Goa, a haven for all the party-lovers, has shockingly received some backlash on social media after a tourist who recently visited the coastal destination described it as a "shithole." He compared it with other South Asian destinations including Phuket, Bali, Sri Lanka, and Philippines. "Hotels and cabs are just focused on looting the tourists.
The clubs are junk charging exorbitant entry fees comparable to Ibiza which is a joke. The beaches are dirty and stuffed with tourists. I don't see why anyone would still visit Goa," X user Aditya Trivedi wrote.
Since being uploaded, the post has gone viral on social media and many seem to agree with him. "The things haunt me till date is the cab driver literally charges me 650 rupees for 5 Km of ride I pay 80-100 rupees maximum in Gurgaon from metro to my office it's distance is same 5 km ..
I bet I won't be going there anytime in my life," commented another user. Another person wrote, "One can easily do Vietnam in under 55k-65k for 7 days straight with best hotels, views, food, clubs, entertainment, spots, etc. That includes pristine beaches from Da Nang.
" On the other hand, to attract more and more tourists, Goa Tourism has now introduced some exciting adventure sports. With the introduction of these adventure activities, more and more tourists will be keen on visiting the place. Here is a list of all the newly-introduced activities.
