This Sundarban 3 night Tour from Kolkata would give you a comprehensive coverage. In this Sundarban 3 night Tour from Kolkata, we cover a good area of the Sundarbans Mangrove forest, the Sundarbans Delta as well as the Sundarban National park. We visit as many as FIVE top attractions, ie the watch towers of Sajnekhali, Sudhanyakhali, Burirdabri, Jhingakhali and Dobanki. The Sundarban Tour 3N 4D is one of India Beacons best tours. 

 

Day 1 : Transfer from Kolkata to Sundarbans National Park. Visit Sajnekhali Watch Tower.

Day 2 : Visit the Watch towers of Burirdabri & Jhingakhali.

Sundarban 3N 4D tour package from Kolkata starts with your pickup from Kolkata in a shared vehicle and drive to Sonaklhali/Godhkhali. This journey is of about 3 hrs. Walk the distance from the parking lot to the Godhkhali jetty. Thereafter board the waiting Launch. Your Sundarban Tour 3N 4D tour starts. Your first visit would be to the Sajnekhali Watch Tower, located on the Sunderbans Islands.

 

What makes the Sundarbans unique is that unlike other Tiger Reserves in India or abroad, there is no Jeep safari or Elephant Safari in Sundarbans. Here spotting the tiger is through boat journey. You can choose to call it a Boat Safari or a Marine Safari. In fact you are always on the Boat Safari for the Sundarban Tour 3N 4D, whenever you are in the Forests of Sundarbans.

 

The journey from the jetty would take you down the rivers Hogil, Gomar, Durgaduni and Gumdi in about an hour you would reach Sajnekhali. Sajnekhali is the first point of disembarkation from the boat for the Sundarban 3N 4D tour package from Kolkata.

Sajnekhali is the Headquarter of the Sundarbans National Park. It is the most visited place in the Sundarbans National Park. The Sajnekhali Eco Tourism Range encompasses the Sajnekhali Mangrove Interpretation Centre, the Sajnekhali Museum and the Batagur Baska Tortoise pond at Sajnekhali. A visit to the Sajnekhali Watch Tower is part of the Sundarban 3N 4D tour package from Kolkata.

After obtaining requisite Forest permission, we view wildlife from the Sajnekhali watchtower. Also visit the Sajnekhali Museum, the River Terrapin Hatching Pond and the Mangrove Interpretation Centre.

 

After watching the sunset from your motorboat, we move to the resort for overnight stay. In case you have opted for night stay on the boat for your Sundarbans Tour package, you would stay on the boat itself, while others would move to the hotel/resort. 

Optional activity involves an entertaining evening of Folk Dance “Banbibi Pala"(Optional) or Baul geet. For the Sundarban Tour package, dinner and night halt would at the forest resort/boat as per prior selection. Overnight at Sundarbans.

 

The second day of your Sundarban Tour involves venturing and visiting the Eastern fringe of the Indian Sundarbans. This is often referred to as the Burirdabri Circuit and comprises, the visit to the two watchtowers of Burirdabri and  Jhingakhali and passing along the Morichjhapi forest and the Jhila Forest Beat. Visit to the Burirdabri Circuit is the uniqueness of the Sundarban Tour 3N 4D.

We would go till Burirdabri, which is the farthest watchtower on the Indian Side, before the Bangladesh Sundarbans starts. The river Raimangal divides India and Bangladesh. From the Burirdabri Watchtower, apart from the Indian Sundarbans, you can also view the Bangladesh Sundarbans. The Bangladesh Sundarbans lies just on the opposite side of the river. This whole day river cruise will be a mix of sailing through both broad rivers as well as the narrow creeks. This journey would be interspersed  with tiny village dotted on one side and the Sundarbans National Park on the other side. 

.

Burirdabri in Sunderbans National Park is famous for its watchtower, a mudwalk and mangrove cage trail leading to a viewpoint known as the Raimongal view point. Visit the watch tower at Burirdabri camp. 

Thereafter visit the watchtower of Jhingakhali, which offers an exiting view of the jungle. The Jhingakhali Watchtower overlooks an untamed forestscape. Enjoy the sights and sounds of nature resplendent in her pristine beauty.This watchtower is among the ones to be located on the Eastern most fringe of the Indian part of Sundarbans. It falls in the Bashirhat Range of the Jhingekhali Beat of Sundarbans. The watchtower has a capacity to accommodate 20 persons at a time. This watchtower is often overlooked by tour operators and tourists because of its distance from the Sajnekhali and Dayapur area. Since the movement of tourists is less in this area, the scenic beauty of this place is well preserved and the chances of sighting tigers, as per our opinion, are relatively more than the other watchtowers. This watchtower, like some other watchtowers, has observation lines and sweet water pond for observing the wildlife. There is also a BanoBibi temple within the compound of the Watchtower as well. Apart from other birds that can be sighted, the sighting of Brahmini Kites is very much likely from this watchtower.

In the evening, return for your overnight stay either at the resort/Boat as per your prior selection.

