Overview

One Day Gangasagar Tour Package from Kolkata

One day Gangasagar Tour, Gangasagar  Fair is the second biggest congregation of Hindu pilgrims after the Kumbha Mela. The Gangasagar Mela is observed annually and only on Sagardwip (Sagar Island). 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. This temple is immersed in legendary tales and is highly revered among devotees.

This island has acres of dazzling silver sand and clear blue sky, Gangasagar is still relatively unknown and thus, unexploited. Gangasagar also finds itself in the poetry of Rabindranath Tagore. The lighthouse at Gangasagar has great views of this beach and is perfect for watching the sunrise and sunset.

Excellent service has been provided by this company.

While we booked with Gangasagar Eco Tourism for travel to Gangasagar & Kolkata but due to the personal reason couldn’t make the tour and had to cancel the tour. Excellent service for cancellation was provided by the agency and we have no hesitation in recommending this company for all travellers and hope to travel with them as soon as we can travel again.
