Highlights

Soak in the rich heritage of a neighborhood described by historian William Dalrymple as a ‘small chunk of Portugal washed up on the shores of the Indian Ocean’, and interact with locals who strive to keep centuries of culture alive to this day.


Discover the untold history of the city of Panjim at Tobacco Square, and hear intriguing tales of the neighborhood's former colonial Portuguese residents.


Be transported to a bygone era as we explore painstakingly preserved heritage buildings that have survived the onslaught of development in the 21st century.


The quaint streets are lined with traditional Portuguese style homes in a palette of striking bright colors, making this every photographer’s paradise.


Visit Panjim’s oldest bakery and have a taste of their traditional Goan treats with a refreshing beverage (subject to the bakery’s operational days & timings).


Meet with a renowned local Goan musician and enjoy a live performance of his distinctive blend of Konkani and Latin styles.
