Top 5 Things You Should Never Do In Goa Goa is the smallest Indian state but this place never falls short to offer amazing things to you. This beautiful tropical beach destination is a top favourite tourist spot in India. If you want to enjoy a picture-perfect Goa trip, then here are the things that you should never try in Goa.

1. Don’t take taxis or autos Goa is a beach paradise with loads of added things to explore. Villages adjacent to Goa are best places to get introduced to new experiences. When you are in Goa, you need to travel a lot and surely you have to hire a vehicle to do that. But never think of hiring those autos or taxis as they charge hefty. Even pre-paid taxis in Goa are also very expensive. Rather than hiring taxi or car on day-to-day basis, you should take a two-wheeler on rent for whole duration of your trip. You have to bring your driving licence and photo ID card with you. Hiring a two-wheeler will save you from wasting too much on transportation.

2. Don’t schedule your trip in December We understand that you always have thought of scheduling your Goa holiday package in December but that’s probably the most crowded season there. During the month of December, Goa gets over-packed with all party-lovers from every nook and corner of the globe. Due to heavy tourist rush, cost of everything starting from accommodation to food shows a steep rise. If you are tight on budget, then don’t plan your trip during December to January. October to November and February to March are the most favourable time to visit Goa. 3. Don’t hurry up to try water-sport This may sound weird but it is absolutely fine to bargain with the water-sport vendors in order to avail cheap deals. Don’t hurry up to take that parasailing ride or to jump into that banana boat as soon as you reach the beach. Wait till late afternoon to try some water-sport activity and meanwhile don’t forget to keep a watch on the prices charged for those activities. When most of the people on the beach have finished their part of adventure, it is the time to start yours. When rush is not that much, the vendors offer heavy discounts to catch some more participants.

4. Don’t just stick to beaches Goa is not just about stunning beaches but it is also the place of splendid architecture. Goa served as a flourishing and major Portuguese colony for more than 450 years. So, everything here comes with a little Portuguese touch. If you take a look around this wonderful city and the villages nearby, you can spot numerous ancient Portuguese villas and cottages during your Goa trip. Goa is the home to an array of beautiful churches and Our Lady of Immaculate Conception is surely the most gorgeous among all. The Archaeological Survey of India building at Goa is also a stunning piece of Portuguese architecture and style.

5. Don’t gamble Goa is popular beach destination that appeals to foreign travellers and they land here to enjoy a memorable beach vacation. In an attempt to make money out of these foreign tourists, many local fraudsters in Goa plans to loot them particularly by engaging them into gambling. Beware of such gambling events and such fraudsters.
