Asian-Style Safari: 2 Nights/3 Days

Nepal is home to numerous national parks and conservation areas, with Chitwan National Park being the most prominent. This park has achieved remarkable success in conserving species like tigers, rhinos, and gharials. It is unique for housing both the world’s largest terrestrial mammal, the wild elephant, and the world’s smallest terrestrial mammal, the pygmy shrew.

Chitwan National Park is also a paradise for birdwatchers, boasting 544 recorded species of birds, including 22 globally threatened species such as the critically endangered Bengal Florican, Slender-billed Vulture, White-rumped Vulture, and Red-headed Vulture. The park is home to 68 species of mammals, 56 species of herpetofauna, and 126 species of fish.

For those seeking adventure, a 2-night, 3-day safari offers an ideal Asian-style jungle safari experience. This package includes accommodation, meals, nature walks, open jeep safaris, and a serene drift down the river in a dugout canoe searching for aquatic wildlife, bird watching and visits to elephant breeding center. The visit to local indigenous Tharu community settlements provide culturally immersive experiences - all guided by highly experienced naturalists.

Similar packages are available in Bardia National Park, Suklaphanta National Park, and Koshi Tappu Wildlife Reserve, the latter being especially popular for bird watching trips.
