This walking tour is a real treat for shoppers as your expert guide leads you through a variety of different markets dedicated to different purposes around Kolkata. The tour begins with a visit to 125 year old Flower Market which is bound in amazing scents at every turn. Feel free to wear a string of jasmine or roses in your hair as you continue onward to the Bara Bazar (literally meaning Big Market) for multipurpose goods! Bara Bazaar is home to everything you could think of buying from clothes to electronics to beauty accessories and even crockery!
This tour is a combination of walk and drive but it’s best to be physically and mentally prepared for the excursion. You find even more multipurpose goods markets as you continue onward to Chitpur Road and New Market. For those who are particularly excited for electronic goods, the Ezra Street market is a boon
At the Mechua Fruit Market, sample some unique Indian fruits and take home some delightful and juicy treats. Continue onward to Kumartuli Idol’s Market and behold the stunning designs and handicraft work that goes into making these beautiful idols. Finally, wrap up your walking tour at College Street Book Market and pick up a bedside read or two before enjoy a comfortable ride back to your hotel
