It is a land of twisted rivers, dense mangrove forests and amazing wildlife to be explored in the Sundarbans. It does not matter wether you are in search of the Royal Bengal Tiger, colourful birds flying overhead, or interesting animals in their natural habitat, every time you venture on one of its serene waters, you find yourself on an adventure of a lifetime. The safaris in the Sundarban are not just a tour of the area but an immersion in untouched nature, amazing scenery and a lifestyle that is distinctly different from elsewhere in India and one of the most attractive wildlife spots in the country.
The Excitement Of A Tiger Safari Is An Experience You Won't Soon Forget
The Royal Bengal Tiger is undoubtedly the biggest attraction of the Sundarbans. Tigers here are well suited to life in the mangrove forests, and they are superb swimmers, unlike other national parks. Most of the time this takes place in the narrow creeks and tidal rivers that connect the islands, creating an unassuming but thrilling and unpredictable safari experience.
While it is not possible to guarantee sightings of tigers, each trip to the boat offers a thrilling opportunity to explore the animal's natural habitat. People frequently look for new paw prints on the river banks, movement among the mangroves or this spectacular predator suddenly appearing.
A Bird Lover's Paradise
Sundarbans is also well known for its abundance of birds. Over 300 species of local and migratory birds are seen year-round and it is a bird watcher's or photographer's delight.
There are colourful kingfishers, white-bellied sea eagle, heron, egret, storks, sandpipers, brahminy kites, cormorants and many more interesting birds may be seen depending on the season. Early morning boat safaris are ideal for seeing birds, when they are most active, along the waterways.
Birds greet with cheerful calls while floating in the tranquil waters of the river making the experience an unforgettable one for the nature persons.

The Sundarban is not just a tiger reserve, or a birds' sanctuary. The spotted deer grazing on the edge of the forest, the saltwater crocodiles lying down along muddy banks, playful otters swimming through creeks, wild boars looking for food, monitor lizards basking in the sun, and fishing cats walking quietly through the mangroves can all be seen during a safari.
Several species of fish also reside in the rivers and dolphins may be spotted, making your adventure even more exciting.
