India Safaris

Overall experience was magical and your whole team were very attentive and helpful. Banyan Tour representatives were excellent and went above and beyond to make our trips and flights as easy and comfortable as possible. We were delighted with our entire experience!

The guides were first class and we received quality service! I'd love to travel again and see the snow leopards in India.

Our trip was excellent, we loved staying with a team who did a great job! We would love to travel to Central America, especially Costa Rica, South America, especially Colombia, Argentina, and Chile next!

We have always had excellent experiences with Natural World Safaris.

Anna was always polite, friendly and willing to help, returning calls promptly and resolving issues. The logistics of the trip were impeccably smooth, the hotels luxurious and the itinerary superb. Most outstanding was the calibre of guides: highly qualified (most to MBA level), intelligent, astonishing English language skills, well informed and charming.

Dealing with NWS is always a very easy and pleasant experience. You get it dead right for us each and every time we travel with you. We wouldn't even dream of using another agent ever again!

My wife would rate the trip an 11 out of 10 – it exceeded our expectations! Meeting at the Delhi airport was great, as were the services on departure. Several small details like the dress and manner of the local guide who met us, the good seats on the internal flight and the cleanliness of the vehicles used in transporting from airport to the camps and back were all first class. What we really enjoyed were the staff, meals and facilities of Kanha Camp as well as the Tree House at Bandhavgarh. Both were very well designed for the environment as well as staffed by informed and very hospitable guides. Quality of the meals at Tree Top as well as evening activities were very well worth it. We were fortunate enough to see tigers close up in both locations – truly a memorable trip.

Your Destination Specialist read my mind. My itinerary was PERFECT: attention to detail, assurance of quality and security (particularly for a woman traveling alone), great selection of local travel guides and gorgeous accommodations.

Fantastic. 3 different regions for rhinos, lions & tigers. Fortunate to have multiple sightings of all 3 plus sloth bear, gibbons and may other birds, animals, reptiles. I have been using you for about 10 years and you are the first site I try.

Never had such a comprehensive briefing pack that covers the important things from tipping protocol to Consulates. We had Mohan as our guide - we thought he was fab! Just the right ratio of talking and silence and also very expert (and a nice guy to boot).

It was absolutely incredible, everything was perfect and effortless and everyone was so friendly and helpful, it was amazing. Both NWS and Banyan were a delight to deal with.

Exceptional. Travelling with NWS is the only way to visit this maddening, infuriating, but most fascinating country. Thank you, NWS!

The four of us thought NWS did a terrific job organising our trip. Not long into our journey, we realized that organisation is imperative in India and Sri Lanka, and everything ran like clockwork. The guides were very good in each location, and we can never say enough good things about the drivers and guides in the parks. NWS did what they said they would do and got us close to the animals we wanted to see: tigers and leopards. NWS got us to the animals and we would definitely book with them again!

Natural World Safaris itineraries are always as requested and the recommendations do tend to be very good and spot on. Have already recommended you to others, especially a family looking to do safari at Christmas/New Year, will provide their details to you.

We stayed in 6 different locations and whilst each accommodation was very different, all were superb in their own unique way. The best overall experience was at Sherbagh. I have not ticked excellent for 'comfort' as the gypsy jeeps are not very comfortable. However, this wasn't a problem for us but may be for people with posture issues as the roads in the Ranthambore Park are very tough going.

Very impressed with NWS who arranged our travels in Rajasthan. Great accommodation, drivers and guides. Highly recommended.

This was a fantastic and unique trip. Very well planned and very smooth. I felt very well cared for - particularly important for a solo female traveller. Mike did a great job of listening to my preferences and customising the trip for me. I would recommend your company to anyone!

Both places I stayed, Flame of the Forest and Samode, were fantastic, but Flame of the Forest is by far the best experience I have had staying at a facility. The warmth and inclusiveness displayed by Karan and Isa took the experience far beyond the norm. I would recommend them and their cottages to anyone traveling in that area.

Still in Bombay as I write. I was, I confess, sceptical about the idea of an extended family trip to India. I have been here before. I was wrong. We have had a superb holiday and were looked after all the way. Since I well know just how easy it is to make things work smoothly here I am doubly impressed at what you put together and your choice of team. I have taken the liberty of recommending you.

Thank you for the fantastic holiday you organised for us, we had a wonderful time! All your arrangements worked immaculately, and we were met everywhere by very helpful young men – so helpful that some of them got quite distressed when we wanted to carry our own bags! So thank you for a wonderful experience – we will both recommend you to friends.

Not sure when or where but we will come back to you. We enjoyed India, like to see more.
