A perfect introduction to Kolkata

Published on Mar, 2025

My husband and I did this tour on our first day in Kolkata and both agreed it was the best walking tour we had ever experienced (and we travel a lot!). Muzaffar was extremely knowledgeable, interesting and very good company and had impecable English. The stops on the tour took in the city’s rich history and modern day Kolkata life and was the perfect start to our stay in this city which we have already fallen in love with! Thank you Muzaffar for your kindness in helping us get rail tickets and for your thoughtfulness throughout the tour. A memorable day.

The Real Kolkata

Published on Mar, 2025

Sunday is a great day to do this tour. Everything is a little less manic. Our guide, Muzaffar, is very passionate about Kolkata and it shines through. We walked, taxied, bussed, ferried and moto rickshawed our way round the city for about 5 hours. The flower market, an assault on all the senses, was brilliant. The clay statues village was another, only in Kolkata,experience. Great coffee house at the end too.

It really enjoyed the city with a local without a hassle of getting lost and confused. The price was affordable.

Published on Feb, 2025

It was an amazing tour. See the Kalkota from the local point of view. Thank you Muzaffar Khan for showing me Kolkata and arranging a train ticket for my next destination.

So much to enjoy!

Published on Feb, 2025

Muzaffar was a wonderful guide and we were impressed by his extensive knowledge on the history of Calcutta. He had a quiet but engaging presence and we enjoyed his company. There were lots of local treats along the way and stops to relax and take in the local culture. We also appreciated that Muzaffar tailored the walking/ taxi tour to meet our requirements, as well as our physical capacity. We are 74 and 83 and we loved every minute thanks to our fabulous guide. Would we do it again? Absolutely!

Discover Kolkata!

Published on Feb, 2025

This was a fantastic tour! Muzaffar was an excellent guide, with a great deal of knowledge about the history of Kolkata. No question we asked on the tour was too much for him! We had a great time at each of the stops on the tour, and Muzzafar was great at offering to take photos, giving us more time when at certain stops and providing snacks and refreshments along the way. Highlights included the flower marker, breakfast at a local cafe and the extensive history lesson provided at St John’s Church. A must for anyone wanted to discover Kolkata.
