This was my fourth trip to India and third trip with Anshuman (Indie) on my previous trips were cultural tours and this one was a wildlife where we were to go to the national parks and try to find tigers in the wild. On my trips to India with Anshuman(Indie), he came across as a great tour guide with brilliant people skills and meticulous planning for the trip, his knowledge of history, religion and culture brought a lot to the table. On this trip I was exposed to whole new dimension of his skill sets not only he is a great naturalist and a good spotter of wildlife and birds but he also is an excellent photographer and imparted a lot of information about the habitat, animal and bird behavior and their unique habits. We saw three different tigers and counted more than 80 species of birds.

Indie is a delightful tour planner, fantastic tour guide and a dear friend, this was our third trip with him, we travelled across Rajasthan in a group of four with our two friends from previous trips and loved our two-week trip. The best part about the whole experience was, little surprises indie planned along the way which were not mentioned in the program. Like visiting a cow rescue centre, stopping at a village to observe demoiselle cranes and visiting a village where entire community of sphered gathered to welcome us and give us a unique cultural experience. We dressed up sang and danced with them and this trip ended at Udaipur with a beautiful sunset boat ride which was like a healing touch after a great sensory overload. We would highly recommend traveling with Indie.

We had a good fortune to have Anshuman as our tour director his knowledge, enthusiasm, kindness, patience and enduring good humour was remarkable! A professional photographer, along the way and presented us on a flash drive at the end of the trip. The final impression of our journey is best summed up in Anshuman’s words “welcome a visitor and send back a friend”
