Introduction || This 7-day itinerary brings together Kolkata, the wilderness of Sundarbans wildlife, and the elevated beauty of tea Darjeeling in northern Bengal, offering a seamless transition between heritage, delta ecosystem, and mountain landscapes. The journey begins in Kolkata, where you receive an in-depth introduction to the city’s royal past through narrative-driven exploration. From colonial architecture to cultural memory, this segment adds historical depth before entering Bengal’s natural landscapes. From Kolkata, the route shifts dramatically into the Sundarbans — the largest mangrove ecosystem in the world, located in the vast delta on the Bay of Bengal and home to the Royal Bengal Tigers. This region stands as one of India’s most distinctive Sundarbans wildlife environments. Activities include observing animals from watchtowers, walking through caged canopy pathways above the mangroves, bird watching across tidal creeks, and cruising by boat through intricate waterways. You also meet local fishermen and honey collectors, listening to the spine-chilling realities of their daily survival within this tidal forest ecosystem. The final segment takes you to Darjeeling in the hills of northern Bengal. Here, sweeping Himalayan landscapes frame your experience for two days. Visit Tiger Hill for sunrise mountain views, explore monasteries, and ride the famous Steam Train that winds through the historic hill station. The journey also connects you to the heritage of Darjeeling tea garden culture, where the legacy of Darjeeling tea plantation craftsmanship shapes local identity. Sampling local cuisine and shopping for traditional handicrafts complete this combined hills-and-delta experience. By uniting Kolkata’s royal history, the ecological richness of Sundarbans wildlife, and the refined mountain charm of tea Darjeeling, this itinerary presents a diverse and immersive journey across Bengal’s most iconic landscapes.
