What to expect

The mangrove forests of Goa are a haven for rare plants, birds and wildlife. On this tour, you'll take a boat cruise downriver to spot freshwater crocs and hit a spice plantation to learn all there is to know about the exotic produce that thrives here. What's more, you'll have a traditional lunch included too.

Cast off from St.Estevam jetty and you'll glide down the Mandovi River by boat. Cruising through the mangrove forest, you'll see local fishermen at work, unusual birds and keep a keen eye out for the Mugger species of crocodile that call these waters home.

Back on land, you'll head to a nearby spice plantation where a warm Indian welcome awaits. Take a fascinating tour of the estate, sniff the intense scents of vanilla, nutmeg and cinnamon and enjoy your fill of tasty local dishes.
