Tired of gray everyday life and unloved work? Friends are calling to rest? Haven't you been at sea for a hundred years? You urgently need to go on vacation! Have you been to Goa? Not? Then we will tell you how to get there.
It is necessary
- 1. Foreign passport, until the expiration of which there are at least 6 months.
- 2. Indian visa.
Instructions
Step 1
First, decide for yourself, do you really want to go to India? If you are a fan of all inclusive vacations, then this is definitely not the place for you. And the level of service in most Indian hotels (except, perhaps, a small handful of five-star hotels) is frankly lame. But if you want to plunge into the original culture of this country, learn about ten million gods, visit ancient temples, see the famous Goan sunsets - pack your bags, let's fly!
Step 2
To make your life easier, you can buy a ticket at a travel agency. The package includes flight, transfer, accommodation and meals at the selected hotel. You will only have to decide whether you will go to the north of Goa - where there are many young people, discos, bars and budget hotels, or to the south, where hotels are more expensive and the rest itself is quieter. When choosing a hotel, pay attention that in India almost all beaches are public, a couple of hotels have their own, which are far from civilization. There is no point in choosing all-inclusive meals. Firstly, there is a very specific food that you may not like, and secondly, having lunch or dinner at a restaurant on the shore (the so-called shake) is quite inexpensive - 80-300 rubles per person, including alcohol.
Step 3
If you are not looking for easy ways and want to save money, you can organize your vacation yourself. To do this, you will need to buy a plane ticket and book a hotel or apartment. There are several air carriers in Russia that operate direct flights to Goa. Aeroflot flies on a regular basis, Transaero and several other smaller airlines have charters. The cost of the flight is from 20,000 rubles and more. Consider purchasing your ticket in advance. Large carriers often have sales, and departures on certain dates are sold at a huge discount. This will significantly reduce the cost of recreation.
Step 4
The purchase of a ticket from foreign airlines will help to reduce the cost of the flight even more. But in this case there are no direct flights, you will have to make a transfer. Etihad Airways (connecting in Doha), Emirates (Dubai), Qatar Airways (Doha), will take you to Mumbai or Delhi, from where you will independently get to Goa by local airlines or taxi. Ticket prices - from $ 150 and more + transfer to the hotel ($ 100-200 round trip).
Step 5
Choose any flight option and go to Goa! Believe me, this trip will be remembered for a lifetime. And even though the Indian streets are not very clean and the bed linen in the room is changed once a week, all this will block the fountain of impressions from the beauty of waterfalls, Hindu temples, Portuguese forts that you can see in this country. And, of course, the ocean, plunging into the warm and gentle waters of which you will forget about all the problems. Good luck and good rest!
