Chorao Unplugged – A Soulful Island Getaway

Location Goa, India
$32.00
This is an experience gift voucher. The recipient will book the experience after they redeem the gift voucher.

Overview

Step onto Chorao Island, where folklore floats with the tides and every trail tells a tale. This offbeat escape is Goa’s best-kept secret—where nature, history, and village life collide in a perfect medley.

This isn’t your regular sightseeing tour. It’s a soulful island crawl – complete with a boat ride through mangroves, a legendary temple visit, breakfast or snacks at local generational plantation, a heritage trek to forgotten ruins, and a cheeky Feni cocktail-making session at a village tavern.

Note - Backwater boating is at an additional price of INR. 1,500 per person at the island as an add on experience.

  • Chorao Island
    A scenic ferry ride across the river Mandovi to reach the Chorao Island. Effortlessly ride through the lush green fields and peaceful, unseen streets of the island.
  • Discover an ancient church that has an interesting story behind the oyster shell windows. Unwind at an open field overlooking the city of Panaji and refresh yourself with a picture stop and panoramic view of the island.
  • The guide will show you around the Sluice gate (Maanos) and explain its importance to the local fishermen and farmers. Explore the ancient temple built-in 1934 as you travel along the countryside lined with churches and picturesque Indo-Portuguese homes.
  • Hidden amidst the lush greens of Chorao Island lies Tato Kulagar – a charming, family-run plantation that’s more than just a place – it’s a slice of soulful Goan life. Run by warm and welcoming locals, this serene kulagar (a traditional Goan farm) invites you to slow down, breathe in the scent of fresh spice leaves, and soak in the true essence of Goa – far from its party reputation.
  • Set sail on a tranquil backwater ride around the lush islands of Goa, weaving through mangrove-lined creeks near the iconic Dr. Salim Ali Bird Sanctuary. Glide silently through the calm waters as you spot migratory birds, elegant egrets, vibrant kingfishers, and maybe even a shy crocodile basking along the banks. This serene experience is a paradise for bird lovers and nature seekers, offering a raw and peaceful side of Goa that most travelers miss. Note - Backwater boating is an add on experience with additional charges of INR. 1.500 per person.
  • Ready for a little hike? We trek up a hill to the beautiful ruins of a 17th-century Catholic seminary echoing with silence – it's a moment of awe and timeless stories.
  • We wrap up with a dash of fun – head to a rustic Goan tavern where you’ll learn to mix your very own Feni cocktail. Sip, savour, and raise a toast to the noblemen of Chorao!
