Estuarine crocodiles, water monitors and kingfishers are routine. Tigers are seen on perhaps one trip in twenty and nobody honest promises otherwise.

“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.
Early starts, but that's where the wildlife is. Well run. Nothing fancy about the beds, and nothing wrong with them either. Whoever planned the days knew what they were doing. Would send friends their way.
Early starts, but that's where the wildlife is. Well run. Dorms were tidy and the common areas were where the group actually gelled. Simple food, well made, and enough of it.
Excellent sightings and the guides clearly knew the area. Hostel nights are basic but clean, and that's what the price says. Simple food, well made, and enough of it. Worth every rupee.
Glad you enjoyed it. Hope to see you on another trip.
West Bengal was quieter than I expected and the camp was comfortable. Would book with them again.
Sightings were thin on our dates, which is luck, but the drives felt rushed.
Appreciate the honest feedback; we're looking at the pacing on that section.
Early starts, but that's where the wildlife is. Well run. Nothing fancy about the beds, and nothing wrong with them either. Food was plentiful and hot, which counts for a lot at altitude. Solid operator.
Glad you enjoyed it. Hope to see you on another trip.
Excellent sightings and the guides clearly knew the area. The team read the group well and adjusted without making a thing of it. Would send friends their way.

Thank you. We've taken the point about the transfer and are reviewing it.
Low — roughly one trip in twenty. The mangrove is dense, the tigers are genuinely elusive and they swim between islands. Anyone selling you a tiger here is selling something they cannot deliver.
