SUNDARBAN 2 NIGHT 3 DAYS NETIDHOPANI TOUR ITINERARY
Day 1: Start of Netidhopani Tour for 2N 3D : Kolkata to Sonakhali/Godhkhali, Sundarban
Sundarban Netidhopani Bonnie Camp-2 Night 3 Days Tour starts with your pickup from Kolkata in a shared vehicle and drive to Sonaklhali/Godhkhali, a journey of about 3 hrs. Walk the distance from the parking lot to the Godhkhali jetty. Thereafter board the waiting Launch and your Godhkhali Jetty to Sundarban tour starts. Your first visit would be through 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 in Sundarbans whenever you are in the Forests of Sundarbans.
The journey from the Godhkhali Jetty to Sundarbans would take you down the rivers Hogil, Gomar, Durgaduni and Gumdi in about an hour you would reach Sajnekhali.
Sajnekhali Watch Tower 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 Netidhopani Bonnie Camp-2 night 3 days Tour from Kolkata.
After obtaining requisite Forest permission, we view wildlife from the Sajnekhali watchtower. We 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 Sundarban Tour package, you would stay on the boat itself, while others would move to the hotel/resort.

Day 2: Sundarban boat Safari and visit to the Canopy walk and Dobanki
The second day of your Sundarban Tour Package 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), the Netai River and reach the Netidhopani Watchtower. This tour can also be christened a Sundarban Core Area Tour as visit to Netidhopani watchtower is a restricted area and falls just around the Core Area of the Sundarbans Tiger RESERVE.
First of all, visit the watch tower of Sudhanyakhali. Food would be prepared and served on the launch itself. 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 2 night 3 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 Netidhopani Watchtower is one of the most important watchtowers situated close to the Core area of the Sundarban Tiger Reserve. Entry to this Watch Tower is highly restricted and controlled by the Sundarban Tiger Reserve authorities as it lies in the Core area of the Sundarban Tiger Reserve and only 13 boats are granted permission to visit Netidhopani watchtower everyday. The Netidhopani watchtower offers a very high probability of sighting wild animals along with the Royal Bengal tiger as lesser number of boats sail on the routes along the Netidhopani Watch Tower. Apart from the Netidhopani watch Tower, the Camp also has the ruins of a 400 year old Shiva Temple. There is also a sweet water pond. This watch tower has a capacity to host 20 persons at a time. It is also believed that there is a road on the extreme right of the forest which was built by King Pratapaditya to guard the coastal area. It is now covered with mud. The silence of the place would charm you.
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 Canopy Walk.
Pay a visit to the most visited Dobanki Canopy Walk at the Sundarban Tiger Reserve, and you'll soon discover why this beautiful place continues to be such a draw for visitors visiting the Sundarban Tiger Reserve.The Canopy Walk at Dobanki attracts 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. Finally we would proceed towards the Netibhopani Watchtower. The Netidhopani Watch Tower lies on the edge of the Buffer and Core Area of the Sundarbans National Park. This watch tower has a capacity to host 20 persons at a time. The serenity of the Netidhopani Watch Tower is worth enjoying and offers a lot of bird watching options.
There is also a sweet water pond at Netidhopani. This watchtower offers one a view of the ruins of a 400 year old Shiva Temple, popularly called the Netidhopani Temple. It is also believed that there is a road on the extreme right of the forest which was built by King Pratapaditya to guard the coastal area. It is now covered with earth. A lot of archaeological finds, mainly terracotta wares have been found in and around the Netidhopani Temple and are displayed as specimens at Netidhopani. We would wrap up the day after the visit to this watchtower.
Overnight stay would be at the resort/Boat as per your prior selection.
Meal plan : Breakfast (Yes) | Lunch (Yes) | Dinner (Yes)
Day 3: Visit the Sundarbans National Park and The Sundarbans Delta
The third day of your Sundarbans Tour package involves a half day cruise through the rivers and narrow creeks of the Sundarbans Biosphere Reserve and the Sundarbans Delta.
We start around 6:00 hrs and depart for the Sundarkathi Wild Life Watch Tower, now called the Bonnie Camp. The view from the Sundarkathi watch Tower fills one with admiration besides giving one the only chance to step out of the boat during the entire day’s trip. The Bonnie Camp is one of the most beautiful watchtowers in the Sundarbans. This watchtower, 50 feet high, is the highest watchtower in the Sundarbans. Like all other watchtowers of Sundarbans, there is a sweet-water pond where the wild animals of Sundarbans frequent throughout the day. The aerial view of the forest from the top the watchtower at Bonnie Camp is absolutely fabulous and one gets the feeling of being marooned on a desolate island. The vastness of the forest from the watchtower crisscrossed with rivulets and creeks all around is a treat for the eyes.
After lunch on the boat, we depart for Godhkhali/Sonakhali/Jharkhali and reach Godhkhali/Sonakhali?jharkhali at 13:30 p.m. From Godhkhali/Sonakhali, we transfer you to Kolkata.

