema jesuita que significa 'Jesús, Salvador de los hombres'. NOTA : NO se permiten pantalones cortos y sin mangas mientras se va dentro del lugar religioso como este.
Visite también la torre de San Agustín, una de las favoritas para todas las tomas de películas de Bollywood.
Es hora de relamerse los labios. Almuerzo. Llegada a la plantación de especias tropicales: escuche a los encantadores pájaros, descanse junto al arroyo o simplemente disfrute de un paseo por el tramo de plantaciones de nueces de escarabajo. La plantación de especias tropicales tiene mucho que ofrecer, siendo la tranquilidad lo mejor de todo. Disfrute de un menú variado como gambas al curry, plato de pollo de Goa, arroz blanco e integral, pan de Goa, pescado frito y un par de verduras también.
Dedicado al Señor Shiva, este templo de 400 años ha cautivado a devotos y visitantes con su belleza simple durante los últimos 400 años. El templo está adornado con un cuerpo de agua refrescante. Según algunos, esta es una de las partes más antiguas del templo. También hay una torre de lámparas de siete pisos en el complejo del templo. También hay algunos santuarios dedicados a las deidades familiares que se encuentran dentro del complejo del templo.

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.

I did this tour today with 4 friends and we thoroughly enjoyed it .Our guide was very knowledgeable and informative about the churches and the local history of Goa .He enthusiastically told us about the history of the Portuguese being here and the impact it had on the local culture.Our guide even went out of his way to stop off at a phone shop for me on our way back to the hotel so that I could purchase a new phone charger! 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.
