I took the motorcycle tour of Kolkata today - my guide was a bright young guy named Om - his understanding of the sights and english skills were exceptional. I would highly recommend this tour, especially by motorcycle as we were able to bypass the stalled traffic and if you go with Om, he knows the city very well and... More

As a busy person, I opted for the Sundarban one-day trip (despite this alternative being discouraged by their website :)) and didn't regret the price. Vikas and his driver (shame on me, I forgot his name), as well as the two crew guys, all in their twenties, not only enjoyed their job, but enjoyed themselves - and did all they... More

this was the definite highlight of my trip! i loved being out in the wilderness after the cultural whiplash of honking horns. the team was friendly, helpful, and engaging. AJ, who was the team member with us for the bulk of our trip, was knowledgeable, but didn't overwhelm us with too much information (which is nice when you're trying to... More

The package was reasonable and Mowgli and Manzar were the best. The mangroove forest is awsome, especially at night... We have opted to stay in the Elmar to feel the wild experience. Only disappointment is with not seeing any Boyal Bengal Tigers. Food was lovely (except one nasty spicy lunch). Would love to go with them again!! Cheers..Thanks Mowgli. -AB... More

This was a highlight of our time in Kolkatta mainly due to the team that we went with - Tour De Sundarbans. The boys are very attentive and want tour participants to have a good time. It is a back to basics trip where you spend time trying out a variety of transport modes (car, boats of various types and... More

We really enjoyed our day tour in the Sundarban. The guide, Vikas, was really kind and helpful. The boat crew members were really nice. the boat driver was exceptionnally good to see crocrodiles and any other animals. We had the chance to see two crocrodiles, a wild boar, an otter, a giant lezard and many different kind of birds. the... More

Which makes a tour to the Sunderbans unforgettable. AJ, Rajesh and Mogli are doing and good job. Food is made by a village family, Accom. is simple and clean, the village is peaceful and quiet, no cars only chicken. The final touch was the Bengal Tiger - breath-taking! 2011 Nov. 28th Stefan More

Scenery: Get your facts right before you visit Sunderbans. Its is the largest delta in the world filled with luscious mangroves. As about animals, its pure luck and the methods by which Indian forest dept. jealously guard the core areas of the forest doesn't help things much (this is true for Sunderbans and probably all other wildlife sanctuaries in India)....
