Discover more about Goa's heritage
Goa’s colourful, rich and insightful past means that still today it remains one of India’s most fascinating states.
On this tour, you’ll discover Goa’s Portuguese colonial heritage by touring its many churches, museums and fascinating attractions.
The tour begins with a drive to the Menezes Braganza Pereira house, located in Chandor village, near the church square. This 350-year-old mansion is one of the most exquisite heritage homes in Goa, housing a museum of chandeliers, paintings, porcelain and period furniture.
Proceed for hi-tea in the 17th-century Palacio Do Deão, a 213-year-old Palace in Quepem, built by a Portuguese noble man who was the Dean of the Church and the founder of Quepem Town. The palace has an intriguing architectural design bending both Hindu and Portuguese styles and is surrounded by lush exotic gardens.
There’s nothing more authentic than a Goan lunch – served up at the Goa Chitra museum. You’ll then have the chance to let your food go down as you explore the exhibits and artefacts of the Portuguese colonial era before being driven back to your hotel.
