  It was the most fascinating cruise we’ve ever experienced. Warm, friendly, informative and wonderful hosts. Do not miss this.

  We booked this trip on the last day of our trip to goa. It was the best experience of all. The captain, Pascal and Shraddha and all the other staff... read more (vikram, hiren , sorry i forget names) were very nice, polite and informative. They are passionate about what they do and which is why they provide the best and only one of a kind service here in goa.

We got on board and sailed towards a mangrove at Chapora river. After anchoring the boat we swam in the tidal river and then did kayaking and paddle boarding. We had my 5 year old aboard. Shraddha and pascal took care of her, kept her entertained and made her feel very special. Vikram was with her keeping her safe in the water and all were very nice. Took our pictures and provided us with homemade snacks and drinks. Hummus veggies, tea coffee juices and beers. It was all perfect. Best management i have ever seen.

Thank you konkan explorer

  Really beautiful experience with an amazing team.
They were extremely encouraging and helpful, they made sure that everything felt lively.

  Outdoor, adventure and water sports, you’ll find them all in Konkan Explorers; cruising, kayaking, frisbee, diving.
Indeed a great evening spent with an amazing crew and a breathtaking view.

The fun was never less even if it was a second trip for me after four long years!
Don’t miss the fun and go for the Konkan Explorers run.

  We booked a private sunset and experience tour for a birthday and it was an absolute surreal experience. Poonam and Pascal are seasoned travel tourism hosts and Konkan Express again... read more proved their risk-management protocols are always in place to ensure a stress free perfect trip. Being an adventure lover myself, i understand and appreciate their vigil on safety! Perfectly safe for young ones to aged tourists and everyone in between.

The place they choose for us was breathtaking and magical, with the sun going down and the calm waters with migratory birds flying and swaying as though on cue to music. We kayaked, swam in the sea, and quietly enjoyed the splendour of nature. Just the sounds of the oceans and nature and nary a soul other than us. Their team, as always were judicious with safety, and the hosts (depending on the guests) kept up a lively camaraderie atmosphere.

I got to know Pascal was an early seafarer and has a natural affinity to be at sea. His experience from a young age in this is evident with his knowledge of the sea, weather, tides, flora fauna and local regulations.

And very Punctual!! 🙂

Would highly recommend for a fantastic private experience in the sea!!

The team running the excursion was top-notch - not only were they incredibly efficient and knowledgable, but they also made sure to prioritise child safety at all times, which put my mind at ease as a parent. The team - Shraddha, VB, Viraj and Vikram were efficient and friendly, and they really made the experience enjoyable for everyone. I would highly recommend this cruise to anyone looking for an adventure on the water!

  A Friday evening experience - We did a trip with Konkan Explorers on 10th February 2023. It was out first exploration along the Chapora. We booked a cruise for 75 minutes and it was a... read more marvelous evening. We really appreciated the attention and follow-up from the staff at Konkan explorers who took time out late into the evening to call us, share information and follow-up the next morning - thank you Glefi. The cruise on the yacht was very special and very well organized. The crew comprising Vikram, VB and Shradhha were very attentive and extend a lot of care, warmth, joy and fun which adds immensely to the whole experience. Also the attention to detail on the yacht is excellent including the small bites, drinks etc. The yacht is very well maintained, with beautiful details, enhancing the whole experience. We also appreciated very very much that there was no loud music played on the yacht.

This cruise takes you along the Chapora river, to the edge of the sea, to anchor and watch the sun set on the Arabian sea.

  This was my first trip with my mother to Goa and I was very lucky that I got a slot for the Adventure Formula provided by the Konkan Explorers. Even... read more though my mother is aged 62 years, it was only because of the constant motivation and safety measures taken by their professional instructors that made her confident enough to take up all the activities(which included cruising, swimming in the Chapora river, stand up paddle, kayaking in the mangroves and also taking a dive into the water from the yacht) without giving a second thought. The instructors were all polite, professional, friendly, constantly engaging and well versed of their surroundings(i.e. Flora and Fauna). They were even kind enough to click our photos of the entire tour of 3 hrs on their corporate phones which they shared to us later via Google drive. The on board complimentary drinks, snacks and the sandwiches made from authentic Goan bread Poi were simply amazing. The gist of the story being, me and my Mother truly enjoyed each and every moment with the Konkan Explorers and I am really thankful to Glefi(for co-ordinating so well on the calls and making me get a slot available even on a weekend) and all the instructors Viraj, Vikram, VB, Kamran, Hiren for making this experience so amazing. Me and my Mother highly recommend to add Konkan Explorers to the Itinerary of your next Goa Vacations.

We loved jumping off the boat into the Charpora river, paddling and kayaking into the mangroves.
This is a must do for anyone visiting Goa with family or friends.

  Oh my god, I literally don’t know where to start. The best experience of my life. These guys are wayy to underrated and I lowkey don’t want to show them... read more off to the world bcz I completely loved the fact that they weren’t commercial at all. For them it was not about the money or anything else but just about giving a good time to the folks and making sure they come back again and again.Poonam our beautiful lovely host, and her ever so charming husband were super warm and sweet. Their other crew members were also very sweet and helpful. They have some delicious snacks and drinks on board. Also a cute lil loo. They made us feel so much at home and so comfortable so quickly. I would highly recommend this experience. It’ll be unforgettable I swear. Just go ahead. Your search ends here for the most perfect day in Goa!!!!!

  A memorABle event with my little ones in the magical mangroves that created the goan coast.

I chose to opt for this private cruise/kayaking option for my daughters 5th... read more Birthday. I had great experience kayaking in Andaman and ​seen 4 year olds join thier parents for deep sea kayaking.After 8 years of that experience I had a additional complexity, we were now vacationing with our 1 year old Son too.

When i enquired about how i could manage my 1 year old during this ride, the professional and friendly approach by Poonam, I felt comfortable about thier older experience in handling 4 month olds and the end result was truely amazing for My wife, myself and, 2 kids

We were lucky to have a high tide day and we landed on a grove island that was submerged by 3 feet, diving out of the yatch (secret - I or my daughter are not swimmers) but the confidence into us by the very proffessional crew, got us to enjoy every activity.

Truely Proffesionals are at play here and you would see every penny worth of engagement with your family. Even my 1 year old was in the waters, with his safety suite.

I have worked on training ai systems with submerging areas of sunderbans, and the konkan Explorers are not just doing thier eco tourism bit, but are also assisting Govt of Goa with stats on how the mangroves is Actually growing year on year. In a world where nature is struggling to survive in Human contact Zones,what we can witness in Morjim is nothing less than a miracle.

And this miracle is served very well by Konkan Explorers with thier rich experience in this space. If you are looking for A unforgettable Natural experience in Goa, this should be your one sure destination.

If you have come to Goa earlier as a Bachelor and done what people do in Goa, and now with Family you wish to be a tea totaller (though there is a beer on board after all the activities) - ontop of all this, due to Covid restrictions have not been able to get into water sports in groups. Your spend on this one event is way beyond value for money than any other spends.

An experience that I shall truely cherish for ages to come. Thank you Konkan Explorers for crafting this experience so well.

We did a cruise with kayaking on the Chapora river in September, though off season, this was a better experience for me compared to kayaking in December.
