An understated excursion, a Madu Ganga River safari is an otherworldly experience, to say the least. The boat will take you through groves of mangrove forests which hide numerous rare species of animals as well as birds. Crocodiles, monitor lizards, and up to one hundred other birds call the river their home. The river also has many islands scattered all over, only interconnected by tiny bridges. Koth Duwa is one island you should not miss. Home to a timeworn temple, the island is strangely calming and peaceful.
