Chitwan National Park is a vast natural expanse that extends across the southern part of Nepal. It came into existence as the National Park in 1973 and prestige to be the first national park in the country. Quickly, it came under the protection of UNESCO in 1984, seeing the potential of conserving the threatened species that reside here.

It stretches to 952.63 sq. km, adjacent to the Indian border, and is covered by the lush tropical forest, and is crossed by the waterways of Narayani, Reu, and Rapti.

It is a refuge for 50 fine mammal species such as the Bengal tiger, leopards, rhinoceroses, bears, hyenas, and wild boars. It also shelters 525 bird species, making it a dream paradise for every birdwatcher.

It is also home to 55 reptiles and amphibians, including the Gharials, Muggers (threatened species of crocodiles), King Cobra, and Pythons. The rivers of Chitwan are also a safe haven for the adorable little freshwater dolphins and numerous aquatic birds.

Our Chitwan tour package will start as soon as you arrive in the vicinity of the park. Our guide will then soon begin your introduction program with a visit to the Sauraha Village nestled nearby.

This charming village is inhabited by the indigenous Tharu people who speak their own dialect, practice Buddhism and Hinduism, and also act as the guardians of the Park, looking after it and its flora and fauna.

Their extraordinary customs make them a focal attraction for curious tourists. Their residence, made from clay, is beautifully adorned with delightful floral paintings. They are also immune to the bite of mosquitoes and so to malaria.

The excursion will then proceed to the nearby elephant stable, where you can be very up close with these exceptional yet delicate creatures. As the evening starts to set in, our guide will take you to one of the outstandingly appealing Sauraha Viewpoints.

Located in the heart of the forest beside the beautiful shore of the Narayani, you can see the sun slowly hiding itself beneath the horizon. The orange-lit skyline turns into a beautiful canvas for numerous birds flapping their wings to return to their nest.

The day will then end with the amazing Tharu cultural show that will enthrall all your senses. On the second day of our 3-day Chitwan tour package, our guide will lead you through the unique Sal forest of the park, where you will see tal,l gigantic trees, listen to the sound of Nepalese nature, and see colorful birds flying, creating a dazzling nature show.

Followed by the gentle canoeing over the Rapti River, you will continue on to the Elephant breeding center, where you can learn about these magnificent creatures. Your adventure then continues with a thrilling safari where you will witness the park’s wild yet beautiful specimens.

After this captivating experience, you will have the chance to bathe the majestic elephants. The tour will then end as you return to your next destination.

Truly, Chitwan National Park will surprise you with its beauty and atmosphere, and we, in turn, will make sure that your Chitwan tour package is comfortable, safe, and unforgettable.

There are a bunch of activities that you can do in the Chitwan National Park, but within the short span of two days, we suggest you not miss out on the following:

Elephant Back Safari

One of the activities that first comes to mind as soon as we hear about the Chitwan National Park is the elephant safari. Most of the tourists like to go on an elephant as it is one of the best ways to see some rare and endangered animals directly in their habitat, which is difficult to spot if you go on a jeep.

The elephant will silently and gracefully move through the jungle, thus not scaring away the rhinoceros and other fine specimens of the park. For this excursion, the square-shaped sofa-like structure is saddled on the elephant’s back, and three people with the Mahout sit on it.

If you take this option, please try not to unbalance the weight of the saddle so the animal can walk more comfortably. This type of excursion seems to be quite cruel to the animals as they definitely used to be tortured in the past for tourists.

Since more awareness has been raised among the caretakers of the animals, they are now loved and cared for more. However, it is still quite difficult for the animal to endure the weight and walk for at least 5 long hours.

Jeep Safari

This is one of the valid and safest options if you don’t want to make a lot of effort to see animals in the Park. It is suitable if you have mobility problems or are not in good physical shape.

Although the noise of the engine can scare off animals, you will still have the chance to have the sight of rhinoceroses, deer, and monkeys. However, you will get to encounter scenes of the daily life of the Tharu population and probably the unforgettable scene of an elephant bathing with its Mahout.

Trekking in the Jungle

Walking in the jungle, in fact, is the least intrusive and most natural way to get into the park, and the chances of seeing animals are also higher. You may be able to see rhinos bathing in waterholes, their young babies playing with each other, or even the Bengal Tiger hiding under the bush.

