TOUR OVERVIEW
SUNDARBANS: The only mangrove tiger forest in the world! It is a surreal experience to see tigers swim island after island in search of
prey or covering their territory in this end of Bay of Bengal. Sundarbans National Park covers part of India and Bangladesh. It is a
huge mangrove forest!
Over the years with better conservation and heightened interest by wildlife lovers, the reporting of recent sightings has really picked
up! In a short trip of 5-6 days, one can really get to see and photograph many mammals, reptiles and birds in this mangrove forest!
The saying of "maneater tiger of Sundarbans" generally was term used when there was less prey available! With conservation,
breeding and release of prey, such incidents have reduced in number.
This safari is unusual as it requires the guests to sit in a large boat and be ferried around the islands in search of the elusive tiger and
sometimes go to watch tower and try out their luck. Many kingfishers are found in these mangroves. Black capped Kingfisher,
Collared Kingfisher and Brown-winged Kingfisher and the rare Ruddy Kingfisher are some of the in demand target species for many
bird lovers! Buffy fish owl is also high on the list!
Tiger, fishing cat, jungle cat, spotted deer, wild boars, flying foxes, macaques, grey mongoose, smooth coated otters, salt water
crocodiles are some of the main species seen in this mangrove forest!
There are nearly 300 species of birds in Sundarbans.
