On our recent trip to Kolkata, we chose a local tour company for a day trip to Shantiniketan. The journey was seamless, and the guide was knowledgeable, sharing insights about Tagore’s life and the university. The cultural performances we witnessed there were truly captivating. A well-spent day immersed in Bengal’s rich cultural heritage.
