Several hotels include travel to-and-from airports in the cost of the room, so check with your hotel before making arrangements.
Hire a car
If you’re planning side trips, and even if you just intend to go from North to South Goa, it’s best to hire a car and driver to get around (roughly $50 per day).
Beach babe
Culturally, Indians aren’t exactly the sunbathing sort; so your itsy-bitsy bikini might garner some stares from the locals. Save soaking in the sun for Goa’s private and quiet beaches.
Under lock and key
Hotel room thefts are not uncommon, especially during the year-end party season, so keep your valuables where they belong: at home.
