   Our driver will pick you up from your central Kolkata hotel along with your English Speaking Guide.. Upon arrival at the neighbourhood commonly referred to as a Slum, you will take a walk to experience how a part of the population in Kolkata live. Our aim is to show you that such a neighbourhood is not only about the poverty, unpleasantness and general deficiencies.   You will get to know a wide variety of small scale enterprises, from rubber factories, leather bag making, recycling of plastic, small shops and open air laundry. Walking through this part of Kolkata, you will find smiling faces and friendly folks in spite of the hardships they face. The walk will enhance your understanding of components of modern Indian society. Once your tour will be finished, enjoy lunch at a local restaurant (Under Own Expenses).    After lunch, you will be dropped back to your hotel in central Kolkata by our driver.
