"A very enjoyable tour with a guide who is clearly passionate about his work.
The tour was varied and detailed where required, but relaxed and laid back when appropriate.
Well organised, there was history, architecture, a window into local life as well as a tasty lunch and a plantation visit.
Cooling towels and chilled water kept us refreshed."
"Mario is exceptional. His years of experience and high levels of knowledge are evident throughout the day. He left no question unanswered as he guided us expertly through a glimpse of the political, cultural and religious history of Goa. The day started at a wood fired bakery were we ate many pastries. The market was bustling , check out the produce and the art work. We got to visit historic churches and temples with detailed and interesting information along the way.
The spice plantation gave us a great insight into the cultivation, harvest , dietary and medical uses of many plants. The plantation also served us with the most delicious meal that was beyond our expectations.
Our comfort was considered throughout the day and water and cold towels were offered frequently.
We finished the day with a swim at the beach and the door to door service was great.
Communication was prompt and informative and we would not hesitate to reccomend Mario to help you enjoy a wonderful day in Goa."
"For a tour in Panjim, I wouldn’t hesitate recommending Mario. He took care in understanding our requirement (1 x carnivore + 1 x vegetarian) and redesigned his itinerary to accommodate. The food experience was outstanding as was his knowledge of Panjim and Goa that he shared. It made for a fascinating tour."
When you hit the road and land in a new city like Goa, there's an exciting way to dive into its soul: personalized local tours. Forget the typical touristy routes – these tours are like having a local friend show you around all the cool spots.
Imagine having someone who lives and breathes Goa spill its secrets. That's what local guides bring to the table. They know the hidden alleys, the best bites, and stories that never made it to the guidebooks. Whether you're into munching through food tours, wandering the city's streets, or going off the beaten path, a local guide hooks you up with a private tour that's authentically Goa.
The best part? These tours are all about you. No herding in big groups or rushing through places you're not interested in. With private tours, you're the boss. Whether it's snapping pics at iconic landmarks, diving into history, or checking out the art scene, the tour is tuned to your vibes at your tempo.
But it doesn't stop at city limits. Day trips let you escape the urban jungle and explore nearby wonders. And if you're just setting foot in Goa, kickstart tours give you a taste of everything. Think of it as a crash course in Goa awesomeness, guided by a local who knows the city like the back of their hand.

A Wonderful Day with Mario!
"We were at a resort in North Goa and were interested in seeing more of the area and learning more about Goa’s history. We were SO lucky to find Mario! What an enjoyable man to spend the day with!
His knowledge of the area, his command of all dates in the state’s history and his engaging stories brought Goa to life. Mario introduced us to some special places, including a charming sweet shop. He was also heroically patient with our shopping :) We can’t recommend Mario enough.

"I was fortunate enough to tour in and around Panaji, Goa with Mario a few weeks ago. His service is incredibly polished. He was punctual, flexible, courteous and proffered ice-cold water and towels throughout the day. However, the keys to success of the trip were Mario's deep knowledge and irrepressible PASSION for Goa's history and culture. He brought the sights to life with insights and anecdotes that you can't find in any guidebook. Even while travelling between attractions he was at pains to point out interesting sights at the roadside. I thoroughly recommend Mario to anybody travelling in Goa. "
