​Sundarban Houseboat Tour Booking- All you need to know?

Sundarbans as you know by now is a delta formation with about 100 islands of which about 53 is marked as Jungle area. The islands are separated from each other by creeks some of which are a meter broad in some places while others are big river formations with the probably biggest being the five river confluence which most of the tours cover. The creeks are filled up during the high tide and dries up during low tide. So to move around in these delta region, one needs to have access to a marine vehicles.

There are two areas of the Sundarban National Park area, one the core area which is strictly no go area for tourist and the other being the buffer areas which are accessible to tourist for animal sightings. There is another part of Sundarbans which are the islands with habitations and have most basic living conditions. These villagers too need boats to travel between islands which are mostly basic mechanized country boats without any coverings or amenities as they are used to cover short distances.

For the tourists however the scene is completely different. Tourists spend most of the day time travelling or "Cruising" in these backwaters from morning till evening visiting different watch towers and narrow creeks, etc. So the tourist boats are equipped with everything and anything you might need. All of these boats have night staying options on the boats. There are bunk beds, kitchens, toilets in the lower deck area and on the top are the lounging area where you spend most of the time viewing the forests and enjoying the cool breeze. There are Sundarban AC Houseboat with all amenities to experience an memorial stay.
