Food and photography in Calcutta

Calcutta is a melting pot of cultures, people and history. One of the best ways to really appreciate this is to eat your way through the range of food on offer and take lots of photos along the way. Your guide, a professional photographer and Calcutta local, will take you through the streets of Calcutta in the early morning as the city wakes up.

Starting off with the iconic Chinese breakfast in new Chinatown you will work your way through the patchwork of neighbourhoods that make up Calcutta. En route you will try everything from delicately folded Tibetan Momos to freshly made West Bengali curd being delivered to the shops that very morning. In order to make the most of this experience you will be coached by your guide to take some memorable photos of your experiences in this lively city.
