Going Solo in Goa!
by Perviz Surti Tour OperatorA year without a holiday or vacation seems just
incomplete. Travel is one of the most relaxing forms of getting-away, most
people do to unwind after a few hectic months spent at work. However, for many,
travel is equivalent to having fun with close friends and family away from
home; very few consider traveling alone and enjoy a solitary travel experience.
Hence, when someone says they are traveling alone, often get mixed reactions!
Goa is a traveler’s paradise with its pristine beaches, verdant cocooned hills,
exotic locales and more. A traveller is spoilt for choice with boutique hotels
and budget getaways, party hot-spots to serene wanderings. To the solo
traveler, Goa is heaven! Goa is
hosting more and more solo travelers in recent times. The solitary traveler in
Goa can indulge in the many activities this tiny green land has to offer,
moreover, the solo traveller gets to decide all that they want to do and enjoy
their own company!
A good Goan retreat can begin with sightseeing
and doing a Goa tour by the day, wandering about Old Goa and visiting the churches in the city.
Famous for its beaches, a Goan escapade is incomplete without spending some
time at the beaches of your choice - pristine and calm in the south to all
night party spots and happening ones in the north.
For the nature enthusiasts, Goa offers
unparalleled experiences with its mountains, green forests, waterfalls and
spice plantations. A solo spice tour to learn about the various spice
plantations and buying some for back home, is a great way to plan a half day’s
tour. One can also plan a trip to the Salim Ali, Bondla and Cotigao Wildlife sanctuaries to explore
the flora and fauna this region has to offer.
Whats
is a vacation without indulging in local cuisine! Solo travelers in Goa can have
a ball, as many restaurants and shacks here, offer one-person portions so as to
be able to devour many delicacies one can. Goan cuisine, abundant with fresh seafood, local produce and
rich use of coconut keeps one sated, as one should be, when on a holiday!
Solo
traveling is also associated with fears of being alone on a trip. Although Goa
is considered safe for solo travelers, one should ensure to keep belongings
safe, carry electronic money and beware of people around. Travelers must stick
to itineraries and not venture into the wild with impulse trips so as to avoid
disappointment. All in all, planning a safe trip filled with wonderful memories
is the best give you can give yourself on a solitary trip!
