Really unique experience in Kolkata. Knowledgable, helpful gide
Shirish was fantastic. He took us on tour on a weekend morning. A group of us were in Kolkata on business. It was great to cycle through the outskirts of the city and the wetlands. Shirish shared some informative facts along the way. I would definitely recommend this for a unique experience if visiting Kolkata!
Shirish was a wonderful and welcoming guide. Seeing this part of Kolkata was a treat not many locals even know is available. I felt safe and cared for throughout the ride and learned a lot about Kolkata's ecosystem and history. This is truly a gem of a tour and I highly recommend! Wake up early and get moving, it is worth it to beat the busy roads and hot weather.
What a wonderful excursion to nature, in the middle of Kolkata! With my wonderful guide Shirish I went to know the eastern wetlands by bike. It was such a respite from the city's contamination and hustle, truly what I needed. The tour takes you on car-free (yes!) paths around the wetlands. We saw countless birds and observed local fishermen do their job. The silence and magical early morning atmosphere made my Kolkata trip complete. 100% recommended.
As a regular business visitor to Kolkata over the last 8 years I am always looking to explore the city in my down time and have done various trips and outings, but this was hands down the best trip I done so far. As a lone traveller it is always important that I feel safe, and Shirish ensured this at all times. This trip takes you to a part of Kolkata rarely known about or visited by tourists and by bike is the best way to see it. The bike and hat provided were well maintained. I am regular cyclist so found this a relatively easy cycle but there is some narrow off road paths, and cycling through traffic. Rest assured Shirish will make this easy and comfortable and will go at your pace. The tour was informative, the cycle through the city was exhilarating, and the peace and tranquility of this edge of the city location was a really special moment. Miss this location, views, way of life and the amazing Shirish at your own peril.
It was an absolute pleasure to ride with Shirish through the wetlands. It felt like riding with a longtime friend. Would recommend to anyone visiting kolkota.
Would highly recommend this experience. It was a pleasure to join Shirish for this well organised, interesting cycle trip through the wetlands. We learnt about the ecological benefits of this unique ecosystem and enjoyed the serenity of this early morning tour. Our bikes were fine and cycle helmets were provided. Even the few km of cycling through Kolkata were fine as Shirish planned a safe route and looked after everyone. A lovely bonus was the photos taken by Shirish, sent after the tour.
The moment we hopped onto the bikes, I knew we had made a good choice. I had never expected to be bicycling in Kolkata, minutes from the city but surrounded by lush greenery. The water bodies, the trees and plants, the stillness - all beautiful. The cycling was tougher than I anticipated, the terrain is very rough ground. Mr Poddar, a nature lover, is a very good guide. My son and I thoroughly enjoyed the morning.
Shirish, our guide, was well prepared. With bikes, helmets, gloves. Our tour lasted about 2.5 hours. Some of it is on city roads. Most on the wetlands. Shirish stopped to provide information about the locations. Enjoyed it thoroughly.
The cycle on the wetlands was so beautiful, the calm waters and the stillness of the early morning watching the sunrise were lovely. Seeing the local fishermen working as a team was great! Shirish was such a lovely conversationalist, telling us so much about India, how the wetlands work and describing the plants in the area. The trail was such a contrast to the hustle and bustle of the Kolkata! We also appreciated the wonderful coffee near the end! Thank you so much, Billie, Claire and Margaret (Ireland)
