Sundarbans Tour, great trip

Great experience to go through the larges mangrove forest by boat and stay overnight on the vessel on the rivers. Even though accommodation and facilities are very basic on board I really liked the trip. Mam Holidays was very helpful to arrange a day-time journey back to Dhaka. My guide, Mizan gave me a lot of valuable information during our stay in the Sundarbans..

5 day Sundarbans Tour

This was a magnificent tour, all that we wsihed for and more, although the tigers did not come to see us. From the moment we were met on the steamer in Dhaka to the end of the tour we were looked after in a friendly, professional way. The driver was good and managed traffic well. In Khulna we wandered round local shops with no hassle, feeling very safe. The smaller boat that took us round Sundarbans was great, a lovely atmosphere created by the captain who was excited when he showed us dolphins and a crocodile. The guides were knowledgable and knew where to find birds, deer and a tiger paw print. The boat staff kept the boat well, very clean, lovely food and staff were always aware of our needs. I would recommend this tour and Bangladesh as a fascinating, safe country to visit..

Tour Plan

Day 1: Pickup from Dhaka – Journey Begins

Your exciting Sundarban tour from Dhaka begins in the late afternoon. Our local guide will greet you at your hotel or Dhaka airport between 4:00 and 5:00 PM. After a quick welcome briefing, we’ll escort you to the Dhaka Railway Station for your overnight journey toward Khulna. Board your AC/non-AC overnight train at around 7:00 PM, settling into your comfortable sleeper berth. As the train pulls out of the capital, watch the city lights fade into the serene green countryside. This Dhaka to Khulna train tour is not just a means of transport — it’s your first chance to witness rural Bangladesh, with endless rice fields, rivers, and palm-dotted villages whizzing past your window. Dinner can be taken before the journey or onboard (light snacks recommended). Sleep soundly as you leave behind the bustle of city life and head toward the peaceful forests of the Sundarbans.

Day 2: Arrival in Khulna – Into the Sundarbans

Arrive in Khulna early morning, where you’ll be welcomed by your tour coordinator and transferred to the Khulna Launch Ghat. After a hearty local breakfast at the pier, you’ll board your dedicated RVT vessel for the start of your Sundarban boat safari. First stop is the Dhangmari Forest Office, where your permits are processed for entering the protected Sundarban forest tour Bangladesh. Once cleared, the adventure begins. You’ll cruise through the winding rivers and silent creeks of the mangrove delta — the world’s largest. Your first forest activity takes place at Herbaria Mangrove Trail, a short yet fascinating boardwalk through dense forest. Here, learn about rare mangrove species and their crucial role in protecting the coastline. Watch for mudskippers, monkeys, crabs, and if lucky — a glimpse of a water monitor lizard. As the boat glides deeper into the forest, enjoy your lunch onboard and soak in the stillness of the wilderness. Later in the day, arrive at Kachikhali, where the vessel anchors for the night. Enjoy a peaceful dinner under the stars. Overnight stay on the boat, gently rocking on the river — a truly unique experience in your Bangladesh Sundarbans eco-tour.

Day 3: Kachikhali to Katka – Tiger Territory & Beach Exploration

Start the day early with a fresh cup of tea or coffee on deck. Set out on a guided river safari in Sundarban through narrow tidal creeks lined with dense forest. This is a prime time for birdwatching in Sundarbans — look out for egrets, kingfishers, herons, and maybe even a white-bellied sea eagle. Disembark to explore the Kachikhali wildlife zone on foot, guided by forest experts and accompanied by an armed forest guard. You may encounter spotted deer herds, wild boars, and fresh tiger tracks in the mud — a thrilling highlight of this tiger spotting Sundarban experience. Sail onward to Katka, one of the most wildlife-rich areas of the Sundarbans. Hike to the Katka Watch Tower for a panoramic view of the forest and grasslands. Then head to the Katka Beach where the forest meets the Bay of Bengal. This remote beach is perfect for quiet walks and photography. Enjoy a hearty lunch on board before cruising to the Karamjal Wildlife Centre — a conservation hub featuring a crocodile breeding center, deer enclosures, and forest education exhibits. The area is ideal for observing local flora and fauna in a safe setting. Spend the evening stargazing from the boat deck, with the sounds of the forest all around. Overnight on the vessel near Dhangmari.

Day 4: Return to Khulna – Relax & Rewind

Wake to the peaceful call of forest birds. After breakfast, make your second visit to Karamjal for a slow-paced walk and deeper exploration of the mangrove biodiversity. Watch troops of monkeys swinging in the trees, spot mudcrabs in the roots, and learn about eco-protection efforts by local forest officials. Late morning, begin your return cruise to Khulna. This leg of your Sundarban forest cruise offers one last chance to capture wildlife moments and enjoy the shifting forest landscapes. Lunch will be served on board as you approach the Khulna jetty. Upon arrival, check in to your hotel in Khulna and enjoy the comfort of a soft bed and fresh shower after three adventurous days in the wild. In the evening, feel free to explore Khulna’s local bazaars, riverside cafés, or just relax with a traditional Bengali dinner at the hotel.

Day 5: Bagerhat Heritage Tour – Culture and History

After breakfast, your driver and guide will take you on a day trip to Bagerhat, just 40 km from Khulna — a highlight of your Sundarban tour with Bagerhat. Bagerhat is home to one of the most significant Islamic architectural heritage zones in South Asia. Begin your historical mosque tour at the iconic Shait Gumbad Mosque, a 15th-century masterpiece with 77 domes and 60 interior stone pillars — a true wonder of Bengal Sultanate-era engineering. Continue to the Tomb of Khan Jahan Ali, the city’s legendary founder. Don’t miss the nearby pond where sacred crocodiles reside — locals believe feeding them brings good luck. Visit the Nine-Domed Mosque, smaller but equally impressive, and stop by the Bagerhat Museum to learn about ancient urban planning, terracotta artwork, and Sufi traditions. This Bagerhat heritage tour beautifully complements the natural experiences of your previous days. Return to Khulna in the evening and freshen up before boarding your return overnight train or bus to Dhaka.

Day 6: Return to Dhaka – Tour Ends

Your journey concludes as you arrive in Dhaka early in the morning. Our team will provide a comfortable drop-off at your hotel or Dhaka airport. After 6 full days of jungle safari in Bangladesh, immersive mangrove forest boat tours, and rich cultural exploration, your heart will be full of unforgettable experiences — from spotting deer in the misty mangroves to walking through ancient mosques. Whether you joined this as part of a Sundarban group tour or private adventure, you'll return home with deeper insights into the hidden wonders of Bangladesh.
