Dear Sharad and Manjeet,
Thank you for arranging our tour so efficiently. We had very good sightings of the Tiger. Out of the 5 Game Drives that we went on, we had sightings on 4 of them. The only time we did not see the Tiger was when we were supposed to go on elephant back. We waited at Centre Point but as there were no reported sightings, had to return without seeing the Tiger.
Thank you Sharad for you sensitivity when conveying the news about the passing away of my mother. She was a heart patient and used to get Angina pains but from 10th December until I left, she was in good spirits and looked and felt well. I called her from New Delhi Airport while waiting for the flight to Kajuraho and she said she was fine and that everything at home was fine. That is why it was such a shock when you gave me the news. I guess God did not want me to see her in a coffin but to have a good memory of her.
We were very comfortable at Tigers Den Resort (TDR) . Gyanendra was extremely kind and helpful. The boys who waited on us at table went out of their way to please us. You have a great team there. The food was superb. I will certainly recommend TDR to my friends and anyone who wishes to visit Bandavargarh.
Today is my first day at work and I have loads to do so I will stop now.
With best wishes,
Tara..

In the first place, we want to thank you for the wonderful journey into India. It was a beautiful and very pleasant vacation.
Nature safari is in my opinion a highly professional organisation. Everything was good arranged. Hotels and resorts are good. Assistance on arrival and railway stations have been a great help for us. We have seen what we asked for: Lions and Tigers ( a lot of tigers) and a leopard as bonus.
As promised I send you the tiger photo's. If you want I wil send you a dvd of the whole journey.Very warm greetings,
Janny and Peter
Dear Sharad and Manjeet,
I have been very remiss in not contacting you following the excellent tour we had with you earlier this year.Both Irvin and I consider it to have been one of the highlights of our travelling. The organisation was superb and we were always met and taken to our next destination. As one gets older this is quite important as worries can easily set in. My late decision to include Udaipur was never forseen as a problem and all the arrangements worked like clockwork. It was a very wise decision to visit there as we both loved the palaces and the lakes.
The safaris ,too, were excellent and although we didn't see tigers at Ranthambore we were very fortunate at both Bandhavgarh and Kanha. All the drivers and guides involved were very knowledgable and because Irvin has quite bad problems with rheumatism which affected him getting in and out of jeeps,they could not do enough to offer their assistance. I must single out Dr Siva, the naturalist from Kanha who absolutely made the safari there for us. He took us outside the park where we saw Sarus cranes which come down from the Himalayas and again he was with us when we saw a pack of wild dogs attacking a young deer. His knowledge of ornithology is marvellous and I have now become interested since my return to UK. The accommodation was good and adequate for our needs. We did have a small hiccup at Kanha but following a telephone conversation with Sharad everything was resolved within half an hour. The customer service is second to none and it is good to know that if there are any problems Sharad is on the ball immediately to address the issue. I would most certainly travel with you again and I have in fact recommended your company to my friends.
Thank you all once again and my apologies for the delay in writing to you.

Dear
Sharad and Manjeet
We have arrived safely back and are slowly sorting through pictures and memories.
Thank you for organising a great trip. as promised heres a testimonial for your
use:-)
"We have spent 16 days primarily visiting National Parks and Sharad and
his team ensured the extensive logostics worked perfectly. There were someone
to meet and greet
at every juncture. Knowledgeable guides and helpfull staff were everywhere.
We were thouroughly briefed at the start and everything went smoothly throughout
the entire trip.
We visited Corbett, Bandavgahr and Kahna and saw lots of wildlife, not least
9 Tigers which was the main goal of the trip. So all in all a great success."
Hope this is the sort of thing....please note my new mail adress - new job!!

