Booking is mandatory.

Konkan Explorers has been operating for ten years improving permanently its procedures and process but it is not to be forgotten that we operate in wild environment and that proper attitude and approach are required. All our activities can be performed by both swimmers and non-swimmers alike. Life jackets are mandatory for both before the water activities start.

Whenever you book a trip, the task of Konkan Explorers management is to create a program of exploration (including itinerary, size of the crew, etc…) for your entire group. For the quality of the experience it is supposed that each member of the group is motivated and in capacity to participate in the exploratory program.

  • In an non-private booking there might be other guests with you on the trip.

  • Private booking is where the boat is exclusively booked for your group.

A minimum of 4 guests are required to open a slot. We can take a maximum of 12 guests on one boat and a total of 24 guests with two boats.

Please note that any change in the number of passengers must be informed in advance.

  • 100% of the amount paid shall be refunded if the cancellation happens a minimum of 20 days before the trip.

  • 75 % shall be refunded if the cancellation happens from 19 to 15 days before the trip.

  • 50 % shall be refunded if the cancellation happens from 14 to 8 days before the trip.

  • No refund if the cancellation happens less than 7 days before the trip.

Any bookings canceled from our end, due to unavoidable circumstances, 100% paid amount shall be refunded in three working days. For any cancellations drop us an email at konkanexplorersgoa@gmail.com

Please note that as we are into water activities it is not as hot as it is on land.

Appropriate clothing for the weather, dry change of clothes, sun protection, hat, bathing suit & towel, or anything else you think you would need for a day on the river can be carried.

As a matter of fact, we do! We have a pop up tent on board that goes up whenever our passengers need to change.

We have a marine toilet on board that is 100% biodegradable – that means, nothing is released into the water, therefore keeping the water clean, hygienic and safe to get in.

Konkan Explorers is an adventure company where we are in contact with natural forces. Even if we are attending and guiding our passengers, we expect from them physical fitness and control. Knowing this a drink is possible in a responsible way. Anyhow, water activities can be restricted by the captain and team if one is deemed to be in danger for themself or others.

Strictly NO SMOKING onboard.

For safety reasons we have a strict no pet policy.

It might surprise you but for the quality of your experience we do not accept exterior music.

We do have our speakers on the boat, the music genres are specifically curated to suit the mood and the surrounding. We are careful not to play loud music.
