And so I'll start from the beginning. Rested from December 7 to December 15.2012 Majorda Beach Hotel. Tour operator Pegasus. The flight to Goa took a little over 7 hours by plane or 96 Aeroflot, the flight was on time, though they woke up the plane at night and forced them to fill out entry visas. For those who want to sleep, do not bother to fill everything in at the airport, it took about an hour to stand at customs, there is enough time for everything. Here is a sample of filling out the declaration for entry and exit.
Delivery to the hotel by bus with Conder, even gave out a bottle of water for free. The hotel was well received, immediately sent to breakfast. After breakfast we were immediately taken to our rooms. We liked the room number 301 everything is clean and tidy. All appliances functioned, the tap water flowed normally, we boiled it and brewed tea, no one complained. The hotel took only breakfast, so we dined on the beach near Kolya and took dinner at the hotel twice. I'll tell you right away that I didn't like the dinner at the hotel. The first time we went to a restaurant at the exit to the sea, we didn’t take a lot of terribly peppered rice and chicken with fries and gave 1.500 rupees for juice from the package. The second time we went to the evening of steaks per person 800 rupees. We sat dryish steaks brought a glass of wine said if we still want something for an additional fee ordered a bottle of 1600 rupees and when they brought the bill it turned out to be worth 1950 rupees. And the wine itself is not so good. All in all, dinner was overpriced. Money was changed in a cafe if he had the most favorable rate of 54 rupees per dollar in a hotel 53 rupees, in a village 53.5 rupees. On the beach, several cafes visited both the right and left cafes at the koli. They feed well on the bellies, no one complained. On average, dinner per person cost 500-600 rupees, and this is with booze and natural juices. We were 6 people usually chose big fish price per fish from 1200 to 1900 rupees a bottle of rum 140 rupees and the rest salads, fries, juices and so on. They also took shrimp, too, a large portion you eat up. Excursions were also taken on the beach. For example, going to waterfalls, spices, elephants at Pegasus costs $ 110 per person, we took a jeep with a driver for $ 180 and everyone went around and looked. It came out to $30 per person. so it is beneficial to travel with a large company. Rum was taken home in the village, local for 135 rupees and bacardi for 450 rupees. Be careful not to overweight in the hotel there are scales, you can go to weigh your suitcase. The weather for the entire time of our holiday was good during the day 30-35 on the street at night 25 degrees, sea temperature 29 degrees. We observed the tide, the ebb, the sea walks for 100 meters. There are a lot of starfish, small crabs, shells in the sea, but no one cut their legs. Beach sand when you go crunches under your feet. We walked along the coast to the city for souvenirs to walk along the coast leisurely for about an hour and from there by taxi to the hotel 300 rupees. We went by taxi for tea to the market. In general, taxi drivers know what you need and will take you there. Departure from the hotel was at 4 am, again a very long passport control, took off 1 hour late but caught up on the road and was only 15 minutes late to Moscow. I didn't like the return feeding on the plane, we stocked up in Goa. In general, the overall impression of the trip is good.
