Experience an unforgettable Sundarban tour in Bangladesh from Mongla, home to the world’s largest mangrove forest and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Embark on a 3-day exploration aboard our small houseboat. Departing from Mongla, the gateway to the forest, our small-group tours accommodate a maximum of 6 travelers only – unlike the picnic parties of the traditional operators from Khulna on large boats with 40-70 people, wasting a full day in a round-trip to reach the forest and back. Get an authentic experience of Sundarban and a chance to see Bengal tigers, spotted deer, river dolphins, wild boars, clawless otters, salt-water crocodiles, and many other species of birds and wildlife.
Our Sundarban tour in Bangladesh will take you on an exclusive 3-day tour on a small boat to experience the Sundarban Mangrove Forest for a once-in-a-lifetime experience. We offer private and small group Sundarban tour from Mongla which is wildlife-focused and strictly maintain safety and food hygiene.
The Sundarbans is the largest mangrove forest in the world and one of the wildest, least-known environments in southern Asia. Located in the delta formed by the confluence of the Ganges, Brahmaputra, and Meghna Rivers in the Bay of Bengal, the Sundarban extends over 10,000 sq km. Two-thirds of the Sundarban is located in Bangladesh, and the rest is in India. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and designated a wetland site of international importance under the Ramsar Convention.
Sundarbans is the home of 104 Royal Bengal Tigers, 30,000 spotted deer, 35 species of reptiles (including giant cobras and pythons and eight species of amphibians), 300 species of birds, 120 species of fish, 42 species of mammals, numerous river dolphins, wild boars, claw-less otters, monkeys, and salt-water crocodiles together with many other species of wildlife. Hundreds of rivers, creeks, and canals are the veins of the forest, making it a pristine environment.

Our Sundarban tour in Bangladesh from Mongla will take you deep inside the forest on a small houseboat to experience this magical environment for three whole days. Unlike other tour operators in Bangladesh, we organize this tour with a maximum of 6 participants and take our guests through some exclusive parts of the forest from Mongla, where the traditional operators with their larger vessels can not go because of the shallowness of the canals. It ensures maximum wildlife spotting opportunities for our guests and provides an exclusive experience away from the regular tourists in the forest.
This tour starts and ends at Mongla, located on the forest’s edge (240 km from Dhaka, 53 km from Khulna). You can book our longer Sundarban tour packages for the convenience of commencing and finishing in Dhaka; all of them offer a superior experience.
