Chilika — 1 Night / 2 Days Tour
Package ID: TG-CITY-001813
Odisha · Lagoon & birds — Chilika, the largest brackish-water lagoon in Asia, is a vast, shimmering expanse dotted with islands where the Daya river meets the Bay of Bengal. Winter brings enormous flocks of migratory birds to Mangalajodi and Nalabana, and its resident Irrawaddy dolphins near Satapada are a rare draw, both best seen by boat. This 1-night tour is built around the destination's key sights, priced on enquiry and tailored to your dates — the day-by-day below is a flexible framework, confirmed with you at quotation.
