The Integrated City Pass promises a tourist hassle-free travel to over 25 tourist attractions in the city over a period of seven days.
The West Bengal Tourism Department introduced the "Discover Kolkata" pass in December 2022 in an effort to attract tourists to the city's many tourist attractions. However, a large number of people visiting the city from across the country told ANI that they were not familiar with the Kolkata Pass.
As of now, a visitor with the City Pass gets entry to the Victoria Memorial, Indian Museum, Netaji Bhavan, Nikko Park, Rabindra Tirtha, State Archaeological Museum and Kolkata Police Museum.
Nazrul Teerth, Aircraft Museum, Eco Park, Alipore Museum, Mother's Wax Museum, Natya Shodh Sansthan Nehru Children's Museum, Birla Industrial and Technological Museum, Smaranika Tram Museum, Asiatic Society, Swami Vivekananda's ancestral home, Science City, Kolkata Port Maritime Heritage Museum , and Gandhi Ashram are some examples.
A traveler can visit over 25 tourist attractions in the city without any hassle with the Integrated City Pass over the course of seven days. Due to the QR code-based pass, visitors will not have to wait in queues to get tickets to see some of Kolkata's most famous landmarks.
Visitors urge the Mamata Banerjee administration in West Bengal to set up an e-messaging system so that they can get timely information about new services and facilities introduced in Kolkata to attract tourists.
The validity period is seven consecutive days from the day you visit an attraction and continuing till that day. A pass can also be purchased at a future date.
There are three types of passes: North Zone, South Zone and All Zone. For Indian citizens, the Northern Sector pass costs ₹95 for a child and ₹350 for an adult. The South Zone Pass costs ₹65 for a child and ₹190 for an adult. The cost of an all zone pass is ₹160 for a child and ₹540 for an adult.
The Discover Kolkata e-pass costs more for foreign nationals, while SAARC nationals get relatively cheaper rates.
