Engaging and Knowlegable
We took the Glimpses of Goa Tour privately and are thrilled to join the many other complimentary reviews of Mario and the fascinating tour he curated. One high point was Mario’s knowledge and obvious enjoyment of the foods of Goa and their histories, and the charming bakery treats and lunch he arranged. Mario is exceptionally engaging and knowledgeable, and was well prepared to cope with any special requests or exigencies that arose during the tour. This was one of the very best of the many tours we have taken over many years of extensive travel.

Thank you Glenn for your kind review. I am glad you enjoyed your tour with me though it was a kinda of a last moment thing. It was a pleasure to showcase a bit of Goa to you and your family.
Fantastic Goan Experience!
We have been to Goa several times… But this was the first time we toured the city with a guide.. We are so glad that we chose Mario… From the forts to the lanes to the little tidbits to the best bakery in town… Mario knows it all…

Thank you karthika it was great taking you Anish and your friends out on a tour . It was a pleasure telling you about the history and culture that Goa has to offer other than the sun, sand and sea. Thank you for choosing to take up a tour with me as your guide.
Great Tour in Goa
Being retired Australians traveling throughout Southern India, we were lucky to have Mario as our tour guide for our Goa excursions. He is very knowledgeable about Goa and it’s culture and history. He was always prompt, efficient and very courteous. His English is crisp and perfect. Our two days spent with Mario was most enlightening and enjoyable. Highly recommended
