Overview

Tour works for both non-photographers and photographers alike. Loved by photographers. No fancy cameras needed.

If you have been amazed at the amazingly beautiful idols you see during the Bengali festivals like Durga Puja and Kali Puja and always wanted to get behind the scenes then you will love this tour. This tour takes you to the traditional potters’ quarter in the north of the city. Not only does this neighborhood supply Gods and Goddess to the city but many of their creations are exported. It has been termed as one of the seven wonders of Calcutta and thus being in the city you surely cannot give it a miss. Available through the year barring a few weeks. Check with us!

PLEASE NOTE: Unless there is a scheduled tour, the minimum requirement for the tour is 2 pax. If you are single traveller, please message us.

P.S. Drop us a message if the mentioned start times do not work for you. Maybe we can schedule according to your convenience.
