📍 Destination Overview
The Sundarbans, the Ganges-Brahmaputra delta spanning Bangladesh and India, is the world's largest mangrove forest and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Interlacing roots and tidal channels shelter hundreds of Royal Bengal tigers, plus Ganges dolphins and 300 birds. Reachable only by boat, cruises thread the creeks where honey-collector tiger encounters are legend.
