Our agent booked us on a walking tour with Calcutta Walks. It was so informative and interesting that we booked ourselves on another tour the following day. Ritwick is great, very knowledgeable and friendly. It truly is the best way to discover the culture, tastes and sounds of the city.

We organised both a full day tour with car and driver, and separate walking tours. All were excellent. The day tour was a great way to get an overview of Calcutta and our guide Malini had a great knowledge of the city - and a great sense of humour to go with it. Ritwick was our guide for the walking... More

Went with Rithwick last week, group of 11, excellent, strolled back alleys, learnt about local history, visited places we would normally walk past, good pace, good information, good local food. Great at explaining the little things like how they cook chick peas in iron sand! You might think it is expensive by local standards but well worth it and cheap... More

Very knowledgable and communicative guide and a great customised approach to explore Kolkata. Recommended! Only minus is that it's rather expensive compared with other city tours in India.

I have been after two years for the second time on a walk with Manjit - the Confluence walk back then and Delhousie Square this time around. Not only that I learned a lot about Calcutta and got to see things that you may not found in your guide book, but it also felt like coming back to see a... More

We went on 2 walks with Ritwick and they exceeded our expectations. Kolkata is an ideal city to explore on foot, and best done early morning because of the heat. He gave us a fascinating insight to Kolkata, taking us to places we would never have found on our own, and answering our questions about everything to do with life... More

My husband and I did the Royal Enfield bike tour of Calcutta a couple of weeks ago and absolutely loved it. We covered so much of the city within the 4 hours and our 2 explorer friends were so informative and such fun. \my husband is 68 and I am 64 so you can see that this tour is not... More

We did two tours, a bicycle tour in the early morning and a historical tour. We had Ifte for both and both were fantastic. Prices were very reasonable, and the tours fascinating. I definitely recommend the bike tour, it was truly amazing to see the city waking up in the early morning. We also booked a home stay through Ifte... More

Our hotel recommended Calcutta Walks and we were not disappointed. We did the sunset river tour and a full-day city tour with Ritwick (he's the man). For a city that can feel a bit overwhelming, these tours were the only way to get educated and see the sights efficiently and safely. Ritwick is incredibly knowledgable and created two very memorable... More
