Divar - Yet another amazing trail! The walk around Divar with Amreen and Yuvraj was wonderful. The stories and sights were mesmerising. The delicious Goan food cooked and served by Antonio and Arlinda at the end was delicious.
Thank you for yet another informative tour. Goa is even more beautiful seen through the eyes of the make it happen crew.

Gem of an experience in Goa - Had a wonderful time with Pawan on the Divar Island tour. He was highly knowledgeable and answered all our questions (about Divar Island and broader questions about Goa life and history) insightfully. We had a wonderful lunch as well :) would recommend as a must do in Goa.

wonderful time. great food, music, and people - I had an amazing time on the tour hearing about the history of the island and the people who live there. Walking was very light as it was mostly a driving tour with stops in different places. The storyteller, Sejal, was very knowledgeable, answered all my questions, and kept great conversation. The food on the tour was delicious as was the music that accompanied it. It was also a pleasure meeting the people who shared their house for that. Highly recommend if you want to see a very unique and peaceful part of Goa.

A HATKE Goan experience - A different experience. Sejal is a young enthusiastic storyteller and surely loves Goa. She knows what she is talking about which is really refreshing. The island itself with its churches , chapels, temples and old Portuguese colourful homes is cute and quaint. Lunch at “aunty Agnes” was homemade , simple and quite a nice spread. Sejal even organised a singer who sang a couple of Konkani/ Goan songs to our delight. A cake was cut to celebrate my birthday ( and also my husband’s)!
I would recommend this to anyone who wants a “hatke” experience .
