Goan tourism is not for the party or music or concert jungle it’s for its natural beauty and tradition and beautiful goan people with hospitality in its blood which has been destroyed by uneducated people in power and tourism industry 😢
@@aspirationshr3022 yes, u r right, Goa is for its natural beauty and tradition, but the people of goa made it into a cheap bar. You cannot open a bar and then say music and sound is not allowed. In fact, Goa has one of the top 10 biodiversities in the world. It has a lot more potential than this. But as you said rightly, the uneducated people have handled it. But u cannot blame the current government. Who carried the Portuguese legacy and brought this drinking culture and tax free liquor? Who has done this mess of dumpyards since 1961? People of goa went on voting those who benefitted the liquor and coal mafia earlier. Now the people pretend to forget and keep protesting against actual development. Eventually the governments are made up by the people from amongst them. The people are not allowing cabs, not allowing airports, not allowing anything. Tourism can be nature-based with cultural values.
@@VeeralShah-j3lNon-Goans, especially North Indians, Gujaratis and Marwadis who are running almost all hotels, restaurants, stores, etc, have destroyed Goa.
Umm, as a Goan, I have to say, why does everyone always blame the North Indian tourists for everything? Goa has lost its charm solely because our Goans have sold their souls to money.
I have worked in Goa for one year, i had a feeling that it was going down since then.Highly corrupt state, highly corrupt people, atleast in the vicinity of tourist centers.But how could govt fails to regulate such a small state in such a bad way? There is no one to correct the system.
Mr. Navneeth don’t generalize the statement . There may be some highly corrupt people which you have experienced which may be right but you cannot say highly corrupt state. I see daily in the news some way or the other majority of the states in India are corrupt because of the corruption in political parties by ruling or opposition in any sector. Secondly you have mentioned y failure to manage small state here you right and I will answer your question . The thing is if you see Goa is small state which has less appetite in the sense it cannot accommodate that many tourist population . In late 90s population was less and managing was easy now population of local people increased over and above tourists and secondly if you see population per km staying in the vicinity is very high. Loud noise of the music disturb locals. If you forget about our local population and consider only geographical area that too North west Goa. It is difficult to accommodate tourists in large count . We are already above benchmark hence many foreign brands are continuously opening their hotels in Goa by doing their market research. Having too many tourist is also disadvantage for sustainability point of view.
Goa was know for it's people,now where are the plp, tourism run by outsiders, quality of plp coming to Goa mostly from north.what can we offer.its better tourist stop coming
@@sunnynaik6797 i ill tell you one experience,i boarded on a route bus from Panchim to Calangute on 31 dec 2013 from Panchim bus stand.The bus charged me and my friends per head Rs 300 which usually is Rs10-15.This is a very easy thing, how the state fail to prevent this?In my state of Kerala, it will never happen.
You are right but I wouldn’t blame the system as much due to corruption as much due to the “protest based mentality of the local people. If the local people who are the decision makers do not protest at every given situation, no system can work. I have been associated with Goa for the last 30 years (made heavy investments in Goa for business ventures but am SCARED SHIT for staring something due to the hatred for non-groan Indians) and have seen how the people aggressively stop all mechanisms for sophistication of tourist friendly policies (no cabs, no sound, no spirit of hospitality, no development), then no system on this planet can work. All they want is protest protest protest for everything.
I canceled my Goa trip last month and chose Thailand instead, and it turned out to be the best decision. The facilities I enjoyed in Thailand would have costed me twice in Goa. Beyond that, there's a noticeable difference in safety and hospitality - tourists in Thailand feel much safer, day or night. While Goa has issues with local gangs, Thai locals are polite and helpful, creating a welcoming vibe that truly enhances the experience.
Foreign tourists have been flocking to Goa for many years despite the bad roаds and infrastructure generally, they really didn’t mind how it was. The problem is mass Indian tourism. Just as mass tourism has destroyed many European destinations it’s destroying Goa as holiday destination for foreigners. And yes Goa is also pricing it self out of the market. So sad, it was such a special place.
