Calcutta personified - If you are not from Kolkata, this is a trip which you would not want to miss. Yester year trams which must not last long, gives you a feel of the old Calcutta.

Tram tour - Excellent tour, the guide took good care of us and we got to see Kolkata. Trustworthy, the guide picked us up at our hotel on time and dropped us off when the tour was finished. A great tour if you want to see Kolkata for the first time, with all its people and traffic madness.

A perfect way to start your Sunday! - The tour more than lived up to its billing with Mr. Ariff (the tour operator) and his son, Harris, going above and beyond to make my experience both pleasant and memorable. If you're in the city for only a few days and would like to explore the parts of the city that don't (or rarely) find a mention on a guidebook or a typical travel itinerary then give this tour a try, you'll thank me later.

We can not review the tour, it didn't happen! - Our tour was cancelled due to a cyclone and the prime ministers visit to the area. We have requested a refund of $180 and have heard NOTHING back from TripAdvisor.

VERY DISAPPOINTED - We paid $194 for the tour, however it was cancelled due to a cyclone and the Prime ministers visit to Kolkata. We have contacted TripAdvisor for a refund, they told us to deal directly with the tour operator who of course is not contactable now that he has been paid. We are finding it very hard to contact TripAdvisor, they are not helpful at all. VERY DISAPPOINTED.
