I am just back from a tour to Dandeli with the Nemophilist team - Tushar and Siddharth. What started with much anticipation, ended with a lifetime of experiences, learning, fun and memories for me. I highly recommend that if you would like to learn about nature/wildlife/birding or just be in the nature, take a trip with them. What you will find most inspiring is the "purpose" with which this team operates.They are genuinely knowledgeable about the subject, go out of their way to help you, fun guys to be with and most importantly they do what they do with lots of heart.I am already looking forward to my next outing with them.

Been to Dandeli with the Nemophilist. A well organised tour with Siddhartha who have immense knowledge about birds and their behaviors. Tushar, such a caring and friendly personality filled the tour more fun and laughter. Overall a great trip, returned back with good bird sightings and loads of images and memories. Looking forward to go for more tours with them. Thank you Sid and Tushar for all the care and arrangements.

I had been on a 3 days birding tour with the Nemophilist recently and it was an incredible experience. Mr. Siddhartha has a very good knowledge and understanding about the wildlife and nature , and he made the birding more informative by adding a lot of details to it. So on the whole, along with good photographs we also had so much fun shoulder to shoulder. Would definitely join them for an other birding session in the near future.

नेमोफिलिस्टची सात्ताल व मूनश्यारीची पक्षी निरीक्षण टूर खूपच सुंदर झाली. अनेक वेगवेगळ्या प्रकारचे पक्षी मनसोक्त बघायला मिळाले. श्री. सिद्धार्थ शर्मा हे एक पक्षी तज्ज्ञ आहेतच, परंतु एक चांगला मित्र, सहप्रवासी व सगळ्यांची काळजी घेणारा असा माणूस आहे. लांब पल्ल्याच्या प्रवासात आम्हांला कंटाळा येणार नाही याची पुरेपूर काळजी त्यांनी घेतली. हिमालयातील पक्षी बघण्याचा पुरेपूर आणि मनसोक्त आनंद सिद्धार्थने आम्हाला मिळवून दिला.

Lovely bird watching tour experience to NE india with the nemophilist with well experienced birding guide, comfortable accommodation, good transport vehicle provided.

Going on the Dandeli trip with The Nemophilist has been an eye-opening experience. I say eye-opening, because being with master birder Siddharth on this trip has given me new eyes to not just spot birds, but also appreciate the beauty of the birdwatching experience. "In what is otherwise a graveyard of trees, the hornbill finds a flourishing habitat," he said, as we entered the Timber Depot in Dandeli, where numerous hornbills go about their life cycles, unmindful of the human activity going on about them. This context, so important to preserve the silence and sanctity of the activity, is preserved carefully by The Nemophilist. Don't expect lavish accommodations, luxurious travel arrangements, five-star service. Instead, what you'll get is a simple, earthy, authentic, close-to-nature experience that is, and should be, the natural culmination of birding (Once you've had the herbal tea, lemonade and post-meal digestive drink made with the fresh ingredients of Hakki Mane's kitchen garden, you'll forget the uninspired food served in fancy restaurants). The trip served up all flavours - the meditative silence of birding, the chatty camaraderie among the group of birders (Siddharth leading the pack with his good humour) and the thrill of furtively chasing a Trogon pair through a thicket of woods for a better view. With the expertise and good-natured guidance that SIddharth brings to the table, one comes away enriched, knowing a little more than one used to, a little more struck by the wonder of the bird world around us. I didn't have a camera with me (the trip caters very well to photographers), yet have carried back memorable impressions in my mind. Looking forward to many more adventures with the Nemophilist!

Went to Dandeli birding trip. It was a very good experience overall. Sidharth (From Nemophilist Team) was our main POC throughout, he organised, coordinated and made all the effort to make sure, everything goes smooth and we cover all the checklist which has been planned. He had a ton of knowledge for all kinds of birds, their behaviours and I must say that has helped a lot to identify and capture lots of beautiful moments. So a big thank you to him 😃🙏. Other than the birding, I enjoyed the place where we stayed - the hospitality was truly commendable, and of-course Not to forget the delicious food 😋 😃

Fantastic experience. I travelled with them to Nagzira and most recently Dandeli. Very well organised and thorough knowledge given. ❤️❤️❤️

As the name suggests...."someone with a love or fondness for forests, woods, or woodland scenery, or someone who often visits them". The entire team literally lives upto the meaning...they not only guide but also make sure all their guests get impeccable snaps, knowledge and experience....Guided tours and learning expeditions are highly recommended with "The Nemophilist"

I have had the privilege of joining two tours with Nemophilist and the experience has been extremely enriching. The tours are well curated to ensure great wildlife & birding experience. Siddharth is immensely knowledgeable about birds, their behaviors and their calling – amazing to see how quickly he spots and identifies a bird. The tour environment is lively and pleasant which makes you feel at home and you feel surrounded by friends. Participants also get great on-field guidance on photography and on ways to approach wildlife - this has helped me improve my photography skills. I look forward to many more enriching experiences with “The Nemophilist”.
