British Raj Walk - Kolkata
Published on Jan, 2025
I had a great walk with Bratati as my guide. She picked me up from my hotel exactly as agreed and then we spent 3 really informative hours exploring the Victoria Monument and Dalhousie Square. I learnt a great deal about the history and architecture of the places we visited - and Bratati had many colourful stories she used to really bring the place to life. I would certainly recommend this experience.
An absolute must for anyone wanting an overview of the British Colonial period.

The tour encompassed a variety of historical buildings during the age of British colonialism and the guide, Bratati, was instrumental in conveying her knowledge on the subject. Her English is wonderful.
