The tour begins at Sonakhali, the main gateway to the Sundarbans, where you board a boat and begin the river journey into the delta. The first stop is Gosaba, one of the oldest and most historically significant islands in the region.

At Gosaba, you'll visit the Hamilton Bungalow. In the afternoon visit to Pakhiralay Bird Sanctuary introduces you to the extraordinary birdlife of the Sundarbans — a region that is home to over 300 recorded bird species, including kingfishers, herons, eagles, and the rare masked finfoot.

Day two is the most wildlife-intensive day of the tour. You'll move through the core areas of the Sundarbans Tiger Reserve, visiting a series of watch towers and wildlife zones that form the heart of the national park.

Sajnekhali Watch Tower is the main entry point into the reserve, with a small museum and mangrove interpretation centre nearby. From here, the route takes you through Sudhanyakhali, one of the best spots in the Sundarbans for Royal Bengal Tiger sightings, where a freshwater pond at the edge of the forest regularly draws wildlife to the bank.

The day continues through Pirkhali, Bonbibi Bharani, Chora Gazi Khali, and Sundarkhali before ending at the Dobanki Watch Tower — a raised canopy walkway through the mangroves that gives you a rare tree-level view of the forest floor below.

Wildlife to watch for throughout the day includes the Royal Bengal Tiger, saltwater crocodile, spotted deer, water monitor lizard, Irrawaddy dolphin, and a wide variety of resident and migratory birds.

The final morning takes you to Panchamukhani, a point where five rivers meet and the water spreads wide in every direction — one of the more quietly dramatic views the Sundarbans has to offer. From here, the boat moves toward the Bay of Bengal estuary, where the forest gives way to open water and you get a sense of the sheer scale of this delta.

The route back passes through Jharkhali Watch Tower and Parshe Mari, offering views over the mangrove channels and the surrounding waterways before the return journey to Sonakhali.

For travellers who want to go further, an optional offbeat excursion is available at an additional cost. This route covers Bagna Forest, Marichjhapi, Buri Dabri Watch Tower, the Raymangal River, Jhingakhali and Harikhali Watch Towers, the India-Bangladesh Border Viewpoint, and the famous Sundarbans Zero Point — the southernmost tip of the Indian landmass accessible by boat.
