Begin with an engaging walk around an outdoor collection of artifacts and monuments chronicling the last 200 years in the region. Admire pieces of indigenous origin and examples of colonial architecture as you piece together the eclectic jigsaw of the area's history. Continue to 2 of the state’s most famous temples—Shanta Durga and Ramnathi, both dedicated to Hindu deities—and observe their beautiful and colorful architectural style.

Be greeted at a nearby spice plantation with a refreshing coconut water and experience an Aarti, a spiritual candle-lit ceremony, before enjoying an authentic Goan lunch served on a banana leaf. Following your meal, stroll through the estate with an Ayurvedic expert in Hindu alternative medicine who enlightens you on the array of herbs, spices, and plants grown on the land.
