Airbnb in collaboration with Goa Tourism Department launches ‘Rediscover Goa’ to be held from December 12 to 18. It is a week-long festival honouring Goa's enormous cultural diversity, which extends beyond its beaches and vibrant nightlife. A creative and cultural enterprise that seeks to promote India's pluralistic cultural heritage through content, products and experiences.
Rediscover Goa will offer 20+ specially curated unique Airbnb Experiences hosted by local experts highlighting the eclectic culture, rich heritage, musical traditions, culinary delicacies and thriving landscapes of Goa across the Northern and Southern districts of the state.
Amanpreet Bajaj, General Manager, Airbnb India, Southeast Asia, Hong Kong and Taiwan, said, “Goa is a highly sought-after tourism destination, and is one of the key destination for us at Airbnb. As close partners to Goan communities, we are making conscious efforts to boost unique and immersive experiences in the state. People are increasingly becoming more thoughtful and deliberate about the ways they travel and prefer to make a positive contribution to the local communities. Through Rediscover Goa, we aim to enable such experiences and help travellers discover cultural aspects that are truly reflective of Goa. We are committed to working closely with the local government to support micro-entrepreneurship and help travellers rediscover Goa in its true essence.”
Rohan Khaunte, Minister for Tourism, Government of Goa, said, “Goa is a treasure trove of hidden gems and we have been undertaking several initiatives for travelers from across the world to explore the hinterlands of the state. This partnership with Airbnb will support our endeavours in hinterland tourism & homestay tourism. Such initiatives will bring financial independence to the women who are the majority stakeholder in the homestay business and provide benefits to remote communities. We look forward to working together to promote homestay & hinterland tourism in the state.”
