Discover the unseen side of Goa on an immersive tour of Chorao Island, the largest island in the state, nestled along the serene Mandovi River. Almost like a road trip to Goa’s countryside, this excursion is filled with adventure, scenic beauty and cultural charm. Explore lush landscapes, hidden historical landmarks and a local plantation and end the journey with an authentic Goan meal hosted by a local family. Uncover the island’s lesser-known culinary heritage and experience Goa in its raw, local, and unforgettable form.
Step onto Chorao Island, where folklore floats with the tides and every trail tells a tale. This offbeat escape is Goa’s best-kept secret—where nature, history, and village life collide in a perfect medley.
This isn’t your regular sightseeing tour. It’s a soulful island crawl – complete with a boat ride through mangroves, a legendary temple visit, breakfast or snacks at local generational plantation, a heritage trek to forgotten ruins, and a cheeky Feni cocktail-making session at a village tavern.
Note - Backwater boating is at an additional price of INR. 1,500 per person at the island as an add on experience.
Start your journey at Ribandar Ferry Terminal, followed by a scenic ferry ride to Chorao Island, Goa’s largest and most serene island. Begin with a quick orientation before visiting St. Bartholomew’s Church and the peaceful Shri Devaki Krishna Temple. Continue to a traditional Kulaghar (plantation) for a guided walk, Explore the Ruins of the Chorao Seminary, a historic protected site, and conclude with a Feni cocktail at a rustic local tavern before returning to the ferry.
