Itinerario
Mattina la nostra Guida vi verrà a prendere dal vostro hotel e procederà verso la Vecchia Goa. Costruita nel 1619 d.C., la Cattedrale di Edifice of Se è la più grande chiesa dell'Asia. Con la sua superba facciata iberica, i soffitti svettanti, la favolosa opera a mosaico, il legno intricato e le sculture dorate, la Cattedrale di Se, talvolta chiamata anche Cattedrale di Santa Caterina, è un must assoluto per qualsiasi visitatore di Goa. NOTA: NON sono ammessi pantaloncini corti e senza maniche mentre si entra nel luogo religioso in questo modo.
Questo sito ecclesiastico di 400 anni ha un ricco significato culturale e religioso, la Basilica di Bom Jesus è stata dichiarata Patrimonio dell'Umanità dall'UNESCO. Letteralmente tradotto in 'Santo Gesù', questa è l'unica chiesa nella Vecchia Goa che non è stata intonacata all'esterno. La facciata della chiesa ha il tetto triangolare che è delicatamente scolpito con le iniziali 'IHS', che è un'abbreviazione per emblema gesuita che significa 'Gesù, Salvatore degli uomini'. NOTA: NON sono ammessi pantaloncini corti e senza maniche mentre si entra nel luogo religioso in questo modo.
Visita anche la torre di Sant'Agostino, una delle preferite per tutte le riprese dei film di Bollywood.
Tempo per il pranzo schioccante, arrivo alla piantagione di spezie tropicali: ascolta gli uccelli deliziosi, ozia vicino al ruscello o semplicemente goditi una passeggiata attraverso il tratto di piantagioni di coleotteri. La piantagione di spezie tropicali ha molto da offrire, la tranquillità è la più grande di tutte. Goditi un menu vario come gamberi al curry, piatto di pollo di Goa, riso bianco e integrale, pane di Goa, frittura di pesce e anche un paio di verdure.
Dedicato al Signore Shiva, questo tempio di 400 anni ha incantato devoti e visitatori con la sua bellezza semplicistica negli ultimi 400 anni. Il tempio è adornato da un corpo d'acqua rinfrescante. Secondo alcuni, questa è una delle parti più antiche del tempio. C'è anche una torre della lampada a sette piani nel complesso del tempio. Ci sono anche alcuni santuari dedicati alle divinità della famiglia che si trovano all'interno del complesso del tempio.

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 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.
