Unique and authentic Privately Guided Safaris

The Experience (I)

A 6-day experience in Masai Mara with Suyash Keshari as the Private Guide. The guests learned about wildlife, tracking and conservation as they traveled around the savannah on game drives, night safaris, and walking safaris, following the Great Migration. These learning experiences were complemented by daily bush breakfasts, G&T sundowners, experiential meals amidst the African wilderness complimented by Suyash’s captivating way of telling stories and connecting with the guests at a personal level.

The Review

“This was my first trip outside of India but I didn’t feel vulnerable for even a second. The experience, hospitality, the people, and most importantly our host- Suyash and his fantastic team went over and above in making me feel comfortable. The safaris were action-packed from the very first drive, and I fell in love with everything we saw. Even the birds and common mammals which I did not expect to appreciate as much as the big cats. Suyash made us feel incredibly special and completely at-home.” – Saurabh

The Experience (II)

A 4-day experience in Satpura National Park in Central India with Sujatro – a highly trained Ameliya Naturalist and Private Guide. The daily safaris included a great learning experience about endemic species of the region with a special focus on wildlife photography. The sightings in this tour were extraordinary: a sloth bear mother with two cubs on her back, a leopard descending from the tree, and wild dogs playing with each other. But what was the most special was witnessing a tiger swimming across the river while on a boat safari experience.

The Review

“This was the most epic experience of my life.
I got really good and rare photos, the sightings were phenomenal and Sujatro helped me learn so much about my camera and shooting techniques. My memory cards were full! I also enjoyed the village visit and got incredible shots of local people and of women working in the fields. I even got a chance to be a part of the Holi Festival and play with colors. Can’t wait to explore more locations next time I come to India.”
