Top Notch - We had a wonderful afternoon with Pritam - heard the beautiful history of my own home town Goa. And exchanged so many nuances of history country wide. Pritam is sweet, helpful and very cheerful. The food experience is power packed and felt like Sundays when dadi used to cook chonak and fish curry at home - a special thank you for that. We loved singing to the tunes of Antonio uncle and are going back with beautiful memories. Next time Chorao with you guys. !!! Lots of love to Pritam.

The unseen Goa with Make it Happen - Without any doubt, this was one of the most memorable experiences from my trip to Goa. The Divar Island tour with our storyteller Pavan took me away to a whole another world hidden from the city of Goa. Learnt so much about Goan people, history and the most importantly got to try some Goan delicacies. I loved how we got to explore different parts of the island with multiple stops at truly amazing places filled with stories and tales from the past. I would highly recommend this tour as it is an experience you wouldn't want to miss out.

Great experience for your next Goa travel - If you want to have an unique experience in Goa, this is the place to be. Goa is more than its beaches and beers and Make it Happen does a beautiful job at capturing the true goan culture and showcase this through their specially curated trails. Pritam, our story teller also did a great job in explain in Divar Island's rich history. The trail ended with high tea and special musical performance which was the perfect ending to an already beautiful day ️

Other side to the usual Goa - Amazing experience. Pritam was our story teller and he has an amazing knowledge about Goa's history and culture. Reached the island via a ferry which carried our car too. The place looks so calm and serene, a perfect retirement place. Pritam shared a lot of stories about the various churches / temples located in Diwar island and about the people there. The cute music session and the tasty pavzeens served was a perfect end to the interesting experience. I would advise everyone who want to explore the other side of Goa other than beaches to experience this for sure

A window into a surreal, serene space - The spots and places chosen by MakeItHappen were a great mix of everything that gave us a complete experience of the island. That said, the stunning views came to life because of our guide, Pritam Biswas's enthusiastic and down-to-earth story telling. He was also attuned to, and accomdative of our need to spend more time in some spaces which added to our overall experience.

It was not a tour, it was an offbeat experience. - The trip was amazing. Our storyteller was very enthusiastic and was always ready to explain whatever questions we had. It was a rare offbeat trip with good local food and hospitality

Unique experience in Goa - We had the best time visiting Diwar island with our story teller Rutwik. Such an unexplored place with rich history and culture about Goa that you wouldn’t otherwise know about. The trail planned by Make it happen was so unique, with unique additions and the tour was not rushed which was the best part. We really got a chance to immerse ourselves in the stories of the place and experience the place that it made the whole trip that much more rewarding. A must visit if you like doing off best things, like history and learning about different cultures.

Great Experience - We took Divar Island trail trip on 1st Oct and this was definitely one of the best experiences we had on our Goa trip. Hritvik is an amazing guide with extremely good knowledge and friendly nature. We had lunch in a local household and our host was extremely courteous and food was delicious. We also had a brief music session which was a good addition to the trip by MIT. Thanks Hritvik for making it a perfect trip.
