About this activity
Piyali BHi, I love exploring new places and introducing unique trends to my guests, and this quest of mine has led me to Kolkata. Join me on this tour as I take you through the busy shopping streets to find the best bargains.
DetailsThis activity lets you explore the bustling bazaars and streets of Kolkata where one can unearth its well-preserved history and cultural ethnicity. Begin the walk from spice or masala market and explore India's secret to indulgent cuisines. Then head to Burra Bazaar and splurge in its many textiles, handicrafts, linens and groceries with a pitstop at the fruit market at Machua. Continue shopping at College Street of Kolkata, famed for its book collection. Break for coffee/tea at a vintage house here and proceed to Kumortuli, the potter's colony of Kolkata. Witness how clay idols of gods are crafted elegantly, while the host takes you through their cultural significance before concluding the 4-hour walk.
Places of interest: Spice market, Burra Bazaar, Fruit market in Machua, College Street and Kumortuli.
Tip: Wear comfortable walking shoes and stay hydrated.
Note:
• A Viator/TripAdvisor booking confirmation sent at the time of confirmation is not the official ticket.
