horned rhino, Sloth Beers, Gharial and many more. The park is easily accessible from 2
main tourist destination Kathmandu and Pokhara; by air, bus or after short river rafting.
It has been known as most popular jungle tour destination in Nepal. Just outside the
buffer zone of the park is home of culturally rich Tharu people. Along with the jungle
tour on elephant back safari, cultural tours into those Tharu villages are worthy. Short
package tour of 2-4 day's combined with 1-2 day's rafting trip is very popular to visit
the park. People who don't want to get into raft and thrill in the river rapids can go
directly to the park by ground transport or by air.
Tour to Royal Bardiya National Park:
The Bardiya Park is situated in the far west terai of Nepal. From the wildlife
and eco-system point of view, this park is not significantly different than Chitwan but,
this is less explored and not crowded, because of it's distance from Kathmandu or from
Pokhara. Tour in Bardiya demands 1 or 2 days more than in Chitwan because the Royal
Bardiya covers more area than Chitwan Park. The 10 day's world class river rafting trip
ends right at the Bardiya park or one can take long drive from Kathmandu or fly from
Kathmandu to Nepalgunj to reach in the park.
