“The same routes by train and guesthouse”
Overnight trains, guesthouses and no private cars. Slower and a fraction of the price, and the trains are half the point.
Excellent sightings and the guides clearly knew the area. Nothing fancy about the beds, and nothing wrong with them either. Good value for what's included.
Early starts, but that's where the wildlife is. Well run. No hesitation recommending them.
Early starts, but that's where the wildlife is. Well run. The team read the group well and adjusted without making a thing of it. Worth every rupee.
Early starts, but that's where the wildlife is. Well run. Hostel nights are basic but clean, and that's what the price says. Would book with them again.
Excellent sightings and the guides clearly knew the area. Dorms were tidy and the common areas were where the group actually gelled. Never went hungry, and the tea appeared exactly when it was needed. Solid operator.
Sightings were thin on our dates, which is luck, but the drives felt rushed. Whoever planned the days knew what they were doing.
Thank you. We've taken the point about the transfer and are reviewing it.
Karnataka was quieter than I expected and the camp was comfortable. Hostel nights are basic but clean, and that's what the price says.
Sunday evenings and public holidays, roughly 7 to 7:45 PM, plus every evening during Dasara. If it matters to you, book a departure that includes a Sunday.