It may seem dangerous and risky as you may come face-to-face with these animals, which can suddenly attack. However, you will have the mandatory company of two experienced guides who will not only show you the way and take you to the most elusive corners of the park but also look after your safety.

They will also give you a series of instructions, among which you should keep in mind to position yourself in a higher place than the animals.

Canoe ride on the Rapti  River

It is one of the must-include activities in the park, which is not only a thrill in itself (as you will be floating on the canoe made by digging out the tree trunk) but also gives you the incredible opportunity to see the birds that inhabit the area and the crocodiles along with the freshwater dolphins.

The canoe can accommodate about 10 people, and it is an essential activity to do in Chitwan.

Visit the Wildlife Display and Information Center

The wildlife display and information center is the place where the exhibition is held, where there are animals in formalin, such as elephants, pythons, crocodiles, rhinos, tiger skin, excrement, footprint casts, and photographic stories of wild animals caught and saved.

The center is situated just 1 kilometer from the Sauraha center, and the fee to enter is only 50 Nepali rupees per person.

Excursion to the Elephant Breeding and Training Center

The elephant breeding and training center is also one of the prominent attractions inside the Chitwan National Park. And, we suggest you must take a tour here to see the adorable little baby elephants who with their mother receive training.

They are also used for conservation efforts such as patrolling the park, monitoring the animals, conducting the rescues of the animals, and even transporting food and essential items for the forest rangers.

Here, you can see the friendly bonding of these animals with their caretakers. The pregnant elephants are well cared for while the babies upon reaching two years are trained for conservation purposes.

The center is just 3 kilometers from the heart of Sauraha and is open to tourists during the following hours:

Morning: 6 AM to 10 AM

Afternoon: 4 PM to 6 PM

Admission fee: NPR 200 per person.

Visit to the Elephant Stable

The elephant stable located near the park is one of the finest locations to see the state-owned adult elephants, which are used for conservation purposes in the park.

It remains open from 7 am to 10 am and again from 4 pm to 6 pm. The rest of the time, you can see these elephants roaming in the jungle, grazing and resting on their own.

See and Participate in Bathing the Elephant

In the calm waters of Narayani and Rapti, you can see the Mahout (Caretaker) and his elephant having their time. Usually, the Mahout stays on the back of the elephant, and as soon as it reaches the water, it begins to cool off by fishing from the river with its trunk and blowing a real rain into the air, which becomes a game for both the elephant and the man.

You can watch this spectacle from the shore or even participate in it which can be a thrilling experience. But first, you have to convince the elephant the act by feeding him bananas.

One of the greatest scenes will occur when the elephant immerses itself almost entirely in the water. A spectacle of gushing water and trumpeting joy is unforgettable.

Bathing an elephant, however, has to be paid for which costs you 200 rupees per person. You can partake in this act every day from 10:30 to 11:30 in the morning.

Jungle Stay

You can enhance your jungle thrill by staying right in the middle of the forest. It is also one of the non-intrusive and adventurous ways to see wild animals, especially at night time.

There are wooden towers built inside the park where you will be accompanied by an expert guide. The towers are strong and around 15 to 20 feet high above the ground so you are well-protected.

Tharu Village Excursion

Chitwan along with its natural reserve park and villages is not only special because of its wildlife but also for the indigenous communities who made this region their home for centuries. They are the Tharu community who are the descendants of Mongolians and live mainly in Sauraha and its neighboring villages.

They are known for their typical unique form of dance, arts, mud houses, and remarkable resistance to malaria. Remarkably, they are very clean people, and no dust can be seen on their beautifully made courtyards.

They make what they need with their own hands and mainly live in agriculture, with a growing involvement in tourism. You can either explore these villages on your own, by bicycle, motorbike, or through organized tours.

The organized tour however will allow you to watch their cultural dance performances. And, please do not forget to visit the Tharu Cultural Museum- a small ethnographic museum dedicated to this community and its heritage.

In addition, you will also get to see the unique landscape that is adorned with beautiful rice terraces and rivers. We therefore recommend that you do not limit yourself to doing only safaris in the park.

Of course, the Himalayas and the remote trekking adventures are enchanting but Nepal also has a wealth of other remarkable destinations. For such a truly exceptional experience, we invite you to join our Chitwan Package tour- an exciting journey to discover the timeless beauty of Chitwan National Park within a span of just 2 days.
