The fabulous Bharatpur trip




Work was hectic and everyone needed a break - that's when the travel planners planned a two day getaway for themselves! Off to Bharatpur was the Compass team to do what they do best - travel and have a quick fun trip.

One of the finest bird parks in the world, Bharatpur Bird Sanctuary (Keoladeo Ghana National Park) is a reserve that offers protection to faunal species as well. Nesting indigenous water- birds as well as migratory water birds and waterside birds, this sanctuary is also inhabited by Sambar, Chital, Nilgai and Boar. And to our mighty surprise we managed to spot a sambar on our way to lunch at the Forest Lodge. 

The road trip was just as fun as the trip itself. The highlights of the trip were - a cricket match between the team members and a 'musical evening' followed by team dinner where everyone came to know of their colleagues' hidden talents. Yes, we've got quite a few nightingales here at Compass!

Bharatpur will be fondly remembered as - that much needed break and a fabulous team building trip.
