I had taken the 2N/3D Sundarbans package ex kolkata from 25 Dec 19. Whilst the bus provided for pickup was good, the boat where you literally spend the next two days leave much to be desired. The boat in comparison with similar ones plying these waters was certainly below par.
The boat was also visibly over her normal capacity because the staff had to do two shifts to serve meal for about 35 plus guests onboard. While the staff was courteous, if you don't speak Bengali, you would need the help of fellow passengers to communicate with even the firms representative also.
The food is quite fine though doesn't match the menu in the website as egg is never served for breakfast (which is poori and sabzi) nor mutton for dinner. Also be prepared for all promulgated timings to be delayed by upto 1 hour, be it food timings or the scheduled trip departure timings.
Nonetheless, the beauty of the nature in Sundarbans does make you forget these inconveniences.
