Private Forest and Western Ghats Birding Day Trip
A private ten-hour forest circuit through Bondla Wildlife Sanctuary and Bhagwan Mahaveer National Park, focused on Goa’s Western Ghats birdlife.
About this tour
Explore two of Goa’s principal forest birding areas on a private full-day circuit. Bondla Wildlife Sanctuary and Bhagwan Mahaveer National Park introduce the wooded slopes and valleys of the Western Ghats, where careful listening and patient trail birding are central to the experience.
The guide adapts stops and walking time to current activity rather than following a fixed checklist. Forest conditions can vary through the year, so the most productive sections are selected for the date, weather and participant pace. The ten-hour format allows time for vehicle transfers as well as unhurried observation in both protected areas.
The published rate covers guiding and a private car for one to three guests. Avocet & Peregrine limits its general birding groups to four people under its ethical birding policy. Forest entry arrangements, meals and any additional costs are confirmed with the final proposal.
