Client Testimonials

"Allwyn is the BEST (and maybe one of the best trip leaders we have had on trips). He was calm but clear in directions, he knows so much about animals, the environment, and all things India. He had a great sense of humor and really made sure each guest was okay. Even after 25+ years of guiding, he is excited every time we see an animal. Amazing!"
