Itinerario
Comience su viaje con una orientación junto a un hermoso lago en una localidad moderna del sur de Calcuta. En esta área exploraremos la vida de la Calcuta moderna o, como nos gusta decir, la 'Sra. Calcuta del Sur del siglo XXI'.
Llegamos al distrito de negocios de Calcuta. Aquí es donde descubrimos la 'Calcuta victoriana' para comprender el advenimiento británico y ser testigos de algunas de las mejores obras maestras del patrimonio de la ciudad. Deténgase en una famosa calle de comida para disfrutar de un desayuno tradicional bengalí o de refrigerios ligeros mientras observa la cultura actual de la oficina.
Paseamos por el mercado mayorista más grande de la India. Kolkata es una ciudad comercial, este lugar es la mejor parte para comprender la profundidad del comercio.
Seguimos la fascinante ruta comercial desde White Town hasta Grey Town en un tuk tuk, pasando por la ciudad china y las sinagogas más antiguas y escuchando historias del pasado mientras observamos el ajetreo actual.
Llegamos a la ciudad universitaria, también conocida como el centro intelectual de Kolkata. Camine por las calles de la revolución donde se encendieron por primera vez las chispas del movimiento por la libertad. Esta zona también tiene un famoso mercado de libros. Obtendrás cualquier libro que puedas nombrar. Se dice que si no encuentras un libro aquí probablemente no exista. También nos detenemos en el café más famoso de Kolkata, 'The Indian Coffee House'.
Llegamos al 'Pueblo Negro'. Explore barrios de 300 años de antigüedad, explore la famosa localidad alfarera también conocida como 'Kumortuli', sea testigo de la aristocracia bengalí y encuentre varios edificios perdidos en el tiempo y personas que simplemente viven sus vidas. Una visita especial a un gimnasio secreto construido por luchadores resistentes de la era de la libertad y al famoso estudio de escultura.
Viajamos de regreso al presente en un ferry que pasa por debajo del puente Howrah.
Nos bajamos del ferry, tomamos el icónico taxi amarillo y damos un paseo hasta nuestro punto final, que pasa por las elegantes localidades de The 'White Town', que incluye Victoria Memorial.

Great way to see the city on foot in an easy way. Far better than sitting in a taxi all day plus it included a bus and boat ride!
What a wonderful introduction to Kolkata! Polo, my guide, was just wonderful—so knowledgeable, personable, flexible, and open. She shared so much of the city’s history with me, couched in poetry and theater. The itinerary was great—I enjoyed walking with her and really appreciated her smooth maneuvering of the chaotic Kolkata streets! I was exposed to famous sights and also had the opportunity to experience really authentic areas rarely visited by tourists. I took a bus, ferry, and cab and felt like a local. The price was amazingly inexpensive for such a lengthy, quality tour. I would thoroughly recommend it and hope you get Polo as your guide!
It was an absolutely fabulous day! My guide Manush ( sorry if this is spelled wrong!) was so knowledgeable and made the history come alive with his great stories. I learned so much and went places that were not on other tours. I highly recommend this tour!
Paulami was truly inspiring and introduced us to parts of Calcutta I would never have visited on my own, along with stories I otherwise would never have heard. I also really appreciated that we traveled around just like the locals—by bus, ferry, and yellow cab—which made the experience even more authentic. If you want to discover the real Calcutta, this is the tour to take. Highly recommended!
The best thing you can do to get to know Calcutta away from the usual sights. Mayukh, the local tour guide has guided us on foot, by bus, taxi and ferry through various corners of Calcutta. Never would you have found these places alone. Super nice student! He speaks fluent English and responds to the wishes of the group. Interesting insights into the history of the city, which you do not know as a European. I'm totally thrilled. With the heat and the many impressions quite exhausting. But you will never forget this experience!
A totally wonderful tour visiting so many places we would never discover on our own! Both Anushtup and Mayukh were brilliant👏👏👏
Nandita Chandra is one of the best tour guides we have ever experienced. She is an actor by trade, which imbued her stories with a fresh perspective. She was extremely knowledgeable, and encouraged inquires. Her command of India's history was amazing - and she made the stories come alive. This is the tour to take to see the real lives of local people, and to learn some things that *probably* weren't included in your History 101. If you're looking for adventure, this is the tour for you! It includes rides on a local bus, cab, and boat - hang on to your hat! This is definitely a 5 star tour. Take it!!!
An amazing tour that included some really interesting parts of the city I don’t think I would have visited on my own. Paulami was fantastic, she provided so much information on the history of kolkata and more importantly did it in an engaging and fun way. A must do!
It was awesome! Moinak and I hit it off right away and found many topics that interest us both. Super pleasant guy! Plus lots of information about the places visited, but not cluttered. The tour was adapted to things that interest me in general, without making any concrete suggestions. He showed me the real side of Kolkata, a deep dive into everyday life and how a local sees the city. No places with mass tourism, no rattling off of countless monuments, but visiting places that make up the city. For me it was the first thing I did in Kolkata. Get off the plane, get in the cab and meet Moinak. A reception in this town couldn't have been better. A thousand thanks!
