Kolkata/formerly known as Calcutta, the capital of West Bengal is one of the country’s youngest cities. As a harbour city and the capital of British India from 1772 to 1911,it drew people from all across the country. The city truly endures and remains true to its character i.e. culturally vibrant and diverse. From worshipping Mother Durga to eating mouth-watery roshgullas, people often travel taking a One-Day Trip from Kolkata to Gangasagar by Car to enjoy the unusual beaches. In the old days, people had to travel by boats all the way from Kolkata to Gangasagar. Today, with our one day tour you can reach Gangasagar in no time and experience the dazzling silver sand and enjoy the breeze. The way to Gangasagar is also a treat to watch with beautiful huts neatly built with a side of little ponds. Watching hundreds of pilgrims taking a dip in the sea will give you goosebumps and encourage you to take a dip into the holy water yourself. The holy dip is assumed to purify people from their sins and provide them Moksha – freedom from the afterlife. Every year during Makar Sankranti pilgrims from all over the country come to take a holy dip at the confluence of the river Ganges and Bay of Bengal, followed by offering prayers at the Kapil Muni Temple.
