We were born on the Hooghly
A Kolkata company with one mission: to make the river the most memorable place in the city to celebrate.
From one boat to Bengal's favourite cruise company
Nauka Royale ('nauka' means boat in Bengali) started with a simple belief: the Hooghly is Kolkata's most beautiful venue, yet few people ever experience it. Today our fleet hosts sunset sailings, candlelit dinners, weddings, corporate galas and Sundarbans expeditions — each run by people who love this river.
