Apart
from its stunning beaches, Goa is also home to an astounding variety of
tourist attractions including forts, churches, monuments and wildlife
sanctuaries. While you might relish their aesthetic appeal, the ones
wishing to delve deep into the legacy of these places will find the
tourist guides very handy.
Unassuming chaps, these local tourist guides have mastered their craft
and can talk extensively about the history and significance of a
particular monument. The tourist guides in Goa cal also help you in
matters of local transportation including fares and the modes of
transport.
You can either choose a tourist guide by yourself or ask your hotel
staff choose one for you. Besides being fluent in native Konkani
language, the Goa tourist guides can also speak decent English and
Hindi. Some will even surprise you with a smattering of French or
German.
Even though most of the Goa tourist guides are friendly blokes, do not
take them too much into confidence. Deal with them professionally and
always maintain a proper distance. Do not reveal how much cash you are
carrying and do not hand them your personal belongings under any
circumstances. Keep your generous trait in check and pay the tourist
guides tips only if you are satisfied with their services.
