So this video is for those who are coming to Goa for the first time and for those who have already come to Goa. Because there are many new places in this city and this video is for everyone. So let's go and explore Goa.
• 00:30 - 01:00 There are 2 airports in Goa and if you are coming from North India then coming by flight is the best option. Because from Delhi you can get a one-way flight for Rs 4,000 to 5,000. And if you want to come by train then there are four major railway stations like Madgaon, Vasco de Gama, Karmali and Thivim But all these are far away from main area of Goa. So what should be the right location of the hotel in Goa we will know in the video.
• 01:00 - 01:30 I am going to an untouched place in Goa which is Querim beach and it is said that it is the last part of North Goa. The place where I am stopped now, I have been on this route many times before. But this is the beauty of the monsoon which forced me to stay here. If you look behind, this is St. Anthony Church and you will find it on the road and this view around it is very beautiful.
• 01:30 - 02:00 And I have come here many times but I have never stopped because you see this beauty only in the monsoon, lakes here are full of water. So this is a beautiful place. Let's go ahead and see what is special in Querim beach. Goa is divided into two parts from the point of view of visiting, first is North Goa and second is South Goa. In which the most crowd comes in North Goa but I apart from these beaches, I will take you some untouched places and beaches of Goa.
• 02:00 - 02:30 The stay I have booked in Goa is near Candolim beach and here is the room. And here is the bedroom, if you want to stay you can stay near Candolim, Calangute or Baga beach. You can start your day in Goa from 9 am to 10 am. I reach Goa by flight and for any destination I use the Wego app to travel.

Wego is very handy for international flight and hotel bookings because it compare 100s of flight and hotel booking websites and shows cheapest fare On Wego app you can book apart from MMT, Easemytrip, Cleartrip You can book flight tickets from flight website like Indigo, SpiceJet and can search flight price and you can book directly from Wego.

Download the new version app of Wego from the link in the description box and make your travel easy. The distance from Candolim to the last beach of North Goa, Querim beach is 40 km. And the roads are very green on which driving is really fun. And you will see many temples built in style of Goa.
• 03:30 - 04:00 After 2 hours of driving I have reached the last beach of North Goa, Querim beach. You can see this neat and clean beach, a different offbeat place. Everyone goes to Calangute and Baga beach but if you want to experience something new offbeat then come here. And after coming here if you see behind me, it is the last point of Goa
• 04:00 - 04:30 after this there is Maharastra border. So you come to the border and you can enjoy the sea of Goa and Maharashtra. I have come to the other side of Querim beach because the rocks you see behind me, there is a cave here. It is closed due to the rain but it opens in November. And you can go to the cave, means you can explore the cave in Goa.
• 04:30 - 05:00 So this is a new thing for you, I have bring it here. So if you come in November or after that, then do go to this place. Due to the rain, the water comes up a lot, so the cave is closed. There are also water sports options in Goa and here you can do activities like snorkeling, scuba, jet ski, banana boat ride and parasailing. For this, there is a day trip of Grand Island of Goa.
• 05:00 - 05:30 And you have to reach Coco Jetty at around 7-8 am. Where you get some snacks and then through a boat you are taken to ocean. Where all the activities take place. This whole day trip costs you around Rs 2,000-2,500 in which activites, snacks and lunch is included. But it is closed during monsoon. There is a pattern to roam in Goa, First I will tell you where I am
• 05:30 - 06:00 This is Calangute beach, you can see people's hustle and bustle, chairs are there this is Calangute beach, ahead of this is Baga beach. You can go by walking and you can go by road if you want. So it is not very crowded here right now as evening falls people start coming here. Because these chairs get occupied, people have dinner and drink here. Now I will tell you the pattern of exploring Goa. Generally, there is mostly summer season here, let me tell you the best time to visit here
• 06:00 - 06:30 You can come here between September to March, so during this time there is summer and after this there is more heat. So this is the best time, In between, it is monsoon, in which I have come now. So you can explore all day in this season. But the best time I told you, at that time you should cover some places here till 12 pm
• 06:30 - 07:00 some places like, you can go to Aguada fort, Reis Magos Fort. And you can cover some places in panjim like churches, so the pattern can be like this. Then you should rest 2-4 hours in the afternoon, After 4 o'clock, you can go to Calangute Baga or any beach. And then the nightlife here which is the life of Goa. If you want, you can go to the Casino, sit on the beach, spent time, do dance n party
• 07:00 - 07:30 something like this happens in Goa. So this can be the pattern to roam here, in the afternoon there will be heat, you will get upset. If you take a package, you will get AC car. If you are roaming around in the AC bus, it will be a little easier. So if you want to take a package, you can book it through Fluto Holidays I will give you the contact details. You can come with the package if there are family or friends so it will be very comfortable for you. Rest is the beach here, you can enjoy it, It is fun to sit here.
