5.00Amazing experience! Our storyteller, Atul Kulkarni, made the entire journey truly memorable. He shared so many fascinating facts and stories throughout the cooking demonstrations, giving us a deeper understanding of Chorao’s rich culinary traditions. The visit to the local kulaghar, the hands-on cooking, and the authentic Goan lunch prepared by the islanders made this experience feel genuinely special. Highly recommend it to anyone wanting to explore Goa beyond the usual.

5.00We had an incredible experience cooking traditional Goan food on a real farm. From the very beginning, I felt very comfortable, and even with a small child, we found plenty to do; it wasn't boring at all. It was especially interesting to listen to our Ambassador, Atul, tell stories; it was clear that he knows what he's talking about and is passionate about his work. It was the best decision to spend Sunday this way. Thank you to the organizers, thank you to the farm owners, and thank you to our Ambassador Atul.
Great experience!!

5.00One of the best experiences, led by Roy and Swati. Met a local goan family, cooked our food with them from scratch and had a hearty meal and afternoon. I mentioned it to them after reaching that it's my birthday and they made it even special- with halwa cake, song and a traditional birthday aarti. Definitely definitely go with them, especially Roy
