About Sundarbans

The Sundarbans, at the mouth of the Ganga and Brahmaputra, is the largest mangrove forest in the world and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

You explore by boat through tidal creeks, stopping at forest watchtowers to spot spotted deer, crocodiles, monitor lizards, kingfishers and — with luck — the elusive Royal Bengal tiger.
