29:54 Feb 7
'Such an exciting journey to move through the Sundarban forest in ship, To be honest animal visibility was low during this journey but i enjoyed lot of food on the ship together with freshness of the air.  Just in case you have missed our Kolkata Series then watch it here: http://bit.ly/2Ogm6wM   We got our tickets done from West Bengal tourism, ticket cost summary below. We did the journey in AC section.  1 Night 2 Days Tour AC Berth Rs 6,050/ person + GST Non AC Berth Rs 4,730/ person +GST  All costs included in the above fare, like bus, food, guide, etc.  Journey starts from Kolkata and ends in Kolkata.   You may also want to do a 2 night and 3 day tour on ship, they have option for that as well.  If you are planning to travel with government you need to book in advance, plus journey dates are pre fixed.  In case Govt reservations are full for Sundarban Safari. Then you can take Private Boats too for Sundarban Safari.   The charges for Private Boats can be approx Rs. 6,000 to 7,000 per person. They also offer full day tour too. I don’t have any details to share with you but these are estimates that i got from few people.  Note: According to Govt rules small boats are not allowed for tour purpose plus it is not safe also.  You can do booking of the trip in advance through the below website and also connect with tourism office over phone for more information in this regard.  West Bengal Tourism: https://wbtourismgov.in/   P.S: You can’t get down to the forest area and do any safari there like there is no jeep safari or Elephant safari. Only way you travel to Sundarbans is by ship or large size boat….  Note: If you can carry Binoculars along you will enjoy this journey more.  During April to Aug - West Bengal tourism does not operate ship tours to Sunderbans as it is hot and humid.  Hope you enjoyed watching this episode, more on Kolkata food and travel on the way after this episode.  Thanks for your time, see you soon.'
