Where To Go

West Bengal

West Bengal runs from the coast to the hills. Kolkata served as the capital of British India for well over a century. That changed in 1911. Old mansions and trams still fill its streets. The city is also a literary capital. Poet Rabindranath Tagore called it home. He won the Nobel Prize in 1913. North of the plains, Darjeeling climbs into tea country. A small train still climbs its tracks. UNESCO named that railway a World Heritage Site. A private guide links both worlds for you.

Kolkata
