Old Goa Heritage Walk With Ferry Ride

Description

Different from the blue seas and white shores, Old Goa appears like a different world altogether. This part of the town feels like a small Goa within Goa. The world here seems to be deeply etched in history and its culture and traditions feel so remote to the fun vibes of the brand Goa. 

Nonetheless, old Goa throws at you some of the most fascinating places and this part of the town is the host to a series of legendary monuments that are all part of UNESCO approved heritage sites. The heritage walk will take you to some of the grandest churches in Goa. As you will walk through the streets of the city, you will be submerged into the deep history of the place. The culture of this place is so rich and colourful that you will fall in love with this other side of Goa. You will be transported to the colonial era Goa under the Portuguese. All the significant religious churches of Goa narrate wonderful stories. The Portuguese influence and Catholicism plays a big part in Goan culture. Our helpful guides will entertain and enlighten you with fascinating tales behind each church. 

The heritage walk tour will be started from the iconic Basilica of Bom Jesus. The Basilica hosts the remains of St. Francis Xavier. From there on we will move on to explore equally magnificent places like the Chapel of St. Catherine which is five centuries old, Church of St. Francis of Assisi, another old testament to the significance of Goa to the early religious explorers, Viceroy's Arch, which was built to commemorate Vasco da Gama, St. Cajetan's Church (also known as Church of Divine Providence), Se Cathedral, and many more. To make the walk more memorable, the tour will also consist of a ferry ride to an island.
