Itinéraire
Commencez votre journée par une visite de ce lieu serein et inspirant. Vous y passerez environ une heure, prenant le temps de visiter la tombe de Mère Teresa et le petit musée qui présente sa vie et son œuvre. C'est un départ paisible qui donne un ton réfléchissant à la journée. (Note : La chambre des mères est fermée le jeudi)
Dalhousie Square (BBD Bagh) : Visite guidée de ce cœur colonial de Calcutta. Vous passerez devant de magnifiques bâtiments de l'époque britannique comme le palais du gouverneur, l'église Saint-Jean, le bâtiment des écrivains, le bureau de poste général et le bâtiment de la monnaie, pour en apprendre davantage sur le passé de la ville en tant que capitale du Raj britannique.
L’église Saint-Jean est l’une des plus anciennes de la ville et a été construite à l’époque où Calcutta était la capitale britannique. Cette église a été la cathédrale anglicane de 1815 à 1847, date à laquelle la cathédrale Saint-Paul a obtenu cette désignation.
Un court trajet en voiture vous amène à l'un des marchés aux fleurs les plus grands et les plus chaotiques d'Asie. Il s'agit d'une surcharge sensorielle de couleurs, de sons et d'odeurs. Vous assisterez au commerce animé de fleurs fraîches sous l'emblématique pont Howrah, une séance de photos parfaite et une tranche authentique de la vie de Kolkata.
Faites une courte promenade sur l'emblématique pont Howrah, merveille d'ingénierie et l'un des ponts cantilever les plus fréquentés au monde.
Kumartoli est un quartier de potier traditionnel dans le nord de Kolkata. Les idoles en argile sont fabriquées ici pour différents festivals et exportées vers d'autres pays.
C'est un paradis pour les amateurs de livres et un véritable centre intellectuel de Calcutta. Passez beaucoup de temps à parcourir les innombrables stands, où vous pourrez trouver de tout, des livres anciens rares aux nouvelles parutions. L'expérience sonore et visuelle de ce marché est unique et inoubliable. (Note : Le marché du livre est fermé le dimanche.)
Situé en plein cœur de College Street, l'Indian Coffee House est une institution emblématique. C'est l'endroit idéal pour une pause déjeuner ou un café. Vous entrerez dans un espace qui a accueilli des générations d'intellectuels, d'artistes et d'étudiants, absorbant le charme de l'ancien monde et la culture intellectuelle "adda" (bavardage). Profitez de votre café et collations.
L'un des monuments les plus célèbres de Calcutta, ce magnifique bâtiment en marbre est un hommage à la reine Victoria. La visite d'une journée vous permettra non seulement d'admirer son grand extérieur et de flâner dans les jardins, mais aussi de visiter potentiellement le musée à l'intérieur, qui abrite une vaste collection d'art et d'artefacts américano-britanniques. (Note : Le musée est fermé le lundi.)
La cathédrale Saint-Paul est reconnue comme la première église épiscopale d'Asie. Située près du Victoria Memorial, cette église indo-gothique est un site à voir. Vous pourrez explorer son intérieur magnifiquement conçu, avec ses superbes vitraux et son ambiance tranquille.
Promenez-vous dans ce cimetière évocateur du XVIIIe siècle. C'est un arrêt fascinant et souvent étrange. C'est l'un des plus anciens cimetières non religieux au monde, avec d'impressionnants tombeaux et mausolées de l'époque coloniale. Les imposantes tombes indo-saracéniennes et les obélisques recouverts de mousse racontent les histoires poignantes des premiers Britanniques qui vivaient et travaillaient dans la ville.
Prinsep Ghat est une belle promenade au bord de la rivière à Calcutta. C'est un endroit populaire pour les pique-niques, les promenades en bateau et les promenades relaxantes le long de la rivière Hooghly.

We booked a one-day sightseeing tour in Kolkata with all the main highlights in mind, and it exceeded our expectations in every way. Muzaffar was an outstanding guide who brought this beautiful city to life for us. The itinerary was thoughtfully planned, and his deep knowledge of Kolkata’s history and culture truly impressed us. What made the experience especially memorable was how Muzaffar and his driver tailored the day to our interests, particularly our love for people and photography. It felt much more personal than a typical sightseeing tour; rather than just ticking off landmarks, we experienced the city from unique and meaningful perspectives. We felt completely comfortable and well taken care of throughout the day, with safe and smooth transportation thanks to the careful and mindful driver. We highly recommend Muzaffar to anyone looking to explore Kolkata in an authentic, engaging, and insightful way. Thank you again for such a wonderful experience! Best wishes, Thomas & Julia

This was an excellent tour and Muzaffar was an excelkent guide. The tour lasted 6 hours and we visited all of the main sites as well as some that we would never have seen by ourselves. Muzaffar brought to life the history and context of the sites we visited in a way that no guide book can match.
Dear Mr. Trevor Drew, Thank you so much for the kind words! It is truly rewarding to hear that the 6-hour journey provided a deeper look into the city than a standard guidebook could offer. I take great pride in sharing the "hidden gems" and the rich historical context that make this region so unique. It was an absolute pleasure meeting you and Mrs. Elaine, and showing you around. We are thrilled that the experience left such a lasting impression. Safe travels, and hope to see you again for another exploration! We look forward to the opportunity of welcoming you again soon. Take care & stay blessed! Best regards, Muzaffar Khan Tour de Kolkata
This was my third formal tour of Kolkata and I wanted to replicate the best one for a group of friends this Spring. Muzaffar was our guide and he was very happy to customize our stops and expertly share history and stories along the way. We had coffee together and went to the BEST lunch during the day. I also asked Muzaffar to arrange a private sunset boat cruise and that was magnificent! He became our local expert while here and even joined part of our team on an early morning trip back to the Howrah bridge to watch a local wrestling match and have breakfast. He is now a friend I have referred to others and I will definitely be using his services each time I return!
Dear Kasey, Thank you so much for such a thoughtful review! I really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. I truly enjoyed customizing the day for your group—from the history at the bridge to that sunset cruise, which was a highlight for me too! More than just a tour, it felt like spending the day with friends. It was an absolute pleasure and privilege meeting you and your friends. We are delighted that you thoroughly enjoyed your 'Private Kolkata Tour.' I’m already looking forward to your next visit. You know where to find me for more coffee and hidden lunch spots!

I booked the tour and Muzaffar contacted me. On 25/02 , the day of the tour he reached before the stipulated time. We were warmly welcomed and the tour started. He was very much looking after our comfort and all the sightseeing and especially the flower market and Victoria memorial were amazing. We actually got a lot of knowledge about origins of modern Kolkata and how it shaped up over 300 years. At every stage we were guided and helped with busy road crossings. The Indian Coffee house and Rossogulla origin place were a highlight. I would strongly recommend this tour.
Dear Mr. Rajnish Sekhri, Thank you so much for your kind words and for choosing our tour! We are thrilled to hear that we made such a positive impression. It’s wonderful that you enjoyed the vibrant energy of the Flower Market and the historical grandeur of the Victoria Memorial. We take great pride in sharing the 300-year evolution of Kolkata, so we’re glad that the history of the city’s origins resonated with you. We also appreciate you mentioning the smaller details, like navigating those busy road crossings and enjoying a classic Rossogulla!