Dear Sharad,
I was really impressed by the punctuality and all the services of your company
and by the friendliness and the professionality of your collaborators. My first
trip to India has definitely been well organized and I spent nice and interesting
days. I got to see the tigers and I had the chance to take some good pictures
of birds, places and other animals. In Bandhavgarh, surprisingly, I didn't have
many chances to spot tigers (just one good spotting from the jeep), probably
due to the fact that my stay was shorter there than in Khana.
The Tiger Den Resort was very comfortable with a very cordial and familiar atmosphere
just as Tuli Tiger Resort was, which also offers very well prepared guides for
safari. In fact I did eight spottings of tigers, six of which from the jeep
and one very near, about 5 meters, for 25 minutes.
Certainly I will contact you in the future to organize some other vacations
maybe in Gir and Kaziranga. Until then, thanks for everything!!
See you
Guido Parma

Dear Sharad & Ashwani
I am emailing some of the pictures all taken by Malcom Hill and hope you enjoy them. Ashwani could you please show the ones with Sham and Divendra the driver to them, as I said I would send them to you to show them.
We cannot tell you enough how fantastic the trip was and so well organised. Every little thing was thought of and that's marvellous.
The tigers especially the one walking towards us for 500 m. was sensational - nothing can compare to that tingling feeling you get because they are wild and you don't know what they will do next. Is this for real, you have to keep asking yourself - but believe me its real. Your heart is beating so fast while you are viewing this magnificent animal - WOW its great. An experience that's eteched in your mnd forever.
We have already told many of our friends that if they are interested in doing such a tour to contact you in the near future.
Thank you once again for such a good time.
Warm regards
Heather & Malcolm Hill

Dear Sharad,
It gives me great pleasure to share the wonderful experience we had during the
Tiger Safari at Bandhavgarh Wild Resort with our friends.
For every trip that is successful, there needs to be someone attending to the
little details like entrance tickets, transportation, accommodations, guides,
etc., etc. Your professionalism in attending to these very details within the
one week that you had to make all the arrangements, we thank you. From the time
you arranged to have Prem pick us up from my residence in Delhi, till the time
we returned back after 5 days, all arrangements for the train tickets &
seating, the stop at Agra to see the Taj Mahal, the Agra Fort and the Baby Taj
and back on the train for the night journey to Bandhavgarh, Tiger Den Resort
and the return journey, we experienced no wasted time and were always being
met by courteous staff at each point.
Kudos to Mr T, as Tirath was known to his guests was both a courteous and fun-loving
guide and willing to detour to the far side of the park, so that we would not
miss the opportunity to spot the young tiger cub moving about making his way
at dusk towards the water hole! We will also not forget Mr Tiwari and his staff
for taking care of our room and meals at the Tiger Den Resort.
We are recommending this to our friends, encouraging them to use your services
to take care of the details! We appreciate your integrity and professionalism
- invaluable in a country in which, everyone you bump into the streets seems
interested in parting you with your money without regard to value received!
Sincerely,

Hello
Sharad & Manjeet and all @ Nature Safari.
Well we arrived home safely after the amazing trip organised by you, we have
many happy memories! We had a fantastic time and couldn't have hoped for a more
organised trip - we were met at each port of call and transferred to all the
lodges / sites as promised without any worries at all.We got to see a few Tigers
- which was fantastic- bviously there is no guarantee - but we were fortunate
in seeing them both from an elephant and from the vehicle (good views for photos).
The lodges were comfortable - we particularly enjoyed Tuli Lodge. The rooms
were spacious, the patio area was bright and airy and it had a nice swimming
pool. Bandhavgarh was also very nice - the service here was much more personal
and friendly. I would not hesitate to recommend your services to anyone I know
who was thinking of visiting India. I have attached a few of my fav. photos
for you as requested. Many Many thanks again - it was great dealing with you
all. Do you organise trips other than to India? We may be looking to go on safari
in Zambia at the end of the year, and if you can assist or recommend a tour
operator that would be great.
Warmest Regards
Paula & Thomas

Dear Sharad
Nature
Safari India.
Being a keen wild life enthusiast & photographer i would like to contribute
a short note on the Safari to Bandhavgarh - Kanha arranged by your company for
us recently.
I have travelled to India many times since the late 80's & visited most
of the wildlife parks, some of them on several occasions on tours arranged by
numerous Indian travel agents. I am delighted that our last visit was refreshingly
different from the earlier bad experiences in the hands of unscrupulous travel
agents trying to make a fast buck.
We have finally found a knowledgeable, capable & most importantly an honest
& reliable travel agent. He provided us with vehicles, lodges and other
ground handling arrangements to perfection in accordance with our contract.
We were indeed fortunate to have excellent sightings of 19 tigers including
a family of five and 2 sloth bear during our six day visit, thanks to the excellent
tracking & anticipation of well trained guides provided to us.
I take great pleasure in recommending Sharad & staff at Naturesafari as
a trusted, reliable and hospitable agency to handle travel in India.
With Warm Wishes for your continued success

