This excursion is equally enjoyable for those who are and are not photographers. It particularly resonates with photographers, but you don’t need a high-end camera to enjoy it.
If Bengali festivities such as Durga Puja and Kali Puja have left you in awe of their strikingly beautiful deities and sparked your interest in the making process, this tour will be a treat for you. We will escort you to the traditional potters’ area in the northern part of the city. This district not only caters to the city’s need for divine figures but also exports a significant number of its creations. It’s been acknowledged as one of Calcutta’s seven marvels – a spectacle you wouldn’t want to miss when in the city. It’s accessible most of the year, with some exceptions. Consult us for further details!
IMPORTANT: As a standard, we need at least 2 participants to conduct the tour, unless it’s been pre-arranged. If you’re a solo traveler, please get in touch with us.
