Goa trip planner

On India's western coastline, the former Portuguese colony of Goa tells a visibly different story than the rest of India. Because of the lengthy Portuguese rule, this area remained isolated for nearly five centuries, developing its own religious, cultural, and commercial traditions. A tour of Goa reveals a relatively small state with a mixed population of Hindus, Muslims, and Roman Catholics. In this cultural melting pot, you can spend your entire Goa vacation exploring notable churches, convents, mosques, and temples. If you're looking for something different, enjoy Goa's laid-back coastal vibe and sandy beaches, ideal for watching the sun disappear into the Arabian Sea.
