South Goa

Six nights in South Goa — one base, unhurried days, and the right beaches in the right order

The plane banks low over flooded paddy fields and you already feel the pace shift. Delhi and Mumbai are an hour and forty minutes behind you. A private transfer meets you airside and takes you straight to Alila Diwa Goa, where your room looks out over the same green fields you flew over. No unpacking twice. No wasted mornings.

Alp Travel Co. builds your six nights around a single base. That means every day starts with breakfast for two at Prana restaurant, and ends wherever you choose. An upgrade greets you on arrival when one is available. The itinerary is fixed before you land, so nothing is left to chance.

South Goa’s quieter stretches — Benaulim, Agonda, Cabo de Rama — reward the traveller who moves slowly. October through April keeps temperatures between 20°C and 32°C. The air is dry enough to walk in. Your private chauffeur knows which beach fills up and which stays empty. That knowledge is the difference.

Your room overlooks paddy fields. The transfer is waiting. South Goa starts the moment you land.
