Goa

North Goa · South Goa · Old Goa · Dudhsagar

November – February
4–6 days

Goa is India's smallest state and its most visited — a former Portuguese colony that retains a unique blend of Indian and European culture. The beaches range from the lively, bar-lined sands of Baga and Calangute in the north to the serene, palm-fringed coves of Palolem and Agonda in the south. Old Goa is a UNESCO World Heritage Site — a collection of 16th and 17th-century churches and cathedrals that rival anything in Europe. The Basilica of Bom Jesus contains the tomb of St. Francis Xavier, one of the most important Catholic relics in Asia. Inland, the Dudhsagar Waterfall — one of India's tallest — thunders through the Western Ghats, and working spice plantations offer a fragrant glimpse of Goa's agricultural heritage.
