So, Why Book a Goan Village Tour with Soul Travelling?

At Soul Travelling, we offer all kinds of trails—but our Goan village tours hit different. These aren’t just walks through pretty places. They’re personal, handpicked journeys into Goa’s quieter, deeper side. Every trail is crafted with locals, built from real stories, and full of little moments you won’t find on any brochure.

Here are three unforgettable Goan villages—each with its own mood, its own magic, and the kind of vibe that stays with you long after you’ve left.

Here are three very different Goan villages, and who they might speak to the loudest.

​

Untold Stories of South Goa - Rachol & Shiroda

​Rachol is all arches, forts, and stories from Goa’s colonial past. It’s got stillness, seminary grounds, and a sense that history here is still breathing. Then you hit Shiroda—vibrant, festive, alive. There are temple bells, snack stalls, laughter, and ritual.

Together, these two Goan villages feel like flipping from a sepia-toned photo to a full-colour festival reel. You’ll walk away feeling like you saw both Goa’s memory and its heartbeat.

Best for: History lovers, festival chasers, cultural sponges, and anyone who wants both sides of the story.

Goan Village Tour of Saligao: For the Curious, Creative, and Slightly Nosy

Saligao is the kind of village you’d drive past if you weren’t paying attention—and that would be a shame. On this Goan village tour, you’ll discover lanes lined with elegant Indo-Portuguese homes, peek into quiet chapels, and hear stories that locals still whisper about the Rakhandar Stone and the centuries-old Baandh.

There’s also the Gothic-style Mãe De Deus Church and a whole lot of leafy silence. If you love old architecture, obscure legends, and taking photos of houses you wish you lived in—Saligao is your scene.

Best for: Design lovers, architecture nerds, slow explorers, and curious explorers.

Rustic Goan Village Tour in Sankhli: For the Unhurried, Earthy, and Peace-Seekers

Sankhli (or Sanquelim) isn’t fancy—and that’s its charm. It’s all temple bells, river breezes, quiet trails, and people who’ve lived here long enough to know every stone by name. This Goan village tour is less about sights and more about presence.

​
Because we don’t give you trivia—we give you connection. Our trails are led by locals, kept small on purpose, and designed so you leave feeling like you’ve actually been somewhere. You’ll taste, talk, listen, and feel what makes each village unforgettable.
