About This Tour
What makes this Half Day City Tour unique is the way it blends Kolkata’s vibrant sights with the warmth of an English-speaking local companion. Instead of a formal guided tour, you’ll explore the city like a local—authentic, casual, and immersive. In just a few hours, we’ll cover some of Kolkata’s most fascinating spots: the colorful Mallick Ghat Flower Market, iconic Howrah Bridge, serene Jain Temple, artistic Kumartuli (Potter’s Lane), historic College Street and the legendary Indian Coffee House, along with the peaceful Mother House. You’ll also enjoy a drive past colonial landmarks like the Victoria Memorial, Akashvani Bhawan, Dalhousie Square, Raj Bhavan, Writers’ Building, General Post Office, Fort William, and Calcutta High Court. While we skip heavy historical lectures, you’ll receive handy informative handouts for deeper insights. This tour is for travelers who want to feel the pulse of Kolkata—not as tourists, but as part of the city itself.
