A memorable trip to Munsiyari - The trip was meticulously planned and executed to perfection to suite our requirements of birding. Icing on the cake was birding while it was snowing. Our guide knew all the happening birding hotspots and the bird species and that was a great help. I was able to see some very exotic species that I had hoped for and some more. Got nice pics too. The tour operator even accommodated our last minute request to add a stop during the return leg. Perfect trip. I have already done 3 trips with this organisation and plan to do more. Just waiting for the pandemic to be over.

Birding tour of Nainital area - Bhimtal and Pangot - My wife and I had a very enjoyable few days birding in the Nainital area with Sachin during March 2020 as part of our month long Nivalink tour of northern India. Sachin picked us up from Pantnagar Airport and drove us through attractive scenery around Nainital to Bhimtal where we stayed 2 nights in Fisherman’s Lodge, beautifully situated beside the lake. The birding around the lake, the village and nearby woodland was very productive. Sachin then drove us up to Pangot at 2000 masl where we stayed at Aranya Viraat Cottages for 2 nights, again providing excellent, but different birding opportunities, many in the grounds, but also in other terrains and birding hotspots nearby. We were well looked after by Sachin throughout and he was very determined to search out key species eg Cheer Pheasant, to the envy of other birders in the area, and overall around 100 species, generally with good views. Of course the scenery is fabulous, especially views of the Himalayas near Sigri. We found Sachin to be a very personable and knowledgeable guide, and would not hesitate to use his services when we return to northern India.
