Unforgettable!!! My husband and I have had the best day of the trip to India. We thank our guide T. Mukherjee for making this day in Kolkata unforgettable. He has given us a very interesting private tour. He is the most professional guide we have ever had due to his kindness, his attentiveness, his knowledge of the city which is unbeatable, and the gifts he gave us at the end of the tour. Highly recommended.

Santiniketan and a sleepy car ride This is a lovely trip and a very long day. It worked well for me on my first day in Kolkata as I adjusted to exhaustion and the time difference. It involves a very long car ride alongside rice paddies and small towns (I saw a monkey), with lovely music, a driver and a guide. When you get to Santiniketan, there is a local guide awaiting you. You can walk the outside of the campus, see old buildings and trees and go into a museum. My guide worked hard to ensure my day was exactly what I wanted.

Kolkata Sightseeing I had the pleasure of spending a day with Mr. T. Mukherjee and Mr. Ravi Shankar in Kolkata. Was very positively surprised, when on short notice I requested a change of pickup time and place and immediately got a confirming reply. Mr. Shankar is the man for the dates and facts of all Kolkata adding a bit of local Couleur, while Mr. Mukherjee makes sure you feel good and are comfortable. The tour contained all the must-sees but was adjusted in reference to the order depending on your personal needs (early lunch, coffee break etc). There was always an Option A and Option B and I decided which one I preferred. It was a wonderful day and I can only recommend these 2. The fee is more on the higher side, but I considered it very much worth it! Book them!

Trip to Shanti niketan and city tour We had an absolutely wonderful experience with our tour guide in Kolkata. He was engaging and attentive throughout, and clearly went above and beyond to take care of us. Rather than just sticking to the typical tourist spots, he made sure we experienced the everyday rhythm of local life too — which ended up being one of the highlights of the trip. He had a wonderful way of bringing history to life, sharing the stories behind the places we visited rather than just reciting facts. We enjoyed Ravindra Sangeeta during the ride to Shanti Niketan. During the city tour, He introduced us to charming, nostalgic local cafés instead of steering us toward the usual 5-star spots, which gave us a much more authentic taste of the city. What really stood out was how thoughtful and prepared he was — he carried umbrellas for us, kept snacks in the car, and even had hand sanitizer and face-cleansing towelettes on hand. It’s the kind of attention to detail you don’t expect but deeply appreciate. On top of that, his warmth and compassion toward the local people he interacted with said a lot about his character. Highly recommend him if you’re looking for a guide who treats you like family and gives you a real feel for Kolkata, not just a checklist of sights

Cozy and full of wisdom The experience was extremely gratifying. Visited locations were spectacular. The contracted company is congratulated on your guide (Mr. T. MUKHERJEE), an extremely careful person, concerned with his clients, presenting us with small memories with a lot of meaning. Our driver (Sharma Ji) was also a Mr. Very careful and kind, with good driving. They made you feel quite welcomed and mimicked. Thanks to the 2. Thanks to the company Kolkata Trips for the people who sent us