• 07:30 - 08:00 But in the evening, if you will sit here at 2-3 in the afternoon, don't do that. For those who are coming for the first time and especially if you are couple or family then package can be a better option. Which costs equal to the customised trip. We will discuss the cost of package and the customised trip with the itinerary. But if you have come to Goa before then you can should book hotel at Arambol or Ashwem Beach.
• 08:00 - 08:30 So that you can get new and unique experience where the rooms are good, cheap and a little far from the crowd. If you don't like the crowd, you can stay in South Goa. But the night life of here is not like North Goa. So now I have come to the Arambol beach and it is known for foreigner beach
• 08:30 - 09:00 because a lot of foreigner comes here. It had now become a little crowded place, earlier when I came here there used be less crowd here. Because less people know about this but now it had come in trend. Right next to this, is Ashwem beach and ahead of this is last beach, Querim beach. So do come here you will enjoy and you will get combination of both crowd & little crowd. But the biggest problem of Goa is that the airport and railway station
• 09:00 - 09:30 are quite far from the main hotel area. Due to which you have to pay around Rs 1500-2000 for a taxi from one side to reach the hotel. But the solution to this is a bus which you can get for Rs 200 from both the airports. And from Madgaon railway station, you can get a bus to Panji and Calangute. Ola and Uber facility is not available in Goa.
• 09:30 - 10:00 It is raining in Goa and now I am hiring this scooty and if you see, there are many and I am taking this yellow or green one whichever I like. And you can hire the scooty from anywhere I am not giving you the contact number. And I have got it for Rs 350, you should have the DL you can easily roam with this.
• 10:00 - 10:30 But there is a safety concern if you have any doubts about the scooty and there are many places far away then I will not prefer the scooty because I have heard about many accidents and people face problems. so it is better for them to take the package and explore Goa by car. If you want to hire car on rent so in Goa you will get options of that too. And according to Rs 800- 1,000 per day you will get a car on rent.
• 10:30 - 11:00 For which you should have a driving license and Aadhar card. Goa's evening is the most happening and you can say that the real colors of Goa is seen between 5 PM and 12 AM. And for those who come to Goa for the first time the ideal place is Baga beach or Calangute beach. And on both the beaches, you get the most crowd.
• 11:00 - 11:30 And if you are fond of club then on baga beach there are Tito's and Mambo are major clubs. And where entry is free for girls but for boys you have to between Rs 1000-2000. Althrough on the beach clubs you don't have to pay entry fees and you can enjoy here for free. And you can sit with friends on the beach and enjoy the food. Goa is known for beaches and casino and for the cafes with beach view here.
• 11:30 - 12:00 Right now I am at the Ashvem beach and this is the Kolesco - Lounge & Bar cafe I am sitting at. And there is a bar here and you can have a drink here. I ordered this Oreo shake fo RS 200 it is little bit costly but you come for enjoyment then a little bit will be spent. Goa's capital is Panji and there is a lot to see in Panji. The distance from the main Calangute is only 15 km.
• 12:00 - 12:30 And right here, on the banks of the Mandovi river, is the Reis Magos Fort, where very few people go. And its beauty is very different from the other forts in Goa. And if you have been to Goa many times before, then do visit here this time. There are many other forts in Goa, including the most popular one, the Aguada Fort.
• 12:30 - 13:00 For sunset, you can go to the Chapora Fort. In Panji, there is a dolphin trip for about Rs. 300-400 for 2 hours. In which, there is a little guided tour on the boat, they show you the dolphins, and then there is a dance with music. So, this is a very worthwhile trip. Goa is a place where you will get to see a lot of churches. Right now, the place where I am standing, very few tourists come here.