 

The third day of your Sundarban Tour involves a full day cruise through the rivers and narrow creeks of the Sundarbans National Park as well as the World’s Largest Mangrove Forest and a lovely birding experience. Food for the entire length of your Sundarbans Tour package would be prepared and served from the motor boat.

 

Cross through the numerous creeks and canals of the Sunderban Tiger Reserve, notable among them being the Bonobibi Bharani, the Sundar Khali, Gazikhali, Chora Gazi Khali, Deul Bharani, the Pancha Mukhani (5 River junction) and proceed to visit the Dobanki Watchtower and the Dobanki Canopy Walk. 

Pay a visit to the most visited Dobanki Canopy Walk at the Sundarbans Tiger Reserve, and you'll soon discover why this beautiful place continues to be such a draw for visitors visiting the Sundarbans Tiger Reserve.The Canopy Walk at Dobanki draws the maximum crowd and a lot of wildlife can be sighted from the Dobanki Watch Tower. Also the Canopy Walk at Dobanki gives you an opportunity to view wildlife from a netted enclosure.

 

Thereafter, enjoy the thrill of cruising deep in the “Indian Amazon” as India Beacons calls it and also around the islands of the Sundarban Tiger Project Area. Let yourself be guided by our Naturalist and Guide to view the Mangrove forest from close quarters, deep inside the creeks and return in the evening to the resort. Overnight stay would be at the resort/Boat as per your prior selection.

 

Enjoy a lovely birding experience as you start early in the morning. The third day of your Sundarbans Tour package involves a half day cruise through the rivers and narrow creeks of the Sunderbans National Park and the Sundarbans Delta.

 

Start after bed tea and visit the watch tower of Sudhanyakhali. Food would be prepared and served on the launch itself. On the second day of your Sundarban Tour, you would visit the Sudhanyakhali Watch Tower. 

Sudhanyakhali Watch Tower is one of the must see places of the Sundarban Nation park. The Sudhanyakhali watch Tower of the sundarbans Tiger Reserve is visited by most of the Tourists as part of the Sundarbans Tour 3 night 4 days Package. The Sudhanyakhali watch tower has a capacity to host 30 tourists at a time. A lot of wildlife of the Sundarbans National Park are sighted from here. In fact, the sweet water pond at Sudhanyakhali attracts a lot of wild animals and offers you the chance to view wildlife from close quarters.

The overall management of the entire tour covering vehicle, boat, mouthwatering food, cultural display by the locals, beautiful resort and above all the beauty of Sundarban was a rare experience for us and we will prefer to go again and again under the supervision of India Beacons Sojourn.

Awesome experience. The food was simply too good. The launch is very well equipped with all necessary amenities and the views from the launch during the trip were mesmerizing.The best part were the launch staff who were always present with a smile.The guide was extremely conversant with the entire locality.Their behavior made the launch journey even better.

We preferred the AC room accommodation, though the rooms in the boat for a night stay were equally good.A perfectly crafted weekend family trip to Sunderbans is sure to ensue with India Beacons. Definitely the drive to spot the Royal Bengal will lure us again to the Bans which is wonder-striking in it's beauty, vastness and uniqueness.

India Beacons Sojourn Team nicely maintained their promises for their Sundarbans day Tour. Punctual arrival of vehicle, good behaviour of driver, nice food, endearing staff on the boat, very tasty food to suit our North Indian taste buds and well maintained boat - we had it all. Keep up the good work. 

Only dampener was the weather. It rained so much that we hardly had any chance of seeing the tiger. Overall a great Sundarbans Day Trip in the end

The arrangement made was excellent from the word go. Comfortable tempo traveller with good breakfast and juice. Porters helped us with our bags to board the boat. Bhola da our Captain was an expert at navigation and very knowledgeable of wildlife. Boat staff were courteous and food was yummy. Saptarshi our naturalist/ guide was patient and knowledgable ready to answer our silliest of question. The night stay was surprisingly comfortable in a very nice and spacious room. Locals put up Bon Bibi play and Baul songs in the evening during snacks n tea followed by sumptuous dinner. 

Now one must be thinking it’s a very comfortable stay but what about photography and wildlife...so coming to the best part..we saw the mighty Royal Bengal Tiger and what a marvellous sighting along with several birds and animals ... jungle cat, brown winged kingfisher, white collared kingfisher, black caped kingfisher, common kingfisher, otters, crocodiles and many more. Thanks to Sandeep Da and team for this unforgettable experience.

Sundarban 3N 4D tour package from Kolkata

India Beacons Sojourn Team really lived up to our expectations for the Sundarban 3 nights Tour from Kolkata. We had a lot of apprehension as regards our Jain food for our Sundarban Tour 3 night 4 Days and had made the same clear to Mr. Sandeep. However the 3N 4D Sundarban Tour went beyond our expectation.

We had excellent food and the guide Mr. Arun was a knowledgeable and courteous person. We had very good sighting and a comprehensive coverage for the Sundarban 3 nights Tour from Kolkata. We would definitely recommend the same.

95% for the Sundarban Tour 3 night 4 Days. No rooms for Complain. Once again would like to thank the boat crew for this wonderful Sundarban Tour 3 night 4 Days
