Nepal Birding Tour Reviews

A friend of mine and I visited Nepal for 4 days in January. We employed the services of Pratap Gurung as a bird guide. What a stroke of good luck. We are serious birders and had a list of targets we wanted to see. Pratrap worked hard and found us all we wanted with his excellent eyesight and hearing. With his knowledge he showed us several birds we had not even expected to see. Additionally he was extremely accommodating, including providing excellent lodging and meals. As a real surprise, an unplanned opportunity arose and he was able to arrange for us to take a flight to see Mt Everest at very short notice. We are very happy with Pratrap and would give him the highest testimony for anyone wanting to bird in Nepal.

Nepal Birding Tour met all of our expectations. The leader Pratap was an effective leader who knows his birds and where to find them. He took care of all the details, and I would recommend him to anyone. In addition, Nepal more than lived up to our expectations. We also were able to take a flight near Mt Everest which was a real highlight.

Pratap is an excellent birding guide with deep understanding of the bird and other fauna of Nepal. His skills include outstanding knowledge of bird calls, making identification quick and accurrate. As a person he is cheerful, helpful, supportive and very organised. All this make him a prime person to discover the richness of Nepali avifauna with and turns this experience into a complete pleasure. I highly recommend Pratap Gurung to anyone that wants to discover the birds of Nepal.

Wow, what started as a random recommendation turned into an incredible once-in-a-lifetime experience! Pratap from Nepal Birding Tour was recommended to me as a guide by another traveller who knew that I was about to visit Nepal and that I enjoyed watching birds. I initially booked Pratap for a one week trek through Langtang Valley, but we ended up several weeks travelling through much of Nepal, spotting many species of wildlife. As a tour guide: Pratap is experienced. He knows what he is doing. He also has an extensive network around Nepal and knows how to deal with unforeseen circumstances. He is attentive, friendly and will take care of things. As a wildlife guide: Pratap showed me almost 300 different species of bird in Nepal (that's about one-third of all the species in Nepal). He has a great eye and knowledge about the wildlife in Nepal. Pratap guided me through Langtang Valley, Lumbini area, Chitwan National Park, Bardiya National Park, and the Mohare Danda trek in the Annapurna region. With his guidance, I was able to see an incredible variety of birds in these areas as well as wild rhino, elephant, crocodile, leopard, black bear and even a wild tiger! Trust me, if you're into wildlife in general, or specifically interested in birding, book Pratap as your guide. You will have an incredible time.
