Goa Darshan Tour & Travels - Tour agency in Calangute - North Goa, India

The places they showed was good. Well organized tour. Staff was supportive. But time given to see churches was not sufficient. Ganesh, Balaji and Padmavati temple can be skipped as it is a newly constructed and normal place. in place of this dona paulo and churches time can be increased.

Goa darshan was good. We had our bus starting from Panjim at 7.00am. But the pickup got delayed to 8.00 am . the bus was full though by private booking too. Its an AC bus with 28 seater, the driver was okay. There was not separate guide and all. The driver himself is a guide told when to come back from dudhsagar thats it. Then drops near the safari jeeps. They make 7 members a group for one jeep. The total price 700 per jeep.Its a 30 mins safari towards the dudhsagar falls through Mahaveer wildlife sanctuary. They give us 1 hour for trekking and for swimming, it takes 5-10 mins to reach falls by trekking. Its a pleasant way. You can enjoy by clicking pictures. They will provide us life jacket for swimming in water falls within your 1 hour you have to come back to the jeep otherwise the jeep drivers will charge extra amount. For 1 extra hour they charge 400rs. After coming back to your jeep the safari ends in the same place where you started. Then your lunch in jungle book restaurant. They got good food with goan cuisine. In Jungle book restaurant itself they take you to see the spice plantation which they have near by. They tours you to plantation and explains its benefits. Which was worth knowing. Then back to bus next towards the basilica church which we missed because the church gets closes by 5.pm so if we want to visit we have to leave from the falls earlier. Also if we would have left earlier in the morning could have covered everything on time. But could not see the both the churches. So all over the cost can be cutdown if you go on your own vehicle with your group. The goa dharshan charges 1649rs. Which is okish. Rest if they cover both the churches on time Would have been more good and worth spending. All over its a good one.

I visited Goa through Goa Darshan Tour and Travels Calangute. I booked my tour for 5th, 6th and 7th Nov. 23 for North Goa, Doodh Sagar and South Goa respectively through AC bus. They picked up us from the reference point which was about 400 metre from my hotel and after tour left us at the same point. Buses were comfortable. They covered almost all the points of tourist interest which I checked on internet and heard from otheres. Tour guide Mr. DD, Mr. Junaid and Mr. Hussain Khan had a good knowledge of the places and explained the things nicely. I strongly recommend to visit Goa through this travel agency. Taxis are not prefereble in Goa as the taxis are very costly. They charge minimum Rs. 300/- even if the distance is only 100m.

Goa Darshan trip was awesome. On time . Highly recommended this.

Goa Darshan was very helpful and booked us multiple trips, definitely recommend booking your trips with him.

I along with my family have opted for one day South Goa tour. We were given the pick up location and time of 10am but actual pick up was done by 10:30am. Then we were taken to Miramar beach and dolphin ride. Now I don't understand the logic of going on a beach and dolphin ride at 11am when there is extreme sunny day and 33 degree celsius. Later by 12:30 we were taken at Dona paula, where we had to walk for 20 mins to reach the sight in sun and walk back to the bus in similar way. Many people suffered the heat wave and were not interested in sight visit. Then we were taken to an expensive restaurant for lunch in old Goa. In later afternoon we were taken to couple of churches in Old Goa and Mangeshi Temple. I suggest to start the trip by 9 or 9:30am and visit Churches and Temples first when there is extreme heat and later plan for Beaches and boat ride. Tour guide and driver was in hurry to just complete the trip in time as they started it late and people were not abiding to the timings given for each sight visit. Anyways overall not at all satisfied, hope you guys consider my suggestions for future tours.... All the best.

This was a monsoon trip so admittedly there were some constraints but the utterly uncivil behaviour of the guide, the yelling screaming, shouting, threatening other customers were overwhelming. No forts. 2 churches, 2 temples and two bizarre cruises in panaji waters. Taking high risk stops at beaches and rivers in orange rain alert by the Goa government. We paid for an add on travel but reconsider it as we saw the windy rain and choppy waters. The guide pocketed the money even though the tickets weren't purchased. If you don't take both the add on trips , you are abandoned on the parking lots for over 2 hrs in miserable rain. Pathetic service. The only saving grace is that you will save on car rides and see atleast two good places in South Goa at a fraction of the cost. But get ready to lose an entire day .

Initial response with driver was weird. Tour owner should educate driver n should drop passenger on the agreed point. Rest travel was good travel team apart from drivers were cool.
