The inaccessibility of Sundarbans (declared as a Tiger Reserve on 1973) is its biggest attraction & in the mystery-shrouded Pirkhali, Gazikhali, Chora Ganjikhali, DeolBharani, Bhagaban Bharani, Panchamukhani & Sunarkhari you may have a glimpse of that awful beauty – The Royal Bengal Tiger. You may ascend the watch tower of Sajnekhali, Sudhanyakhali, Do Baanki, Marichjhapi, Burir Dabri & Netidhopani overlooking an untamed forestscape & enjoy sights & sounds of nature resplendent in her pristine virginal beauty.

At dusk as the birds retire to their nests & the sky tinged with rays of the setting sun, the entire forest undergoes a subtle transformation when the shapes & forms, silhouetted against the evening sky, acquire a surrealistic character. The night stay in launch with eternal silvery moonlight, the star-studded blue sky & the constant murmur of the river is a different experience altogether. The variegated moods & colours of the forest form a Kaleidoscope, which is sure to fascinate you. The sounds of nocturnal birds at a distance will take your mind far far away from this madding world.

The most interesting wilderness of the world, Sundarbans is a paradise for wild life enthusiasts, bird & butterfly watchers. Honey collectors, fishermen with their typical fishing boats will be an added attraction.
