Overview

  • Start your journey with a comfortable hotel pickup in Goa and travel towards the peaceful village of Narve. Here you will visit the revered Saptakoteshwar Temple, an important shrine dedicated to Lord Shiva. Discover its fascinating past, including destruction during medieval invasions and restoration under powerful dynasties.
  • Continue your scenic drive into the lush forest region of the Western Ghats to reach the ancient Mahadev Temple at Tamdi Surla. This 12th century temple stands as one of Goa’s oldest surviving structures and showcases intricate stone carvings and traditional temple architecture surrounded by nature.
  • After exploring the forest shrine, enjoy a relaxing lunch before heading to your final stop, the iconic Mangeshi Temple. Learn about its relocation during Portuguese rule and admire its striking multi level lamp tower, one of the most recognizable features in Goa’s temple architecture.
