Experience Kolkata’s best in one day! Explore the city like a true local, soaking in its vibrant culture, lively streets, hidden gems, and authentic flavors, all while enjoying a smooth, guided ride.
Begin your journey with a morning hotel pickup and head to the revered Kalighat Kali Temple, one of the 51 Shakti Peethas. Feel the spiritual energy as you explore this ancient temple, deeply embedded in Kolkata’s identity.

Next, head to the scenic Princep Memorial & Riverfront, an architectural gem from the British era, offering stunning views of the Vidyasagar Setu. Walk along the riverside promenade and soak in the peaceful atmosphere before continuing your exploration.

Step into the world of literature and art at Rabindra Nath Tagore’s House, now a museum showcasing the life and works of India’s first Nobel Laureate. Gain insights into the poet’s contributions to literature, philosophy, and music.

Then, visit Netaji Subhash Bose Home & Museum, where the legendary freedom fighter once lived. This museum provides a fascinating look at Netaji’s life, his role in India’s independence movement, and the historic significance of his residence.

Midway through your journey, pause for an authentic Bengali lunch at a local restaurant. Enjoy a choice of a vegetarian meal, featuring dishes like Shukto, Chholar Dal, and Mishti Doi, or a non-vegetarian meal, including delicacies like Kosha Mangsho (spiced mutton curry), Shorshe Ilish (hilsa fish in mustard sauce), and Chingri Malai Curry (prawns cooked in coconut milk).

After lunch, continue to Birla Planetarium, one of the largest planetariums in Asia. Explore its fascinating exhibits and learn about the universe through interactive displays and shows.

Visit The Mother House of the Missionaries of Charity, the home and tomb of Mother Teresa. Experience the quiet simplicity of the place where the Nobel Peace Prize winner lived and dedicated her life to humanitarian service.

Admire the grandeur of St. Paul’s Cathedral, a stunning Indo-Gothic church that stands as an architectural masterpiece. Walk through its beautifully adorned interiors and experience its serene ambiance.

Later, head to Dakhineshwar Kali Temple, another significant religious site in Kolkata, dedicated to Goddess Kali. Located along the Hooghly River, this temple is known for its strong spiritual presence and association with Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa.

Complete your journey with a visit to Belur Math, the headquarters of the Ramakrishna Mission. A peaceful retreat, this spiritual hub showcases a harmonious blend of Hindu, Islamic, and Christian architectural styles, reflecting the ideals of Swami Vivekananda.

Throughout the day, enjoy a drive past Kolkata’s iconic landmarks, including the General Post Office, Shaheed Minar, Eden Gardens, Howrah Station, Writers’ Building, Maidan, Town Hall, and Fort William.
