“Our trip to Agra, Bharatpur and Chambal River with Travelwith.in, organized by Kunal, was a real highlight of our India journey. From the very beginning, Kunal impressed us with his thoughtful proposals and honest feedback on our own suggestions, helping us design an itinerary that perfectly matched our interests. What truly stood out was his genuine enthusiasm for India's culture and nature — his stories and insights brought every place we visited to life. Everything ran smoothly, and we always felt well taken care of. I would highly recommend Travelwith.in and Kunal for anyone looking for a personal, well-organized, and inspiring experience in India.”

“This was our 4th School Trip with Kunal Jain & all I can say is that "it only gets better each time". Keeping in mind that our students have 'Special Needs', Kunal goes out of his way with immaculate planning n attention to every little detail. This time it was Agra n Bharatpur Bird Sanctuary. Right from the pick up from the Station to lodging arrangements, everything was seamless n perfectly planned. In the two n a half days that we had in Agra, we managed to do quite a lot of sight seeing without getting tired or stressed. The children thoroughly enjoyed themselves n I'm sure learnt a lot from this trip.”

“41 of us, special needs students and teachers, went on a trip to Agra and Bharatpur with Kunal. It was wonderfully organized with great accommodation, food and travel. Our students have bonded so well with Kunal and are looking forward to traveling with him again.”

November to March is the season — when tens of thousands of migratory birds gather at Keoladeo. The winter mornings are cool and clear, and the birding is exceptional.
The sanctuary fills with migrants in winter, so the cool months are by far the best.
On foot, by cycle or by e-rickshaw — Bharatpur is one of the most pedestrian-friendly reserves in India, with no jeeps disturbing the marsh.
Sarus cranes, painted storks, herons, spoonbills, eagles, owls and a huge range of wintering ducks and waders. Keoladeo is one of the world's great wetland bird sites. Sightings vary with the season and water levels.
