What to do and see in Bardez, Goa: The Best Nature & Wildlife Tours

April 26, 2022 Vivienne Hutton

Bardez is the name of a region and taluka in North Goa. The name is credited to the Brahmin immigrants who migrated to the Konkan via Magadha in Gangetic India from Āryāvarta, in the north-western part of the Indian sub-continent. Bardez or more properly Bara (twelve) desh (country) means "twelve countries" (or lands). The form "country" probably refers to clan territorial limits, or to the Brahmin comunidades, of which the twelve, in no particular order, are Aldona, Moira, Olaulim, Nachinola, Siolim, Anjuna, Candolim, Serula, Saligao, Sangolda, Assagao and Pomburpa

Live Happy

This village hosts the mysterious Kattor (scissor) monument that’s rumored to be 1,000 years old. The walk begins with an introduction from the son of the soil his energy, passion, pride, and love for the village's rich biodiversity and its architectural marvels will ensure that all remnants of sleep are done away with! The sights to be seen range from beautiful Goan mansions: the pillars and shell windows adorning windowpanes and gates, to the fruits and berries that we'll see along the way. As we go through the village, we'll also play an interactive game that will have you guessing the local wild fruits, domestic fruits, and indigenous medicinal plants that we'll find! Towards the end of the walk, we will head back to the starting point for a unique experience to make your own drink with medicinal ingredients, locally prepared food, and a sing-along to Goan folk songs, which you will definitely be singing along to in the days after your experience with us!
