This was another great tour from 5 Senses. Anibal organised a fantastic day for us visiting former European colonies in towns and cities outside Kolkata. He picked us up from our hotel in Kolkata on time and in the car he was brimming with information about what we were going to see during the day. Anibal’s tour provided a fantastic insight into the history of the Portuguese, Danish and French in the area. He knew the best places to show us and also organised a delicious Bengali lunch. It was a real joy to spend the day in the company of Anibal. Thanks for another great trip, 5 Senses.

More for people interested in local history. Not far from Kolkata but a number of the targets of the tour were closed. Anirban was a great guide and we had a good driver. 5Senses is very professional.

It was a very good tour of the city as we walked like a local among the streets of Kolkata and experienced it from street level. A good tour for anyone who has a limited time in Kolkata, but would like to gain the most experience.
