3 Days Kolkata Heritage & Culture Tour: The Full Picture
Kolkata, the capital of West Bengal and once the seat of British India, is one of the country's most characterful cities. The grand Victoria Memorial, the iron span of Howrah Bridge, the riverside temples and the legendary intellectual and artistic life give it a depth few Indian cities match.
This 3 day Kolkata heritage package from Malaysia is private throughout. Your vehicle and driver guide take you through the colonial core, the river ghats, the flower market and the sweet shops that Bengalis are rightly proud of, all at your own pace.

Why Travellers from Malaysia Love This Trip

Kolkata Heritage Tour from Malaysia
Kolkata is a city for travellers who love history, culture and food over checklists. The colonial architecture, the river life and the Bengali intellectual tradition give it a character that lingers long after you leave.
This private package lets you cover the Victoria Memorial, Howrah Bridge, the temples and the markets at your own pace, with a guide who knows the city's stories and its best sweet shops.
Kolkata is also the gateway to East India and the eastern Himalayas, including Sikkim and Darjeeling.
What to Eat in Kolkata
Bengali food is a revelation. Fish curries, the street-food classic kathi roll, puchka (the local pani puri), and an entire universe of sweets built around chhena (fresh cheese).
Rasgulla, sandesh and mishti doi are non-negotiable. Your guide will point you to the century-old sweet shops where Bengalis themselves queue up.
