India's smallest, with a territory of 3,702 sq km located in the Western
Ghats. Caressed by the Arabian Sea and touched by the influence and
traditions of almost five centuries of Portuguese rule, Goa holidays are
indeed a journey into a tropical oasis sprinkled with a taste of the
Mediterranean.
Goa holidays conjure up images of the past with striking remains of old
fortresses. Taking a stroll through the narrow streets of old Goa, where
you'll still find Portuguese style houses, you could almost believe you are
in the old part of Lisbon. Portugal not only influenced the architecture,
the Goan people have inherited the Portuguese love of music and renditions
of the old 'Cantades' are a regular occurrence.
Holidays to Goa are truly like stepping into paradise with golden beaches,
sumptuous cuisine and hospitable people. These are just a few reasons why
Goa holidays continue to be a firm favourite among British tourists. The
wonderful climate makes holidays to Goa a dream destination if you're in
search of an Goa all inclusive holiday, tropical holiday or a winter sun
holiday. Travel south for stretches of unspoiled sand and an escape from
large resorts. Temples, mosques and wildlife sanctuaries provide diversions
from the beach.
