Discover the best of Kolkata on this guided excursion to iconic landmarks like the Victoria memorial and The National Library. Start the tour by visiting the imposing white marble Victoria Memorial, built by the British in 1921, modelled on the Taj Mahal offering tree-lined walks in splendid parks and houses a number of statues of eminent people including that of Queen Victoria.
To the east of the Memorial is St Paul’s Cathedral, one of the most important churches of India with its impressive stained glass windows.