Sundarban day Tour
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.

Awesome, IN ONE WORD
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.

A fun filled trip to Sundarbans
I along with my friends were sitting thinking about where to go over this weekend. Then an idea stuck our minds and we planned a random trip to Sunderban Tiger Reserve (although we didn't spot a single tiger there, depends on luck, no offence for that). The plan was spontaneous so we started searching for online travel agencies and came across India Beacons Sojourn, saw its rating and immediately called them. We discussed about our timing constraints and were suggested a One Day Trip to Sundarbans by India Beacons and consequently the itinerary was mailed to us and we finalized the trip.
Then came the next day, 'The Trip Day'. As promised by India Beacons, we were provided a 17 seater air conditioned Force Traveller although we were 13 people only. Started our journey at around 6 am and reached our destination at around 8:45 am. It was a comfortable journey.
Now comes the visit experience. On reaching Sundarbans we were taken to a 6 cylinder steamer equipped with all the amenities like washrooms, restrooms, etc. The owner of this agency, Mr. Sandeep met us and introduced us to our tour guide for the day. We were then served a sumptuous breakfast on the steamer itself along with a beverage as promised in our itinerary. Then we were all set to visit our first watch tower for the day i.e. Sajnekhali wildlife sanctuary and it took us around 1.5 hours to reach there. Visited the watchtower and were back on our steamer to visit the second watchtower. On our way to the second watchtower, we were served lunch on the steamer itself and again it was very delicious and satiating to our appetite, a big thumbs up to India Beacons for that.
After around 1 hour we reached our second watchtower i.e. Sudhanyakhali, spent some time there and finally started our return journey. It took us around 1.5 hours to reach our base through steamer. Were also served evening tea on the steamer itself which was in the itinerary also. Finally reached our base at 5 in the evening, started our return trip to our place through the same Traveller.
Overall it was an excellent trip and the service provided by India Beacons was marvelous and fulfilled all our expectations. A big thumbs up to them.
Ratings:
- Cost effectiveness : 5/5
- Behaviour of staff : 5/5
- Food and beverages : 5/5
- Sticking to itinerary : 5/5
- Knowledge of tour guide : 5/5
Forgot to mention that on our request, we were provided with playing cards on the steamer itself by the agency. So anyone booking their next trip or holiday can rely on India Beacons blindly and it will be a hassle free experience.

Our experience of visiting Sundarbans with India Beacons Sojourn was extremely pleasant and joyous. We had just a day at Kolkata before we left for Varanasi and we managed to do the Sundarban Day tour. Not much in terms of animal sighting, but the scenic beauty of sundarbans enamoured us.
Food was excellent and tasty and I would like to mention that right from our pickup from Shamilton Hotel till our return, we were very well taken care by Mr. Sandeep and his team. Would recommend their services.
