A curated and thoughtfully planned tour of Margao

We were in Goa for a team offsite and the Margao walking tour and food trail with Make it Happen was a team bonding activity scheduled for the last day. Highly recommend both the overall experience and our guide Pavan. The tour starts at the Margao church with stops at a local bakery, restaurants and market. It was fascinating to walk through a neighborhood with ruins of old homes of wealthy families that lived there in the past. Pavan gave us a lot of rich insights into Goan history including ...read more

Dia maravilhoso pelas ruas de Margão

Uma experiência maravilhosa tanto gastronómica como a passeio pelas coloridas ruas de Margão, cidade que recomendo vivamente a visitar. Experiência no mercado de Margão foi super enriquecedora. O Guia Pawan foi super atencioso quer na explicação dos locais, igrejas, templos hindus, comida, mercados, ruas, etc. Muito bom mesmo, aconselho vivamente.

Amazing food tour

The food trail was an amazing experience, and Alita was an amazing guide. I enjoyed a lot talking about food, tasting some amazing dishes from Goan cuisine and wandering around the city experiencing the central market as well. I really recommend this tour, especially since Margao is a beautiful city in which its cuisine mirrors its cultural beauty!