• 13:00 - 13:30 And this is the Reis Magos Church it also has a fort if you go ahead, you can enter there and you can see a very awesome view of Mandovi river amd Panji in front from there. This lies in the Panji area. You can search on Google Maps and easily reach here. Apart from this, there are many other churches here. Immaculate Conception Church, which is in the main Panji and many movies are shot there.
• 13:30 - 14:00 And along with this, Basilica of Bom Jesus. I have told you about the popular names. Apart from this, when you go on roads in Goa, you will see many more random places like this. And you will enjoy by stopping there. I mean, you can click photos there. The white circle will attract you. There is a blue borderline on it, it is a pattern here. And it will attract you. You should go there and get some photos clicked. Basilica of Bom Jesus is also in Panji. And you will also get to see the old mummy here.
• 14:00 - 14:30 And in Panji, in the evening, you can go to the beautiful Dona Paula. Which is a unique beautiful place in Goa. You have seen 'Singham' movie, right? Ajay devgan who lifts that pillar in one shot that is the scene of here. I have told you about this in many of my previous videos of Goa. But this time, I am telling you because, I have come to Goa for the first time in 2019 since then I am coming to Dona Paula Every time, it was under construction here. And for the first time, finally, I think, when Singham lifted that pillar,
• 14:30 - 15:00 after that, it is in under construction and now, it is done. And after a lot of development, it looks like this and you can go up. We will go there and see how it looks. But it is a very beautiful place. And in the evening, I will especially recommend you to come here and spend time here. And it will be fun here. Dona Paula was the wife of the landlord of here. In 1682, after her death, this place was named Dona Paula.
• 15:00 - 15:30 Many people come to drink in Goa because the beer and wine here is very cheap. You can see the shop behind me. I am taking you to an authorized shop here. And here, you will also know that the cheap wine you get from here, you can carry it home. But how? let's know it. So, let's know what rates you get here in Goa. How much this costs?
• 15:30 - 16:00 This is for Rs 90, strong can. Tuborg is for Rs 85 a can. Small one is for 60. So, here, like I have gone to some shops, the prices are more. This is our local shop. We don't do such things like this here. We sell on the MRP. You can take Liquor only in flight from Goa. And for this, some shops are authorized which give you with a proper bill. But still, in some states, some brands don't allow it.
• 16:00 - 16:30 Which you can check on the bottle itself. By the way, you can get many premium bottles, foreign brands and Indian brands here. And you can get some liquors up to Rs 50,000 here. And the local drink of Goa is Feni. You get all these bottles by packing them properly and you can carry 6 bottles of 750 ml in your check-in luggage.
• 16:30 - 17:00 Although the cashew of Goa is also very famous. And you can see a lot of its shops here which you can take as gifts. In Goa, you will get a lot of pure veg restaurants here. And let me give you an idea of the rate. What I have ordered here is in front of you dal, rice etc normal food. But all this will seem costly to you here. It won't seem too much. You have come to Goa, then you have to spend a little. So here, dal fry costs Rs 170, by the way, you can also get jain food here.
• 17:00 - 17:30 And it is of RS 220 and right now I am at Candolim area. When you come from Calangute to the Candolim area, you will get a lot of pure veg restaurants here. So I have given you an idea. That this much is your expense. Cumin rice is of Rs 130, Potato cumin is of Rs 200. You will get this whole. Rest, you will get the food here in the north Indian taste. Another part of the nightlife of Goa is the casino here which you get in Panji.
• 17:30 - 18:00 And it is not on land, but in a big ship. For every casino, you have to pay an entry fee which is from Rs 1500 -8,000-10,000. In which unlimited drinks and food are included. Although I went here in Deltin Jaqk and Deltin Royale. This entry fee increases from Rs 500 to Rs 1000 on weekends. By the way, apart from Deltin, Big Daddy and Casino Pride
• 18:00 - 18:30 are also there in the main casinos here. If you have come to Goa, then definitely come to the casino. Don't play the game first. No problem, don't spend money first. No problem, don't spend money first. Entry starts from Rs 1500. in which unlimited food and drinks, dance, entertainment etc. are done. So it's fun. And unlimited drinks are also available in it. So for drinkers it will be a good deal. I have taken energy drink I don't drink.
