Great experience! - This experience was very nice! We learnt to make authentic Goan savoury Patoli the Goan way among other things. The place is nice and the experience is very comfortable led by Rajat.

Excellent Culinary experience of Charao Island - The entire experience of the trail was indeed beautiful.
The cooking and learning about the local and traditional way of grinding the masala and cooking a local Goa Veg Meal.
Royston the ambassador to our trip was indeed excellent and made the experience more comfortable and explaining each aspect.
The knowledge and the experience to our children who have never experience it was a lovely feeling.
Thank you Royston.
Thank you Soul Travelling.

Great adventure - We started by driving our car onto the ferry, which was a slightly terrifying yet unique experience! We loved the Kulaghar tour and found the cooking activities very fun and relaxing. Lunch was delicious. Joshua and Eben were thorough gentlemen and the host chef kaki and family were very sweet too. Glad I found Soul Travelling through trip advisor!

Charao island trail experience - Our Chorao Island trail with Soul Traveling was such a joy! My husband Mukesh, our daughter Mishka, and I had the best time. The Goan food? Wow, every bite was delicious and full of flavor!
At Spice Garden, Rajat kept us glued to his stories. Mishka asked a brilliant question that totally impressed him! He shared this wild tale about Kirtimukha, the demon who ate himself because Shiva told him to—what a crazy story!
We also stopped by a beautiful church, but the real giggles came with the Spice Fennel cocktail. Mishka couldn’t stop laughing at how it was served, and we had so much fun sipping it!
And just when we thought the day couldn’t get better, we ended with a dreamy boat ride through the peaceful mangroves. It was the perfect ending to an unforgettable day!
Highly recommend this tour—it’s packed with food, fun, and fabulous memories!

Natural trip to chorao Iceland - It was a great experience. We see Goa from another perspective. The whole trip is so well organised and well managed. Everything is just perfect. Our guide Mr koonan is very sweet person. Throughout the trip he is tell us so many stories and give information regarding birds. His knowledge is very good and he is so supportive. It was a memorable trip for me

The real Goa experience - The chorao experience was exceptional. We were 9 of us . The highlights were the boat ride among the mangroves on the mandovi river…the feni cocktail experience in a quant Goan tavern…but the winner was the superb authentic Goan lunch at home of a local resident…rate it higher than any of the local Goan restaurants which you see on insta. Our host from soul travelling …Koonan …was extremely knowledgeable and conducted the tour efficiently. All in all a great way of experiencing the real Goa and recommend everyone to take this experience…away from the usual beach/club/party scene

Wholesome - It was an enriching experience. We got to see the Goan way of life and the measures taken to preserve their culture. Roy was our ambassador. He took great care of us and explained everything we saw in detail, from architecture to the local cuisine. Highly recommended.
