Visiting Goa is set to get more exciting. Goa tourism is launching hot air balloons and amphibious vehicles in April 2015 to add a new dimension to travelling in the state. Initially six amphibious vehicles and two hot air balloons will be introduced. Each amphibious vehicle can accommodate up to 34 passengers per trip for durations of 30 minutes to an hour this is expected to boost the 'hop on hop off' concept further along Goa's inland waterways. For the hot air ballooning, the initial plan is to introduce tours to Dudhsagar water falls.&nbspChairman of Goa Tourism Development Corporation Limited, Shri Nilesh Cabral said,  &ldquoBoth adventure services will focus on highlighting Goa&rsquos hinterlands and will give tourists an opportunity to explore the rich geography of the state via the sky and the waterways&rdquo.
