Begin your trip by exploring the cultural and religious history of Goa. Visit the Basilica of Bom Jesus, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and see the preserved remains of St. Francis Xavier. Then, head to the Se Cathedral, one of the largest churches in Asia and admire its Portuguese-Gothic architecture. Complete your tour by visiting the beautiful Shri Manguesh Temple, dedicated to Lord Shiva.
Take a stroll in the charming streets of Panjim, known for its Portuguese colonial architecture and vibrant atmosphere. Don't miss the chance to visit the Immaculate Conception Church, one of the oldest churches in Goa. In the evening, head to the Miramar Beach for a picturesque sunset.
Head to Calangute, known for its lively beaches and water sports. Try out para-sailing, banana boat rides, and jet-skiing. Once you've had your fill of fun in the water, relax with a refreshing drink and some seafood at one of the nearby beach shacks.
Take a scenic drive through the lush countryside of Goa to the Dudhsagar Falls, one of the tallest waterfalls in India. After a refreshing dip in the cool waters, trek to the nearby wildlife sanctuary where you can catch sight of some exotic wildlife.
If you have more time, consider a visit to the Salim Ali Bird Sanctuary, or a sunset boat ride on the Mandovi River. If you have less time, skip the Water Sports in Calangute. Instead, spend time exploring the Latin Quarter of Panjim or visit the famous Anjuna Flea Market on Day 3.