Even the domestic tourist are avoiding Goa time to look into the actual fault taxi mafia , poor infrastructure, locals ready to loot all over .. go Goa gone
😂😂😂 very nice blame game ,goans call ghanti tourism 😂😂😂 besharamon tum khud hi nalayak ho foreign tourists to Gaye ab Indian tourist bhi much Fer lenge ,economy ke L lagenge na tab pata chalega
I have been frequent visitor since 2011, monthly once. Now the hotel where I stayed for 700 to 1000, now charged 2000 in may, 2500 in sep, when I enquired for dec 24 receptionist told Sir it is increasing with breakfast included so call and confirm booking. So, instead of spending 10k on flight fare, 7500+ for hotel, 1200+1200 airport transfer, I can visit Kualalumpur, Colombo and Bangkok for the same cost. which offer beaches, night life. Casinos and good food. So my next trip Malaysia. So goa is losing international tourist also like this.😊
Our Goa ain't remain like earlier, roads are full of potholes and cities are very dirty, garbage you will find road side, beaches are dirty, cleanliness is completely missing. Government is busy in corruption and other officials are busy in bribe and says you are welcome in the Goa. 😀😁😄
Local mafia looting money .... 500 rs scooty charege 50 rs tea Food charges 3 times No ola and uber ...taxi minimum charge 500 rupees In name for sightseeing they charges toomuch Worst experience 😢😢 Be care full if anybody coming with family
the foreign tourists are not coming because the government has made beautiful seaside villages into overdeveloped concrete jungles. They ruined Goa's charm
Goa is Very expensive overall... You pay 5 to 10 times for everything such as food , clubs , taxis , hotel accommodation , two wheeler hire ect.... If on a holiday weekend any tourist wants to visit then that time all the hotels increase the prices for those specific days ... Very very unfair...
Goa is a beautiful place with really nice people. Though we have to understand that other destinations actually have much better facilities and infrastructure. They are even way cheaper. A five star in Thailand can by of 5-6k. The infrastructure needs to be much better.
Last August I went to goa and in arambol , i spend 575 rupees for fried rice and cola for lunch and this October i went thailand where in pattaya i spend 150 baht (approx 375 Rs) for a good portion noodles and pearl milk tea , that too at international standard facilities. Then will i go Goa again ? That's commonsense
Most of the hotels are run by punjabis and Delhites who charge exhorbitantly. Foriegn tourist would come to enjoy the goan ethos, hospitality and respect they enjoyed.
Casinos have destroyed the capital city Panjim once upon a time a beautiful city .Decent foreign tourists have stopped coming to Goa because of Govt policies which encourage low quality tourists who only cause problems for the locals due to their lack of hygiene .Smart City projects have messed up the Capital City
Goa used to be the ultimate paradise-a chill place where international tourists and hippies could let loose, enjoy the sun, and soak up the unique culture. But somewhere along the way, that magic has started to fade. Instead of quiet beaches and laid-back vibes, you’re now hit with noisy crowds, litter everywhere, and endless lines. It’s like the soul of Goa has been smothered under the weight of its own popularity. Indians, seeking a European-style holiday within India, were drawn to Goa by the allure of bikini-clad foreign tourists, which became a unique attraction for visitors from small towns and cities. International tourists, who used to feel like Goa was a hidden gem, are starting to disappear. They’re looking for peace and beauty but finding noise, traffic, and prices that don’t match what they’re getting. They come expecting a relaxed retreat and leave feeling squeezed out, like there’s no room left for the Goa they once loved. Once a haven for free-spirited hippies and later a favorite retreat for international travelers seeking a mix of sun, sea, and serene escapes, Goa has seen a marked decline in its appeal to international tourists, and much of it is self-inflicted. What was once an oasis of tranquility has turned into a densely-packed hotspot, overrun by a chaotic blend of unsustainable crowds, subpar infrastructure, and unchecked commercialization. The influx of domestic tourists, drawn by the lure of a European-style holiday on Indian soil, has brought with it economic gains but at a steep cost to the quality of the tourist experience. Domestic tourists are being treated as milching cows. For all the money spent on flights, trains, and overpriced taxis, the experience can feel like one big rip-off. Roads are too narrow, traffic is endless, and public transport is practically nonexistent. It’s as if Goa expects tourists to come with bottomless wallets but doesn’t care about giving them a good time in return. And sure, you’ll find water sports and beach activities, but they’re pricey and nowhere near the level of safety and quality you’d get in places like Thailand or Bali. The food is no bargain either, and while some foreign tourists may be happy to relax on the sand with a beer and skip meals, local visitors want to try the cuisine, buy souvenirs, and enjoy the place without feeling gouged at every turn. But with the cost of everything going up and basic facilities lagging, more and more people are wondering if Goa is even worth it. It feels like Goa is losing touch with what made it special. If something doesn’t change soon, this paradise will keep slipping away, and tourists-both foreign and local-might decide it’s just not worth the trip anymore.
