Reviva el legado británico. Rastree nuestros pasos hacia la era colonial y visite algunos lugares destacados que definieron la historia de Kolkata.

The tour was great and our guide Nemai was very lovely! We saw all the sights around Lal Dighi, St. Johns church, the Victoria memorial and St. pauls cathedral.
This was a very good tour and our guide Shaha was very friendly and informative. We toured the main Raj sites and her level of detail was very well pitched. She gave a good feel of what it was like at that time.
Very informative who was able to answer any questions. Tour covered most of the Raj associated buildings and infrastructure plus some interesting associated stories.
I had a great walk with Bratati as my guide. She picked me up from my hotel exactly as agreed and then we spent 3 really informative hours exploring the Victoria Monument and Dalhousie Square. I learnt a great deal about the history and architecture of the places we visited - and Bratati had many colourful stories she used to really bring the place to life. I would certainly recommend this experience.
The tour encompassed a variety of historical buildings during the age of British colonialism and the guide, Bratati, was instrumental in conveying her knowledge on the subject. Her English is wonderful.
