Heritage walk - Irecently took the Fontainhas Heritage Walk with Soul Travelling, and it was incredible! It’s so much more than just pretty Instagram photos—the walk is packed with amazing local stories and history. Every stop was a highlight: visiting a charming old bakery for a quick snack, wine tasting at Solar Andrade, and wrapping up at a local tavern with an authentic feni cocktail. It was also a great way to meet new people. The whole experience felt peaceful and well-paced. A huge shoutout to our ambassador, Sairaj! He was incredibly warm, welcoming, and made the entire group feel right at home.

Delightful Tour with Tavanya of Soul Travelling. - Had a lovely time visiting churches and parts of old Goa including Fontainhas Heritage Walk. Our charming, helpful and knowledgeable guide had a wealth of knowledge about the churches, their history and customs and we had a great time while updating our knowledge about the history of Goa and the rule of the Portugese in Goa. Tavanya was helpful with our shopping too and we felt she was really involved in making our tour memorable. I would definitely insist on Tavanya as our Guide for my future trips.