The problem in South Goa, parking is a nightmare, as a tourist, you get ripped off with the Taxis etc. specially in Margao, I have been there last year myself. Secondly, having two Airports, there are not much choice for direct Flights apart from Air India &TUI which are too high for the price. If there were schedule flights like Kuwait, Emirate's or even Etihad Airways to Goa, people would have a choice to come to Goa with shorter time even in transit for choice. Someone like Tourism Minister please look into this, thanks.
Goa is the worst place!!! I went last month with the office mates! Worst decision ever made. Totally dirty and even worse than some African nations. The beaches are exceptionally garbage ridden no improvement or facilities. Roads are full of pot holes throughout the state! Buildings and infrastructure look like it's from 1950s! Kerala offers much higher standards especially Kovalam beach in Trivandrum
Kerala has no vibe. Goa is Goa. Don't compare. Problem is Vietnam, Thailand, Bali and others that have lowered visa restrictions while offering much better prices.
Kerala❌️ Migration from other States to Goa is Massive that itself tells u that there is no place like Goa in India.. Y Big celebratis don't buy houses In kerala??Y they move to Goa then ..Goa is made dirty by non goans .
We have a chief minister and his ministers who are deadly afraid of the taxi mafia. If Manohar parrikar was alive he would have destroyed the taxi mafia and allowed Uber and Ola. Taxi mafia is killing goa tourism. I want all tourists to BOYCOTT GOA until they allow Uber and Ola. The tourist minister cannot even get the music played after 10pm, can't clean the beaches or remove the dogs and cows, can't get the roads to anjuna and vagator beaches widened.
Number 1, Goa needs App based Taxi for sure Number 2: Garbage problems are a big issue. Goa needs dry and wet bins installed all around, which need to be emptied from time to time. Number 3, the Power grid needs to be upgraded for more users. Number 4, Internet. There are many internet players now but too many fibre cuts. Goa needs proper trunking for cabling and not to hang a cable from pillar to post.
Instead of spending my hard earned Taxed rupees in Shitty GOA, I rather spend them in Dubai or South East Asia 🌏 Holidaying in GOA or within India is very expensive than flying abroad.
God is more beautiful then Thailand and south east Asia but goa police not Tourism friendly and migrant local very rude , over price and poor night life , road not good and taxi mafia
Wt do ull accept from Builder lobby Govt they destroyed Mountains , lakes and river also beaches and gave it to delhi builder lobby to build Apartments eg Check Bhutani Case of Sancoale only panchayat and Tcp office of govt gave permission and police are helping bhutani to do illegal things
@@atticthehattrickFeel so happy when North indians say they need to stop visiting Goa.. Coz Goa has been a mess bcoz of northindians just like mumbai...
The host must understand his idea of what development means. Expanding every roads isn't development. Would you give your personal space for road widening ? At what cost are we locals going to have you tell us terms and conditions. Thisis utter nonsense.
Im malaysia.. In my country we had a tourism police... All about turist safety handle by them.. Local police are not allowed to harrased turist... And tourism police with their smile and polite.. We know how big tourism help our economy.. Went they gone it hard to pushing them back.. Today malaysia is the most visit country in south east asia over thailand singapore indonesia and vietnam... God bless goa tourism...
Roads are the worst in Goa....potholes at a distance of every metre. If you want a free massage, then drive on the Goa roads. The land mafia with huge building projects and these non goan elements running businesses in Goa are to be blamed for the slump.They are destroying our once peaceful land.
Goa full of scamsters and way too much costly for what it offers right from taxi hotels food amenities everything. Locals too much arrogant no hospitality whatsoever! Have stopped visiting to Goa for my vacations long ago, Nowadays I prefer Thailand, Bali Vietnam Maldives.
Now the blame game will start open your eyes ministers before everything will be lost the taxi drivers who you are supporting so loyally because off your own selfish interest over tourism in the end the tourists local and foreigners suffer over inflated charges please open your eyes and get ola and Uber as fast as possible better roads control the crime
Where ever and when ever people act. OVERSMART ...KARMA will get back . Scamming Tourists / Rowdy behaviour of Localities ...hiking prices exorbitantly for rooms / Charging High for taxis ...Food ...1 fish curry rice is Rs 300 ...my god .. There are more hospitable people around in Karnataka / Kerala / Maharashtra ...Tourists will go there abandoning the overcrowded ... over priced ...OVERSMART ...GOA😁😁😁
Mr BJP spokesperson,take some time ,come to vagator,anjuna, soilim,morjim ,etc etc and see the road conditions and how people and tourists suffer!!!. sometimes the guests dont want to take a massage bcoz they know,they wil get body massage free of cost while travelling on the roads which are full of potholes!!!
