The first national park, "Chitwan," is situated in southern central Nepal, covering 932 sq. km. with deciduous forests overlooking the floodplains of the Narayani, Rapti, and Reu rivers. Since the park was declared a UNESCO Natural Heritage Site in 1979, it has gained popularity among Nepalese travelers. Chitwan Jungle Safari is the best destination for those who want to explore the jungle and its inhabitants of Nepal. The park is a 21 km drive from Bharatpur, which is 20 minutes by air, or 146 km by tourist bus from Kathmandu. There are many comfort resorts, hotels, and lodges in Chitwan.
The Wildlife Safari in Chitwan offers a wilderness of rich ecosystems that includes mammals, birds, reptiles, and several species of water animals. The Major Highlights of this park are 500 Asian one-horned rhinoceros and some hundred nocturnal Royal Bengal tigers. In the park, you will discover a lost world of towering trees and twisting vines, pre-historic rhinos and lumbering elephants, crocodiles, pythons, and deer; brilliantly colored birds; and, if you are fortunate, the superb Royal Bengal Tiger. Other animals, like rhesus monkeys, grey langurs, deer, leopards, wild cats, etc., share their home. In addition, another important factor of Jungle Safari in Chitwan is the colorful Tharu culture, their way of living, culture, tradition, and heart-touching Tharu dance. Not only that prehistoric, but here you are offered a chance at many activities like Jungle Safari on elephant back, jungle walk, canoe ride, jeep drive, etc. that live in the dense forests of the park. However, we at Nepal Mother House Treks recommend you choose a Jeep safari instead of an elephant ride, as we humans are animal lovers.
This Jungle Safari gives you the chance to spend the night in the best resort accommodations, which include cozy twin beds and fully air-conditioned rooms with attached toilet facilities that operate on solar and electric energy. The oval dining hall serves Nepalese, Chinese, and Continental cuisines specially prepared by our jungle chef, where hygiene is his main concern. It is possible to come back to Kathmandu by tourist bus or by air. We “Nepal Mother House Treks” organize your Chitwan Wildlife Safari considering your desires and schedule throughout the year.
