What you'll see, in order

Miramar Beach
A relaxing visit to one of Goa’s most popular coastal spots, with sweeping Arabian Sea views. Optionally add a dolphin-watching trip, or a peaceful backwater boat ride (ticket charges extra).
Dona Paula Jetty
One of Goa’s most iconic viewpoints, famous for breathtaking views of the Arabian Sea, Mormugao Harbour and the meeting of two rivers — plus sea breezes, great photos and local legends.
St. Augustine Tower
The striking ruins of a 1602 church, its 46-metre tower still standing after the vault collapsed in 1842. A hauntingly beautiful heritage site once featured in classic Bollywood films.
Basilica of Bom Jesus
A UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Goa’s oldest churches, holding the sacred relics of St Francis Xavier in an ornate silver casket. A masterpiece of Baroque architecture.
Se Cathedral
One of the largest churches in Asia, dedicated to Saint Catherine. Admire its Tuscan exterior, Corinthian interiors and the famous “Golden Bell” — among the finest in the world.
Mangueshi Temple
An elegant, beautifully designed temple in Ponda with a striking seven-storey lamp tower (deepstambha) and a tranquil sacred water tank — a serene glimpse into Goa’s Hindu heritage.
Tirupati Balaji Temple
A peaceful temple set amid verdant lawns, dedicated to Lord Venkateshwara, Lord Ganesha and Goddess Padmavati. Blessed by the Kanchi Kamakoti Peetam and known for its calm, spiritual atmosphere.
Sundown Party Boat
Optional (ticket extra). End the day with a sundown party on the River Mandovi featuring live music and traditional Goan and Portuguese dance — a festive, scenic finale to your South Goa tour.
