A Sundarban tour is unlike any other travel experience. Picture yourselves gliding along serene rivers, surrounded by lush mangroves, with the possibility of catching a glimpse of the elusive Royal Bengal Tiger or playful river dolphins. The tranquility and raw beauty of the Sundarbans make it an ideal escape for couples who want to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of city life and reconnect with nature—and each other.
Moreover, the region’s relative remoteness ensures that you won’t be sharing your special moments with hordes of tourists. The vast expanses, serene waterways, and pristine mangrove forests make it feel as if you have the entire world to yourselves.
Key Attractions for Couples in Sundarbans
1. Sajnekhali Watchtower
A highlight of any Sundarban private tour is a visit to the Sajnekhali Watchtower. This spot offers a panoramic view of the dense mangrove forests and the surrounding rivers. While climbing up together, you and your partner can enjoy a quiet moment looking out over the wilderness and spotting a variety of birds, such as kingfishers, herons, and egrets. The thrill of waiting, binoculars in hand, to catch sight of a tiger or spotted deer is something few experiences can match.
2. Dobanki Watchtower and the Canopy Walk
The Dobanki Watchtower is known for its unique canopy walk, which lets you and your partner walk above the forest floor, getting an elevated view of the mangroves and the surrounding wildlife. This walk through the canopy is not only adventurous but also intimate, allowing you to enjoy the natural beauty from a different perspective. The thrill of being so close to the wilderness adds a layer of excitement to your journey.
3. Sudhanyakhali Watchtower
The Sudhanyakhali Watchtower is another excellent location for wildlife spotting. It offers a higher probability of spotting tigers and other animals as they come to the nearby water bodies to quench their thirst. This watchtower is also known for sightings of wild boars, deer, and crocodiles. For couples who love the thrill of the wild, this spot will be a highlight.
