Species spotted900I stayed from 24th March 2021 to 26th March in Birders den along with my wife and 8 year old kid. We as a family are very keen on birding and love to explore locations like this to understand and see bird behaviour. Fortunately for us we had Hari Om ji as our guide who has immense knowledge to share on the birds seen around Sattal. He is extremely patient, polite and so down to earth. He could see the spark in my daughter too and took interest in showing her birds with lot of patience. Thanks for an amazing experience. Look forward to my next journey with Hari Om ji.
Mr HariOm Singh is a great naturalist and an amazing company in birdwatching. I bumped into him while i was exploring sattal and we strolled into the forest on foot looking for birds. Being a naturalist myself, I learnt a lot from him and wish him all the best. Thank you
Hari Om is a great guy, very friendly, personable and knowledgeable. We had a great river trip at Chambal Sanctuary with him (March 14th 2020), and also a guided tour around the Lodge area. Saw some excellent birds and wildlife and also some fascinating insights into the local plants and their medicinal properties. Will have some wonderful memories, and have some great photos, Many Thanks!
We had a wonderful day with Hari Om soon after arriving in India. A guided walk around our lodge and then the wonderful river trip. He is an excellent birder and good company. We have lovely photos and great memories. Thanks
We had a lovely day based at chambal safari lodge with Hari Om.
We went on a morning Jeep safari looking for sarus cranes, we found them but saw so much more. For us the best parts we getting out of the Jeep and bird spotting on foot through the local area. The afternoon was a lovely river trip spotting gharial, crocs and of course lots more birds. A great guy to spend the day with. Thank you

Species spotted855A gentle and very talented and hard-working young man. Had been an asset for me on so many of my trips to Bharatpur. Wish him good luck,
I have worked with Guide Gajendra Singh for over 10 years now and can vouch for the fact that he is one of the finest guides anywhere in India, having assisted wildlife enthusiasts, birders and photographers. All the travelers who have traveled with him, have rated him as one of the finest they have worked with anywhere in India. Not only does he satisfy the average wildlife enthusiast, but he has also consistently improved his birding skills on the field, familiarizing himself with bird calls, habitats and distribution.
Gajendra is a wonderful bird guide & great wildlife expert. He is also an excellent travel companion whom you can trust while into a wildlife . Excellent knowledge about species of Birds, animals, with their natural habitat and locations. I definitely recommend him to anyone who is as enthusiastic about birds and wildlife. He has great English skills and definitely a wonderful experience traveling with him.
Gajendra is an amazing guide and great wildlife expert. I definitely recommend him to anyone who is as enthusiastic and caring about birds and wildlife as he is. English skills are great and had a wonderful time traveling with him.
Gajendra is a good guide as well as he does bird watching very well. I am going with him for the last 3 years and I have been having good experience with him.

Species spotted1047We went to Bharatpur for the bird sanctuary & met Lokesh ji at IbisHouse farm stay (where we'd booked a suite) & got to know about his experience & his knowledge by Mukesh ji, his elder brother. We subsequently decided to hire him as our guide & we are so glad that we did! Lokesh ji is a very humble, patient & competent guide. He's also a photographer, as we got to know when we asked him to take the photographs of the birds we saw (as we are all novices, but eager to learn). I will highly recommend anyone who is planning on watching birds in Rajasthan or Uttarakhand, to hire Lokesh ji as your guide. You won't regret, I promise.
Spectacular birding was experienced with Lokesh in Bharatpur at Keoladeo Park and environs! To be accompanied by an expert guide with a sporting scope enhanced our birding adventure tremendously. Lokesh quickly identified multiple species and ever so quickly had the spotting scope set up for ease of viewing. He also assisted with photos taken through the scope as he is an experienced photographer as well! I heartily recommend him as a birding guide who is also very pleasant in all his interactions. In total, over two days we identified 93 species with his assistance!
Additionally we stayed at his family's guest house and all our needs were wonderfully taken care of. Thanks for a most memorable trip, Lokesh!
We booked IbisHouse Farm for 5 nights.
We arrived in Bharatpur very early but it was no problem at all. Lokesh welcomed us very warmly before 9 a.m.
We got coffee and were taken to our splendid room by his brother Chendar who cooked our meals and cleaned our room. The next morning Lokesh guided us in Keoladeo park and thanks to him we could make some very nice pictures. Lokesh is a very experienced guide but even more important a very friendly person. His father- Ratan Singh- and his older brother Mukesh are also very friendly as well as the rest of his family. The location of Ibis House is superb.
This was definitely our best experience in India!
We met Lokesh during our stay at Ibis Farm house stay. We had a wonderful time and added 1 night to this stay because we loved it!
The first day we went for a walk around the area and because of Lokesh we saw a lot of little birds and were really surprised how many. Lokesh can hear and see them all! The 2nd day we went for a walk/ride in Keoladeo and also there Lokesh was a remarkable guide. Calm, joyful, and with respect.
We loved the atmosphere he and his family created.
I recommend to take this guide for all your nature walks around Bharatpur and more!
Lokesh looked after my partner and I at Keoladeo earlier this year. Not only is he an expert guide but most helpful and friendly company. I have no hesitation in recommending his services
