It was such an interesting experience. The tour guide knows what she is speaking about and very patient with all the questions. I would definitely recommend this tour.

Great history & stories! Cant be told better than a Goan who has lived here. Fantastic Story telling!

Old Goa

We had the best time. Our guide Joshua engaged the group and taught us about the Portuguese influence in Goa. The highlight was visiting the inside of a 200 year old home and learning about how people lived. We’d book another tour with this business in a heartbeat.

Super tour!

Our tour guide Adolfina from Soul travelling was warm, friendly and engaging. My boyfriend and I throughout the tour discovered the history of the area, local food and lifestyle. We enjoyed being able to try a few sweet treats and to be able to have a peek inside a Goan home. It was a well thought out tour and I will be passing it on as a recommendation to my friends. :)

Amazing heritage walk

Adolphina has been such a lovely guide. She has explained the history of the Latin Quarter in so much detail and I feel like I have learnt so much. The bakery has been such a memorable experience and it feels like we have been transported to Portugal!

Response from Host, Aug 2024

We're thrilled to hear such positive feedback about your experience! Adolfina's in-depth knowledge and engaging storytelling truly brought the Latin Quarter to life. It's wonderful to know that you enjoyed the tour so much and learned about the history of the area. We hope to welcome you back for another adventure soon.
