Unveiling the Treasures of Old Goa and Divar Island: A Journey Through Time and Nature

Welcome to a journey that promises to take you through the sights, locations and experiences that await you on this extraordinary adventure.

Viceroy's Arch: A Historical Voyage
Our voyage begins at the Viceroy's Arch, a monumental gateway that stands as a silent sentinel to Goa's rich history. Built in the 16th century, this arch once welcomed the Viceroys of Portugal to the bustling port of Old Goa, then known as the “Rome of the East.” As you pass through this arch, you step back in time, surrounded by the echoes of centuries past.

St. Cajetan's Church: A Sanctuary of Marvels
Our next stop is St. Cajetan's Church, a majestic structure that blends spiritual significance with architectural grandeur. Built in the 17th century, this church is a testament to the Baroque style of architecture, with its intricate carvings and ornate decorations. Step inside and marvel at the beauty of its altars, adorned with statues and paintings that tell stories of faith and devotion.

Ferry Ride to Divar Island: A Serene Journey
After exploring the historical wonders of Old Goa, we embark on a ferry ride across the Mandovi River to Divar Island. As you glide across the tranquil waters, you can feel the stress of modern life melting away, replaced by a sense of calm and tranquillity. The river breeze gently caresses your face as you take in the scenic beauty that surrounds you.

Cruising Through the Backwaters: A Nature Expedition
Our journey concludes with a cruise through the backwaters of Divar Island, where nature reveals its hidden treasures. As we glide through the narrow channels, surrounded by lush mangroves and towering palm trees, we encounter three hidden islands that are home to a variety of flora and fauna. Keep your eyes peeled, and you might even spot a crocodile basking in the sun!

As our journey comes to an end, we hope that you have enjoyed this immersive experience through the history and nature of Goa. From the grandeur of Old Goa to the serenity of Divar Island, this journey has been a testament to the beauty and diversity of this enchanting land.

We invite you to carry these memories with you and to return to Goa whenever you seek a moment of peace and wonder in the midst of nature's embrace.
