What you can expect

  • The Island of Dveepvattika (or Divar as we presently know it), is the only major Island in Goa not connected by road. Flanked by Old Goa and Ribandar, this island was once home to famous temples of Goa including the Temple of Saptkoteshwar, the family deity of the Kadambas. As history would have it, it was one of the first places to be captured by the Portuguese in Goa. It suffered a strong bout of inquisition and has innumerable stories to share.

    Our Divar island exploration starts at the Raibandar - Divar Ferry Point. There shall be a ferry crossing to arrive at the island, on which vehicles can be mounted.

    The tour will show you the historic gems of the island and the beautiful scenic landscapes along with it. We visit the ancient ruins of a temple and also witness a beautiful sunset on a fun boat ride through the river. Feni has always been an integral part of Goan culture, and on this tour, we give you a tasting experience at a local tavern!

    Note: This is not a walking trail. Transport would be required between the points in the trail. We recommend using the same transport that you come by for the whole trail. Transport is not going to be provided.
