“I had an amazing experience at the park in Chitwan. The hotel was fantastic—spacious rooms with plenty of space to sleep multiple people. I had a great terrace with a beautiful view. The hotel was well-maintained and very clean. The staff were incredible, always attentive and ready to help. The guides were wonderful, and I had a great time with them. One of the highlights of my stay was spending a night in the jungle, which was absolutely exceptional. I saw so many animals, and it was truly a memorable experience. I had booked a 4-day package, and I think 4 days is perfect to fully enjoy all the activities…”

“I booked this tour after a 5N/6D ABC tour and its the perfect activity. Very relaxing, very different from hiking and you get to see so many wild animals. The tour was well organized from start to finish. I stayed in Royal Tiger hotel for 4 days and it was excellent. The hotel prepared my itinerary for 4 days, arranged for guides and tours, the staff are very friendly, the food are delicious. Highly recommended!”

Full-day Chitwan jeep safari with hotel pickup, guide, park permits, pack lunch, and a possible Rapti River cruise for wildlife.

“My friend and I booked this full day Jeep safari in Chitwan and it was a lot of fun! Our guide was so knowledgeable about all the flora and fauna (as a person who loves birds, I was so excited to add more to my life list!). I’m glad we did the full day because the animals seem to come out more for water and food at dusk. As mentioned before, we saw tons of birds plus a baby rhino and two female rhinos!
