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. 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.

Karnataka was quieter than I expected and the camp was comfortable. Hostel nights are basic but clean, and that's what the price says.