I found Nature Safari and Sharad and his team while searching Internet in
2005. I saw on the site that they also had links to Care for the Wild, WWF,
and was impressed that they even contribute towards conservation. I have a tiger
adopted through Care for the Wild and so of course I checked up on Sharad and
company with CFW! Sharad doesn't know - but now he does!! I got a very good
recommendation and so I went for it. I had a wonderful 2 weeks in Bandhavgargh
and Corbett (although Sharad quite rightly tried to discourage me from doing
both, and so far apart, in such little time - never again!!) It was wonderful
and Tiger's Den so warm and friendly and my guide "Raghu" excellent
that of course I came back again this year (2006) but only to Bandhavgargh this
time and of course I'll come back next year!!! Nature Safaris are a wonderful,
small but serious and very personal company and they care very much about their
clients. I could go on and on and on!! I have aleady been to India and other
parks twice before so I have a comparison. I am a Nature Safari fan!

Dear Sharad,
Please accept our apologies for the unforgiveable delay in writing but many
thanks to you and Nature Safari for arranging our wonderful holiday in India.
Our guides and drivers were knowledgeable and efficient and we were looked after
so well. Not just taken to the relevant arrival/departure points but personally
escorted to trains, planes, hotels, etc., and there was always a friendly face
waiting at the end of a journey.
Our 4 days on safari at Bandhavgarh were the highlight of our holiday. The superb
wildlife and scenery, the charming bungalow at Tiger's Den Resort, the hospitality
of the staff, our lovely driver, Tee, who made sure each jeep safari was different
and full of interest, and 3 sightings of tigresses and cubs, made it a truly
memorable experience - we are so looking forward to our next visit!
The entire holiday was so well organised and we are happy to give Nature Safari
our full recommendation.
With kind regards to you all,
Andrew and Pam Flanagan

Subject: THANK YOU - Yogesh & Mangreet
Hello !
We would like to thank you for the excellent service that you provided us with
before and during our recent trip to India.From the point of booking Yogesh
was extremely efficient and dealt with all of my holiday queries quickly and
accurately. This excellent level of service continued when we arrived in India.
Mangeet who met us at the airport and stayed with us until we boarded the train
was very helpful and made us feel very welcome to India. I could continue to
list all the aspects of what was arranged for us because it was all of a first
class standard. Thank you.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in India and at the Tiger Den resort where the
standard was good and the staff were very friendly and helpful. We would certainly
recommend your company to other people wishing to travel to India. In addition
we had many wonderful sightings of tigers during our stay !
Having really enjoyed our trip and visiting Tala I would be interested in trying
to develop a link with the local village school. Do you have any ideas as to
how I could do this ? If not I can always write to Tiger Den directly and ask
for their help - am I right in thinking that they do not have an email connection
but do they have a fax line perhaps?. It is not a problem if not because I can
always write a letter to them . What I was hoping to do was to get to know a
member of staff at the school by writing to him/her and asking if there are
items of stationery or other resources that the school needs and to help them
out by sending these out from the UK. I would be interested in knowing whether
you think that this would work. Having enjoyed our trip so much and having been
made to feel so welcome by the people I would like to show our thanks on a practical
level if at all possible.
Thank you and kind regards,
Katie

Dear Sharad,
We have now returned from our two week trip to India and thought we would drop
you a line to say thank you for the amazing trip you organised for us. It went
smoothly from start to finish, and everyone was so friendly and helpful.It was
particularly lovely to see friednly faces again on our return to Delhi!
We had a wonderful time, and enjoyed seeing the tigers very much. The two weeks
went so quickly, and we didn't want to come home!
We would certainly recommend your services to anyone else wishing to travel
