About
Visiting Kolkata? Have a few hours to spare? Take a walk. Kolkata has something and a bit more to offer to everyone. Immerse into the seemingly chaotic open bazaars or serene churches. Walk through centuries old cemeteries or lazily stroll through narrow lanes. Browse books at College Street and sip coffee at Coffee House. Savour street foods or visit the artisans workshops.

Akash is a great guide and very easy to get along with. He has a detailed knowledge of Kolkata and is a keen and talented photographer who will take you to some of the best photo spots the city has to offer. Highly recommended.

I found my photowalk with Akash to be a great experience for me. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful to me in capturing some great scenes early morning at the Kolkata Flower Market and the the surrounding streets. I would definitely recommend him if you are in Kolkata. If and when I get back, I'll be sure to contact him to see more of this wonderful cite.

If there's one thing you should do, it's Akash's Footsteps Photowalks. I contacted him before arriving in Kolkata and we went out the first night along the river. Simply wonderful, not just the sights, but the people we met along the way. I was immediately hooked and did all the other photo walks, sometimes just the two of us, and some times with a couple of photographer friends who arrived after me. Akash is a local and knows the city inside out and he's also a really nice person. Highly recommended.

I did the Colonial Calcutta with Footsteps Photowalks. The city was all new to me, but not overwhelming as I am familiar with both Delhi and Mumbai. Akash introduced me to Calcutta in a relaxed way. No mass information, no hurry. We were walking the streets, looking at once beautiful buildings - but still beautiful in their own sense. We shot quite a few photos, took time to talk to people, it was hot, crowded and noisy and FUN. Akash would be my number one choice for a guide when I return to Calcutta!
