Ujwal is an outstanding birding guide!
From the very beginning, he was calm, composed, and incredibly knowledgeable, making me feel completely at ease. He is client-intuitive, ensuring every aspect of my comfort was taken care of—even going so far as to buy bedsheets, a blanket and hot water bags when I mentioned my concerns about staying at homestays. His dedication was evident in everything he did.
Ujwal hikes those hills like a pro, never once leaving my side, and his sharp eye for birds made the trip exceptionally rewarding. I saw an incredible 188+ species, including over 120+ lifers! Every evening, he sent me a neatly compiled list of all the species we spotted, with lifers clearly marked—an extra touch that I truly appreciated.
One of his strongest assets is his well-established network. He has excellent connections with drivers, homestays, and local guides, ensuring smooth logistics throughout.
He also made sure that every place we stayed at was aware of my dietary needs, which was a huge relief.
With Ujwal, I never had to worry about a thing—just focus on the birds and enjoy the experience. I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend him to any birder looking for a seamless and rewarding trip! Thank you Ujwal Rai!
