- Basilica of Bom Jesus - Your first destination is India’s first minor basilica. It is one of Goa’s UNESCO World Heritage sites. Located in Old Goa, this magnificent church is a must-visit on everyone’s Goa itinerary.
- Se Cathedral - Situated directly across from the Basilica of Bom Jesus, this stunning Cathedral showcases Portuguese gothic architecture. It is a well-preserved church, with captivating aesthetics. This is the largest church in Asia and its construction began in 1562, taking nearly a century to complete.
- Mangeshi Temple - A unique blend of Hindu, Christian, and Muslim architectural styles is evident here. The Shri Mangesh temple, situated in Mangeshi Village, is among the most visited and significant temples in Goa. It was originally located in Kushasthali (Cortalim), but many Hindu temples were destroyed in Goa during the Portuguese Inquisition. Consequently, worshippers moved the Shiva linga from there to its present location under the cover of darkness.
- Dona Paula Beach - Named after the legendary Portuguese figure Dona Paula, this beach is steeped in local myths and is the site of Baroness von Leistner’s 1969 “Image of India” statue. The tranquil Dona Paula Beach features water sports, souvenir stalls, upscale hotels, and eateries serving both Western and Indian cuisine.
- Miramar Beach - Situated in the capital city of Panaji, Miramar beach is a serene spot. It’s perfect for peaceful strolls and enjoying the gentle waves, as it tends to be less crowded.
- Mandovi River - Take a one-hour River Cruise on the Mandovi River. Immerse yourself in Goa’s natural splendor during the cruise. Please note that the cruise ticket is not included in the tour package and must be bought on location.
