A great company as a travellers friend - As an older female travelling solo I found the communication before and during the trip excellent. The pick ups were on time and the guides well informed and enthusiastic. I visited so many places of interest, historical, religious and local. I learnt a lot and found the whole experience enjoyable from beginning to end.

Knowledgeable and interesting guide - We just returned from a wonderful trip ending in Kolkata. While there, we booked the guide services of Anirban through Bratati for two whole days. During these days we covered all that we wanted to see in Kolkata. Anirban was very knowledgeable and interesting and it enhanced the sight-seeing experience. We learnt a lot about the city and its storied past. The drivers were good too. Would highly recommend their services. At the end, Bratati gifted me a souvenir of Kolkata which was very sweet. Thanks for a wonderful introduction to your city 🥰

Oh Calcutta! A Delightful Pre Pujo Visit! - Doing the Calcutta city tour with Ms Bratati Saha turned out to be far more rewarding than we had anticipated. Ms Saha is knowledgable, articulate and excellent company. The historical and anecdotal nuggets that she shared were a delight to listen to and greatly enriched our trip. She was punctual and proceeded to show us the city in a relaxed, unhurried pace. Her personal connect with the keepers of Calcutta's history ensured that we could visit each place without a hitch. She would be our go to guide for not just Calcutta but places around Calcutta too.

IMMACULATE EXPERIENCE EXTRAORDINAIRE - IT WAS INDEED OUR GOOD FORTUNE THAT WE WERE ABLE TO HAVE THE PLEASURE OF SEEING CALCUTTA THRU A NATIVE'S, INSIGHTFUL EYES ! EVEN THOUGH BROTOTI CAME HIGHLY RECOMMENDED BY CLOSE FAMILY, WE WERE AMAZED WITH HER CHOICE OF LOCATIONS AND HER GRASP OF LOCAL FOLKLORE AND HISTORY. WE VISITED THE JAIN TEMPLE, MARBLE PALACE, KUMHAARTOLI, ST. JOHNS, VICTORIA ETC APART FROM SOME OF THE TOTALLY UNKNOWN GEMS OF CALCUTTA. I WISH IT NEVER ENDED. WILL SURELY BE BACK WITH HER AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

My exceptional guide in Kolkata India - The experience was exceptional. My guide listen to me and what I wanted to do. He took me to places I wanted to see and also places I didn’t know that I wanted to see. It turned out really great and I would absolutely use that guide again. My guide name was Anirban Dey. He and his wife Bratati are both government licensed guides. It made my time in Kolkata so much more productive and fun
