Traveler reviews
Great experience!
Wonderful experience with Divya. Great communication, super well-curated tour, felt like walking with a knowledgeable friend.
You need to do this!
Truly one of my favourite travel experience ever. Met the nicest people, tried some tasty delicacies, got a performance by a legend. And all of this could not have been possible without the most fun and knowledgable guide, Yashvi :) Super grateful!
A must to-do adventure
An entirely fresh experience. Very good learning experience.
History Comes Alive with Rachana
I had a wonderful experience on the Fontainhas Heritage Walk with Rachana from Make It Happen. Rachana is an exceptional storyteller. She brought the history of Fontainhas to life through fascinating stories, while also explaining the architecture, Goan culture, traditions, and Portuguese heritage in a way that was engaging and easy to understand. It never felt like a history lecture—it felt like walking through a living museum with someone who genuinely loves and understands the place. She was knowledgeable, patient, and happy to answer every question along the way. The pace of the walk was perfect, and I came away with a much deeper appreciation for Goa beyond its beaches. If you’re visiting Goa and want to experience its rich history and culture, I highly recommend taking this walk with Rachana. It was one of the most memorable parts of my trip, and I would happily do another heritage walk with her in the future.
Highly Recommend
Alita was a great guide. Very knowledgeable, personable, some surprises on the tour and well worth the money. Highly recommend when in Goa.
