About This Tour

About This Tour

The Chitwan Safari Day Tour packs the essential Chitwan experience into a single day — a jeep safari through the national park, a canoe ride on the Rapti River, and a visit to a Tharu village. While a multi-day stay is ideal, this day tour gives travellers with limited time a genuine taste of Nepal’s premier wildlife destination.

The morning jeep safari covers grassland and forest habitats where one-horned rhinoceros, spotted deer, langur monkeys, and numerous bird species are commonly sighted. The canoe ride floats past basking mugger and gharial crocodiles. A village visit introduces you to the Tharu community — the indigenous people of the Terai lowlands.
