Upon arrival at the airport meet & greet by Lumle representative and transfer to the hotel. Kolkata (formerly Calcutta) is the capital of India's West Bengal state. Founded as an East India Company trading post, it was India's capital under the British Raj from 1773–1911. Today it’s known for its grand colonial architecture, art galleries and cultural festivals. It’s also home to Mother House, headquarters of the Missionaries of Charity, founded by Mother Teresa, whose tomb is on site.

After breakfast, we will proceed to begin exploring Kolkata with a tour of some of its major tourist sites viz. St John's Church, the historic Raj buildings around Dalhousie Square, the Jain and Kali temples and the magnificent marble dome of the Victoria Memorial, where the grandeur of European and Mughal influences come together.

We will continue with our sightseeing visiting the clay modeller's village of Kumartuli. The potters here spend all year creating an abundance of pictures and icons for the yearly celebrations and, as the time approaches for the models to be ready for the approaching pujas, the streets are loaded up with a staggering showcase of brightly coloured and lavishly attired symbols.

After breakfast, we will continue to explore more of the Kolkotta by paying a visit to the colourful flower market where tons of brightly coloured marigolds are sold by traders, before driving to Belur Math on the banks of the sacred Ganges. A place of pilgrimage for the individuals from all over the world, the site is well known for its serene setting and the engineering of its structures. Most fascinating, is the Ramakrishna temple which is intended to commend the variety of Indian religions and looks like a temple, a mosque and a church when seen from various vantage focuses.

Afterwards, we'll take a short boat ride across the river to the Dakshineswar Kali Temple. Built in the nineteenth century by well off widow Rani Rasmani, it's said that the goddess Kali appeared to her in a dream promising to show herself at the site in the event that a temple was developed in her honour.

After breakfast, we'll leave Kolkata for the unique landscapes of the Sundarbans. Interpreting as the 'beautiful jungle', this UNESCO World Heritage site is home to one of the biggest mangrove forests on the earth. Set among an immense delta that is taken care of by the waters of the Padma, Brahmaputra and Meghna Rivers, the region is a safe habitat for Bengal tigers, crocodiles, and a momentous variety of birds.

A short cruise journey will take us to the Sundarban Tiger Camp, our base for the following two nights. We'll eat our lunch before heading out by boat again to the Sajnekhali Tiger project region. There's a small museum and a watch tower for spotting tigers and other untamed wildlife. The close by heron sanctuary is a wonderful spot, and Egrets are common visitors to this part of the wilderness.

Beginning early, we'll proceed with our exploration of the Sundarbans, cruising along winding creeks and through thick mangrove forests looking for untamed wildlife. Assuming we're fortunate, we could spot Royal Bengal tigers unwinding on the mudflats close to the waterways and creeks. Other wildlife we could spot includes fishing cats, leopard cats, macaques, wild boar, Indian grey mongoose, pangolin, and chital, as well as an abundance of birdlife.

We'll make a stop at the Dobanke Watch Tower where we'll enjoy a canopy walk to view the animal and bird life in the treetops and visit the spotted deer rehabilitation centre. In the afternoon, we'll visit some of the local villages to get insight into local culture and life, including villager's living challenges with the Bengal Tigers.

After a last voyage in the Sundarbans, a visit to Sudhanyakhali Watch tower and lunch at the Tiger Camp, we'll head back to Kolkata. Remaining time is kept for rest & relax.
