Loutolim village is good for a morning's outing; visit the somewhat overrated Big Foot Museum and an ancestral house across the road, explore the old village on foot, and stop to admire Miranda House—a well-preserved example of a Goan country house. Stopping to have lunch at one of Goa's most delightful restaurants, Fernando's Nostalgia, in the courtyard of the chef's house on the Ponda-Margao road, finishes the day trip perfectly.
