The Taj Mahal left us quiet. The tiger sighting took our breath away. The birds, one after another, kept us watching. India opened up slowly. Each place had its own rhythm. In Agra we stood in silence, in Ranthambore we listened to the forest, and in Bharatpur we followed the skies. Nothing felt rushed or forced. We were not moving through a checklist. We were present in the moment. The birding was among the best I have ever done. The wildlife was unforgettable. The people I met felt like friends. With Endemic Explorer, everything felt in place. The travel, the comfort, the local insight—each part supported the other. It worked without effort. It was the kind of journey you do not forget.