No garbage, no spitting, no one following us for selfie, no one touching us, less drunks. And yes, we get beautiful divan beds, crisp white bed linen, daily room cleaning, free white towels, ac, beautiful curtains, good price taxis. I could compare all day 😂

Consider you as a Tourist, you face a very minor accident and need medical help, where would you go - Just one hospital the entire of Goa that is in congested place with working and confusing road directions of Bambolim GMC
20 years back Goa was bliss as the people and local residents providing tourism services were warm, tourist friendly and genuine. Their next generation is more of with goon attitude and offer threats than service. Goa of full of touts these days. The price for everything has skyrocketed; and no incremental value of experience. Plus the place is no more clean and serene. Goa no more offers the cool lifestyle that once offered due to increase in conservatism. Locals abuse you if they see you hanging around on beach with a beer bottle in hand. Why Goa when there are many other better alternatives which offer superior experience!

Goa full of scamsters and way too much costly for what it offers right from taxi hotels food amenities everything. Locals too much arrogant no hospitality whatsoever! Have stopped visiting to Goa for my vacations long ago, Nowadays I prefer Thailand, Bali Vietnam Maldives.
Now the blame game will start open your eyes ministers before everything will be lost the taxi drivers who you are supporting so loyally because off your own selfish interest over tourism in the end the tourists local and foreigners suffer over inflated charges please open your eyes and get ola and Uber as fast as possible better roads control the crime
Where ever and when ever people act. OVERSMART ...KARMA will get back . Scamming Tourists / Rowdy behaviour of Localities ...hiking prices exorbitantly for rooms / Charging High for taxis ...Food ...1 fish curry rice is Rs 300 ...my god .. There are more hospitable people around in Karnataka / Kerala / Maharashtra ...Tourists will go there abandoning the overcrowded ... over priced ...OVERSMART ...GOA😁😁😁
Mr BJP spokesperson,take some time ,come to vagator,anjuna, soilim,morjim ,etc etc and see the road conditions and how people and tourists suffer!!!. sometimes the guests dont want to take a massage bcoz they know,they wil get body massage free of cost while travelling on the roads which are full of potholes!!!
Before that tourist is not cme to goa they re not keep the fact
Foreigners are complaining about price! How can Vietnam, Thailand and Bali give lower prices and better infra?
Because we Indians are by birth and culture are thieves and have low regards for others property
They have lower price and better infrastructure. Just google it.
Unless we don’t understand our competition and work. We won’t be able to defeat them.
No use explaining to the arrogant people in power, cause they are deaf to the truth & seek their own benefit in everything.
No garbage, no spitting, no one following us for selfie, no one touching us, less drunks. And yes, we get beautiful divan beds, crisp white bed linen, daily room cleaning, free white towels, ac, beautiful curtains, good price taxis. I could compare all day 😂
Goa is vikisit before India.
There is as much of shit in goas sands and water ways then there is in trump daipers. And the place stinks trump.

Russia is at war so is isreal, England is facing economic woes and still faces complicated visa process.
There numbers have not reduced in Thailand. If this was the case then all the destinations would be equally hit
Weed marijuana is legal in Thailand and so is prostituting
Visa process also a complicated thing so thailand is always best no headache
Most tourists don't want to dwell with the dead. After exposition tourism will improve.
No surprises when drugs n drinks is the law.
Consider you as a Tourist, you face a very minor accident and need medical help, where would you go - Just one hospital the entire of Goa that is in congested place with working and confusing road directions of Bambolim GMC
20 years back Goa was bliss as the people and local residents providing tourism services were warm, tourist friendly and genuine. Their next generation is more of with goon attitude and offer threats than service. Goa of full of touts these days. The price for everything has skyrocketed; and no incremental value of experience. Plus the place is no more clean and serene. Goa no more offers the cool lifestyle that once offered due to increase in conservatism. Locals abuse you if they see you hanging around on beach with a beer bottle in hand. Why Goa when there are many other better alternatives which offer superior experience!