• 18:30 - 19:00 Keep this in mind, if you are coming here and wlll drink then come by cab. If you come by scooty then there is checking of police then you can be in a problem. So keep this thing in mind and if you are a drinker then recover your money by drinking don't do like me by drinking energy drink... There is a dress for casino and only go here by wearing casual dress and shoes.
• 19:00 - 19:30 Bags are not allowed here, you can deposit them on counter here. You can only take mobile and wallet. Taking photo or video from mobile is also not allowed in the gaming area. I am at the Calangute area and you see many shops of clothes here so you can do shopping here. In Rs 250-300 you will get shirt n shorts for both girl and boys.
• 19:30 - 20:00 In Goa, there is a such an expense that will sting you and that is parking fees. You have to pay Rs 50 for scooty as parking in every place. In this way if you roam 10 beaches then your Rs 500 will be spent. And if you hire a car then more than Rs 2000 will be your expense. Weather you go Aguada or Chapora fort you have to Rs 50 for scooty parking.
• 20:00 - 20:30 By the way I have come to the Baga beach and this is the top beach of entire Goa most crowd comes here and party mostly held here. People are sitting here and chilling and in the evening, people come here and a take bath in the sea. And then they go to the hotel and come back after that, they get ready and party.
• 20:30 - 21:00 See, people are playing volleyball here and enjoying the beach. So come, you also enjoy, come with your friends or family Goa is a perfect place. Hindi language is spoken in Goa, but the locals also speak in Konkani language. And the ideal itinerary of Goa is of 3 days in which on the first day,
• 21:00 - 21:30 you can go to places of north goa like Aguada Fort, Baga Beach, Candolim, Calangute, Arambol, Museum of Goa and Chapora Fort. And in the evening, you can enjoy the nightlife of clubs and beaches. On the second day, you can go to Panji, where you can go to Reis Magos Fort, Basilica of Bom Jesus, Immaculate Conception Church, Miramar Beach, Dona Paula and in the afternoon, you can also go for a dolphin trip.

And here, you can go to Indian Naval Aviation Museum, Majroda Beach, Colva Beach and Cabo De Rama Fort. In the evening you can get a massage, fish spa here or just can sit at the beach and enjoy nightlife. If you are with children, you can also go to Snow Park. If you have two more days, then on the fourth day, you can enjoy water sports.
• 22:00 - 22:30 And on the fifth day, you can go for a day trip to Dudh Sagar Waterfall. For which you have to reach Kulem which is 80 Km away from Goa. And from here, you can go for a jeep ride to Dudh Sagar Waterfall for Rs 1000-1500. If you go for a day trip to Dudh Sagar and Water Sports, then Goa's plan will be for 5 days.
• 22:30 - 23:00 In Goa, on normal days, an average hotel charges Rs 2000 per night for two adults. And on meals, two people can spend Rs 1500 per day. On transportation, scooty expenses can be Rs 2000. And if you come or go by car from the airport, then it can cost Rs 3000. Which means, for a couple expense can be Rs 16000, which is around Rs 8000 per person.
• 23:00 - 23:30 You can also get a package for couples for Rs 17,000-18,000. Which includes hotel, airport transfer, breakfast, sightseen and sharing bus. And package can be a good option for family or couples. Because it is very hot here, and you won't have much problem from car or bus. So, after booking the package, your trip becomes very comfortable. Whereas, a scooter is risky and doesn't save you from the heat.
• 23:30 - 24:00 So, by giving Rs 1000-2000 extra, package can also be a good option for you. If you are looking for a reliable company to book the package, then you can book from Fluto Holidays. However, after all this, if you add the entry fees of tourist places, casinos and parking expenses then you will have to spend Rs 6000-7000 more per person. Which means, if you see, you can take a package or do a customised trip. A three-day Goa trip will cost a couple around Rs 25,000.
• 24:00 - 24:30 And the cost of train or flight to reach here will be saparate. However, for solo travellers or in a budget trip, stays in cheap hotels and travel in bus and give less preference to comfort then one person can do a trip of here in RS 5000-6000. Overall, Goa is a place to visit not just once but many times. And especially for couples this is a ideal place.
