After that, we will drive you to Mongla. Overnight on the Sundarbans reserved boat. ► About the Sundarbans Boats: Eco-friendly without noise from air-conditioner, easy to navigate, the compact Sundarbans boats with a capacity of no more than 20 guests are best for wildlife spotting in the Sundarbans. As we are in the subtropical area, the climate is pleasant from November to February. Although it can be sweltering hot from March to June, it’s cool at night since boats are made of steel or aluminum. Also, there is a solar-powered fan at every room to address heat.

This morning, take the boat from Port of Mongla to the Sundarbans National Park, a World Heritage Site to find the world’s largest mangrove forest, swimming Royal Bengal Tigers existing nowhere else, endangered Gangetic dolphins, and other various types of wildlife. On the way, stop at the Chadpai Forest Office to get necessary forest entry permits and pick up an armed forest guard to ensure our safety throughout the entire Sundarbans trip. We will get off the boat at the Harbaria Eco-Center, one of the entrances to the Sundarbans, and walk about 30 minutes to the wildlife gathering area to view them.

Afterwards, go back to and have lunch on the boat. The whole afternoon will see us safariing through the beautiful spots of Kochikhali. In the evening, our boat will dock near the Kochikhali Forest Office. If we still have time before sunset, we will hop on a small boat to look for endemic wildlife along the canals. Overnight on the boat.
