We offer you the best of Chitwan – a wilderness of rich ecosystem that includes mammals, birds, reptiles and water animals of numerous kinds. The highlights of this park are the 500 Asian one-horned rhinoceros (One-Horned Rhino) and some hundred nocturnal Royal Bengal Tigers that live in the dense forests of the park. You will discover a lost world of towering trees and twisting vines, of pre-historic rhino and lumbering elephants, crocodiles, pythons and deer; brilliantly colored birds and if you are fortunate – the superb Royal Bengal Tiger.

Sharing home with these are other animals like rhesus monkey, grey langur, and leopards. We also introduce you to another most important factor adding to the Chitwan experience – the colorful Tharu Culture, their way of living, culture and tradition and heart touching Tharu Dance. Be prepared for activities like jungle safari on elephant back, jungle walk, canoe ride, jeep drive, bathing and swimming with elephants and much more.
