Khoj-aao! Adventures

Khoj-aao! Adventures is a small social enterprise in Goa built on a simple idea: most people have never really looked at the wildlife on their own doorstep. Khoj means to look for and aao means come, so the name lands somewhere near wander off and see. Trips are designed to get people, particularly children, students and families, properly into the flora, fauna and fungi of the Western Ghats and the Goan hinterland.

Experiences run from half a day to several days, in Goa and out in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. There is birdwatching in the paddies and mangroves, sunset hikes on the plateaus, waterfall and river trails through the monsoon, overnight camping under the stars and rockpooling along the coast. Guides are wilderness first aid certified and child safe trained, and good kit is provided. The team keeps waste low, runs clean ups, follows Leave No Trace and works alongside local community and conservation organisations.
