Aqua Birds Unlimited Camp have been
successfully running on its 10th year

Dear Sir/Madam,

It gives me an immense pleasure to announce that Aqua Birds Unlimited Camp has been successfully running on its 10th year of operation despite the current political situation. We extend our gratitude to our valuable guests who have been our inspiration behind successful operations. Aqua Birds Unlimited Camp (www.aquabirds.com) is now a member of KGH Group of Hotels and Resorts (www.ktmgh.com), a trusted business house with 40 years of experience in hospitality industry.

We were overwhelmed by the response from our guests, who sincerely acknowledged our warm hospitality, knowledgeable staff, delicious food, and richness of birds, stunning dolphins, and mighty Wild Water Buffalos, common leopard, wolves and wild tusker. Within a decade our camp proved a must visit destination for bird watching safari, sport fishing and cultural tour. Koshi Tappu Migratory Annual Bird Festival that I have started six years ago is still going strong.

For your kind information we participated in the British Bird Watching Fair in 2005 and shall be taking part in 2006 too. If you are visiting the fair it will be a pleasure to meet you in our stall. We shall be sharing a stall with Classic Journeys, our local partner in UK. May we request you to recommend us to your friends, tour operators, research institutions, bird watching and fishing clubs so that they will also have an opportunity to experience the memorable hospitality at Aqua Birds Unlimited Camp.

For your convenience our other member hotels and resorts are located at prime location in various national parks, protected areas, wetland sites and World Heritage Sites including Kathmandu. They are:

Park Village Resort and Spa located in the foothills of Shivapuri National Park, 7 km from down town and the airport. Arguably this is one of the finest eco-friendly urban hotels in South Asia.
Maruni Sanctuary Lodge strategically located on the boundary of Chitwan National Park and native Tharu Village in the eastern part of Sauraha. (run and managed by Nepalnature.com)
Buddha Maya Garden Hotel, located right near the birthplace of lord Buddha and Lumbini Crane Santuary in Lumbini, a World Heritage Site
Pokhara View Garden Hotel, a little hotel on the lake-side overlooking the Himalayas
Kathmandu Guest House, our base-camp hotel in Kathmandu in the heart of Thamel, accredited as the most popular icon hotel in Asia.
Park Water Front Hotel By 2007, we are opening this hotel. It is located right on the upstream of Phewa Lake, the most important habitat for waterfowls and birds of prey in Pokhara.

Please feel free to write to me for any queries and looking forward to hearing from at the earliest. Looking forward to host you and yours in near future.

Sincerely,

Rajendra Suwal
