Chitwan National Park is the first national park in Nepal. It is a conserved area that is home to some of the most exotic and rare species of animals in Nepal.  Home to 68 mammal species, 543 species of birds, and plentiful wonderful vegetation, Chitwan National Park is a treasure not only for Nepal, but for the world at large.

Chitwan National Park is only a day's drive from the capital city of Kathmandu. It is located in a place that is commonly referred to as Sauraha. Within the national park, you can see some endangered species of animals like Royal Bengal Tiger and the One-horned Rhinoceros.

2 Nights 3 Days Chitwan Jungle Safari Tour is also extremely popular amongst bird watchers. The variety of bird species whose sweet tunes are bound to delight you include the endangered Bengal florican, the vulnerable lesser adjutant, Grey-crowned Prinia, swamp francolin, grass warblers, slender-billed babblers, egrets, bitterns, storks and kingfishers. The park provides a wonderful breeding ground for two-thirds of Nepal's globally threatened species.

You will also be able to experience the wonderful culture of the Tharu community in Chitwan. This includes the Tharu cultural stick dance that you will witness after a day in the jungle.

You will also take part in kayaking in the Rapti River, which provides an unforgettable experience paddling amongst the crocodiles sunbathing on the river banks. You will be able to view crocodiles basking motionlessly under the sun, often with their snouts open wide. This makes for a wonderful photographic moment.

The most exciting part of the Chitwan Tour is the Jungle Safari, which gives you a remarkable experience with up-close and personal view of the habitats of the various wild animals in their natural environment.

You can go for the jungle safari tour either on the back of an elephant or in a jeep. Riding an elephant’s back gives you an excellent vantage point to see other animals. If you are looking to enjoy the tour of the jungle in the safety and comfort of a jeep, you can do that too.

Customer Reviews

  • ABC And Chitwan Safari

    - Albert, Australia

    After completing my trek in Annapurna Base Camp, I wanted to get a feel of a different facet of Nepal. So I asked Sublime trails, who had arranged my ABC trek, to arrange a jungle safari tour in Chitwan. It was a completely different experience to trekking. It was simply satisfying. The animals, the Tharu Stick dance, and birds added a magical touch to the tour. You should be here once in your lifetime.

  • Jungle Safari Tour

    - Joy Moh, Singapore

    I have been an avid bird watcher since as far as I can remember. My wife also felt similarly about birds. My kids are animal fanatics who can't get enough of watching the channel “Animal Planet”. So I wanted to give them a glimpse of some of their favorite animals while we were holidaying in Nepal. We booked the 2 Nights 3 days Chitwan Jungle Safari Tour with Sublime Trials. I was as animated as my family members watching these animals. I was hoping that the tour never ended. The kids started to ask me when we would be back again for this tour. I hope we will be there again in the near future. You should join too.
