The journey

Discover the contrasting sides of Goa across five nights. Start with a leisurely sunset cruise on the Mandovi River before visiting the coastal bastions and lively shorelines of Fort Aguada, Anjuna, and Baga. The trip delivers action on the water with a dedicated morning of sports at Calangute Beach and an island boat trip for snorkelling and dolphin spotting.

Journey inland toward the Western Ghats to witness the dramatic four-tiered cascade of Dudhsagar Falls and explore the lush Bhagwan Mahavir Wildlife Sanctuary. With free afternoons to browse markets or relax in beachside cafés, this itinerary offers an energetic yet balanced coastal holiday.
