We have been with Shankar on 2 trips to Nepal (Lowlands and Langtang Trek), trips to India (South India And amans and Northern India) and one to Sri Lanka. Wherever we go to with Shankar, he is a great companion and excellent birdguide and his organizing skills always very helpful. He is without doubt one of the best guides we ever had the honour to travel with, his brilliance in the field is outstanding, his knowledge of the birds and their vocalization exceptional. Shankar has a great enthusiasm for nature and birds and never gets tired to show us as many birds as possible. We can only highly recommend him and are proud to call him friend.
I can thoroughly recommend Shankar Tiwari for birding tours to Nepal and other countries. He is an excellent bird guide and a very kind, considerate person. He leads tours with ease and is helpful and personable. I have been with him birding in Nepal, Malaysia and India on several occasions and I have travelled with many other bird guides, and he is one of the best. He knows his country well and the birds also.
Travel Nepal organised a fantastic trip to the highlights of Nepal. Shankar’s knowledge of the bird species in Nepal is amazing and I have learnt so much just from being alongside him on some wonderful adventures. He is a true gentleman and host and will always try his hardest to make your trip is a memorable experience. I look forward to many more exciting adventures in the future.
Diana and I are middle-class, senior American women, who love watching wildlife, being in nature and learning about other cultures and ways of being in the world. We recently spent 25 days (February 15-March 11, 2026) adventuring in Nepal with Shankar Tiwari of Travel Nepal.
I have no hesitation in stating that Shankar Tiwari is the finest guide in all of Nepal. His understanding and knowledge of nature is second to none and he is a credit to the country of Nepal.
We visited Nepal to see the rhinos and of course as many birds as possible. And we were lucky to have Shankar as our guide. We saw a lot of rhinos and more birds than we could ever have had imagined.
I wrote to Shankar Tiwari just about 10 days before my trip to Nepal and was lucky that he was free. Very quick I got a clear answer and some proposals. When I arrived in Nepal a change was necessary which didn’t made any problem at all.
Remote Khaptad National Park, North west of Nepal. I experienced remoteness, wonderful landscape and mountain views, special flora and fauna, magnificent birding and people so friendly, happy to welcome foreigner. I was the only western visiter in 2013 and was welcomed accordingly.
I recently had the good fortune to go birdwatching in Nepal with my friend Dr Robert Sothman in Nepal. I contacted Tragopan Trek / Travel Nepal Pvt Ltd., a contact found through Birding Pals Nepal. We had excellent feed-back and responses to all our e-mails which gave us confidence to book a bird watching tour through them. We were met at Kathmandu airport by our guide Shankar and had a very comfortable night at the Royal Singi Hotel, Kathmandu. Our tour started with a three day trip to Chitawan staying at Tigerland Safari Resort. This was an excellent place to stay. Shankar proved to be an outstanding guide. His ability to pick up birds in dense vegetation was truly remarkable. Also his identification skills on those tricky Phylloscopus warblers was outstanding as well as an outstanding ear for bird calls. After three days we moved on to Pokhara to stay at the delightful Fishtail Lodge. It had a very interesting way of accessing the lodge, check it out on the internet. Here our target birds were the only Nepal endemic, the Spiny Babbler, Turdoides nipalensis and a collection of vultures. Again Shankar did not disappoint in getting us the babbler plus excellent views of most of the vultures. Lastly we did a seven day trek in the Lantang Valley from Daunche to Lauribinayak and return. Here Shankar engaged a porter to carry most of or gear up to 10ksper person, the rest was sent back to their office. The porter we used, Bishnu was an outstanding individual and certainly added to our trip. We trekked up birding to Lauribinayak around 3900 metres high. The birding was outstanding but a bit tough going at times for us two pensioners (69 and 74!) Younger people should manage it fine. We finished the trek at Daunche for an overnight stay before setting off the next day for Kathmandu and the flight home the following day. The trip was fantastic. I recommend any serious bird watcher to consider Nepal on their itinerary. Nepal only has one endemic, the Spiny Bababler but the number and density of birds was truly amazing. We recorded over 360 species in the 14 days birding. Quite a truly amazing total which included such great birds as Monal, Blood Pheasant, Satyr Tragopan, Grandala etc. Also the guide to use is definitely Shankar, his dedication to making sure he managed to get as much out of the trip as possible was outstanding. If you consider going to Nepal then use Shankar it he is a great guide and Nepal is a great place to go birding
My review on Birding Travel at Facebook: I posted here several months ago looking for a bird guide in Nepal during monsoon season and based on recommendations from Bruce N Berman and some additional searching, we found Shankar Tiwari, we were extraordinarily lucky (at another time of year, I suspect he would have been fully booked). Shakar is an exceptional guide: deeply knowledgeable, gracious, patient, and genuinely passionate about birds. He is involved in reviewing eBird records for Nepal, and his knowledge of both the birds and the local habitats is remarkable. we spent two days full days with him at Shivapuri National Park and Mt. Phulchowki, and I was also able to spend a few hours birding with him at Ranibari Community Forestin Kathmandu. He seemed to know exactly where to look for everything, including guiding us to four different kinds of Owls. What I especially appreciated was his generosity as an educator. At Ranibari, when people walking through the park became curious about what we were looking at, Shankar happily stopped to show them the birds and explain what they were seeing. He was also wonderfully patient with me and my camera. if I wanted to stay with a bird until I finally got the shot I was hoping for, he was every bit as invested in the process as I was. Shankar is still building out his commercial website at www.wildernessnepal.com, and in the mean time he told me I could share his WhatsApp contact with anyone here who is interested. I recommend him without reservation. I also want to thank those of you who provided recommendations. Also – it was monsoon. Was it wet? Sometimes, but only sometimes. the first day, pretty wet, but the others, mostly fair. I would not fear monsoon birding.
