HOHO Goa, How, Where, When Questions Answered.
Hi There,
You are planning to visit Goa, probably you have heard of this fascinating sightseeing service launched by Goa Tourism called HOHO Goa.
When it comes to using the service, tourists have countless questions. It's high time these questions get answered and thereby making it super easy for every one to enjoy the HOHO Goa sightseeing tour.
Here I have compiled the most asked questions. Let's get started.
"From Margao Railway Station what is the nearest pick up point?",
"I am planning to stay near Calangute, what is the nearest HOHO Bus stop."
In this post I will explain how easy it is to board HOHO bus,no matter you are a Goan living in Goa since birth or a new-bee traveler coming all the way from Russia to visit Goa for the first time.
HOHO Bus has its pick up points located in and around Panjim, Goa. Click here to get the pick up point information
There are 19 tourist spots to explore like Miramar beach, Dona Paula, Basilica of Bom Jesus and lots more. See the list of places here. As it's a Hop On Hop Off Bus Service, you can explore not only the main attractions on the route but also the nearby attractions. For instance, while you get down at Basilica of Bom-Jesus also explore the nearby worth visit places like Arc of Viceroy, St. Catherine Chappel and lots more.
At present the price has been fixed to Three hundred rupees only.
In the end, How to reach the HOHOGoa Pick Up point. Last question, but the most important question in the mind of all tourists who like to explore Goa with the HOHO Bus.
In Goa, unlike other cities in India where the public transport has Buses, Metros, Autos, Taxis, Ola & Uber the public transport is limited to buses & Taxis only. Hence a parallel transport option has been created by Goans where they offer 2-wheelers and Car for hire that too at a very economical price
