Get to know more about Sunderbans before booking your tour packages

Located at the convulsion of the grand river Ganga and the Bay of Bengal, Sundarban is the land in between. It is where the freshwater flowing with gusto from the Ganges and Brahmaputra meets the magnificent Bay of Bengal. The complexities of life here at Sundarbans thrive in the serenity and detachment from the rest of the world. A Sundarban tour can truly prove to be a great break from daily life.

Nestled deep into the delta, Sundarban is a place teeming with life. Diverse species of several categories belong to this region. Apart from the Royal Bengal tiger, there are other animals that you can come across on your Sundarban holiday package as well. Macaques, Indian Grey Mongoose, Leopard Cats, Flying Fox, Fishing Cats, Chital, and Pangolin are some of the animals you might spot with your Sundarbans National Park tour package.

When in the area, a Sundarban National Park tour is the most popular activity to partake in. The forest reserve of Sundarban is home to a number of endangered species, including the mighty Bengal tiger. With its biodiversity, Sundarban National Park is at the forefront of the conservation movement in the country.

The quaint forests of Sundarban harbour a plethora of lifeforms that thrive in this natural haven. The mangroves and forests of Sundarbans have for ages been considered as a hub for flora and fauna of the region, and if you are lucky enough, you might even spot the royal Bengal tiger amongst the shaded forest canopies as you explore with your Sundarban tour package booked online.

Experience Sundarban

With a Sundarban tour package, you will get to discover the enchanted forests and misty mangroves that are famed all over the world. The people indigenous to Sundarban are forest dwellers of the region and they have their own culture that reflects the enigmatic mangroves.

With Sundarbans National Park tour packages one can witness the natural beauty of the forests by hiking through the coastal regions, but the best way to experience the area to its fullest is by the mode of boat safaris.

Since the entire area is spread across over a large landscape of mangroves, a traditional safari just won’t do. A boat safari takes you on a Sundarban National Park tour through the deepest of the forest’s regions and as you traverse through the dense mangroves, you enter a different world altogether.

You can choose from a variety of tour packages from Veena World and select one that fits your budget perfectly for a memorable trip.

Things to Do in Sundarban

The following experiences are some that you must not miss out on at any cost on your Sundarban National Park tour:

• Visit the watchtowers: 

  The Sundarban National Park tour is famous for its animal sightings and it is from the watchtowers where you can get the best views of the forest. There are several watchtowers constructed throughout the national park region, and based on the animal sightings they are famous for, you can plan to visit them. Sudhanyakhali and Jhingekali are the most famous for spotting tigers and crocodiles in their natural habitat, whereas Sajnekhali is a tower famous for viewing the natural beauty of the forest and for spotting a few exotic bird species, such as the kingfisher, the white-bellied sea eagle, and the pelican. Other sightings from these watchtowers include the popular Sundarban tourist spots like the ancient Shiva temple in the forests and the Bono Bibi temple, which was made to honour the goddess of the forest.

• Go for a boat safari: 

  A boat safari is a practical and exciting way to travel across the mangroves and should most definitely be a part of your Sundarbans National Park tour packages. The boat safari takes you across the streams in the delta that bend across the mangrove forest and swirl into the heart of the national park. One can expect to spot wildlife on their safari and experience the serenity of the Sundarbans first-hand. The calming experience of travelling through the streams of the delta is unmatched when it comes to feeling peace in the heart of nature.

• Indulge in local culture: 

  The local indigenous culture of the Sundarbans is rich and diverse. The people from the region are forest dwellers and hence live a rather simple life that is isolated from the rest of the world. The tribes in the region have their own deities, cultural practices, and even cuisine. The local food, although modest, is a great reflection of the region's culture, calm and complex at the same time.

Bono Bibi is a goddess that is worshipped in this region, and there are several temples made in her honour. One could experience this unique culture only by delving into the depths of the region. You can also find a Shiva temple in the forest. Experiencing the culture should not go amiss in your Sundarban tour package at any cost.
