An Adventure Tourism Consultant's Angle: The 'Expedition' Focus 🗺️ Instead of viewing it just as a 'tour,' frame it as a premium 'Ornithological Expedition' aimed at serious birders who want to tick off a checklist. This justifies a much higher price point. 1. High-Value Packages: Offer multi-day, all-inclusive packages (5-7 days) that cover food, accommodation, transport (reliable 4x4 vehicles), and all permits. For example, a "Sikkim/Arunachal Pradesh High-Altitude Birding Circuit." 2. Specialized Guiding: Partner with 1-2 recognized ornithologists or field biologists. The customer is paying for access to their knowledge and for a better chance to see rare species. Use their name/reputation in your marketing. 3. Client Management: Cater to the specific needs of international birders (e.g., dietary restrictions, comfortable, clean accommodation even in remote areas). Provide professional checklists and logbooks for their sightings. 4. Community Impact: Align your business with local conservation efforts. State clearly that a percentage of your fee goes back to the local community or forest protection funds. This is a strong selling point for eco-conscious clients and helps you build a positive relationship with the local authorities. This is a niche-within-a-niche, but for serious birders, the demand for this kind of specialized, no-hassle, expert-led experience is very high.
