Overview
The Chitwan jungle safari tour is one of the most luxurious in Nepal, offering a range of mind-blowing activities. Perhaps it’s the best destination for a tour of Nepal during the short holiday period. It is worthwhile to explore the flora and fauna of Chitwan National Park, which is a once-in-a-lifetime experience for all travellers who have visited it. The Chitwan jungle safari tour begins with either a short, scenic flight from Kathmandu to Bharatpur Airport or a 6-hour picturesque drive to Chitwan National Park.
Although Nepal has carved out a place for itself on the world map as a Himalayan Nation, what’s lesser known is that it also houses some of the best, luscious, and dense jungles to its south. If you are looking to experience a Chitwan Jungle safari tour like in the old times and unwind in the exotic wilderness, Chitwan National Park is the perfect destination.
Located in the subtropical region of southern Nepal, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is Nepal's most famous national park. It is widely known for its vast land area and rich biodiversity, which can be witnessed during a Chitwan jungle safari tour in its natural habitats. The national park boasts 544 incredible bird species, 68 mammal species, 126 fish species, and 56 herpetofauna species, among others. Be it going on a birdwatching tour with a seasoned naturalist, observing a royal Bengal tiger and one-horned rhino from an elephant’s back, or going canoeing in the Rapti River and observing the endangered Gharial crocodiles resting on the banks, the Chitwan jungle safari tour awaits you with an unmatchable wildlife and jungle safari tour experience. Moreover, you can visit the elephant breeding centre to spend time with baby elephants and end the eventful day with a striking, mysterious cultural dance by the Tharu people.

After Breakfast at the hotel in Kathmandu, our tour starts with a pleasant drive along the main highway of Nepal to Chitwan National Park, and it takes about 6 hours to reach the hotel. After arriving at the hotel in Chitwan National Park, we checked in, had welcome drinks, and received a brief briefing on the jungle safari activities. The Chitwan Jungle Safari tour includes a visit to a Tharu village, the National Park information visitor center, and a sunset spot on the banks of the Rapti River, where the best views are available. In the evening, we will be involved in the Tharu community cultural dance program or slideshow program, which is a mind-blowing experience with memorable moments of wildlife, Nature, and jungle safari tours. After finishing the Tharu culture dance program, we returned to our respective hotels and had a delicious dinner.

We had a very successful EBC trek in October 2024 because of Team Himalaya! Our guide, Raj, was very knowledgeable in all things Everest. He set us up in the best lodges where we had great service all along. He provided us with a superb porter, who also went above and beyond in taking care of us. Raj was very patient with us and was always looking out for our best interests. We would highly recommend Team Himalaya for any trek!

Everest Base Camp Team Himalaya March 2024
We have just returned from a 14 day, 11 day hike with Raj and Durga from Team Himalaya to Everest Base Camp. From the minute we landed to our departure we were properly looked after and cared for by Team Himalaya. The trek to and from Everest Base Camp was wonderful, our guides and porters really looked after us and were incredibly knowledgeable. In Nepal things can go wrong especially with flights to and from Lukla but Team responded magnificently and found alternative solutions. If this is on your bucket list as ours and you are looking for a company to organise this with I would 100% recommend Raj.

Reaching Everest Base Camp with TEAM HIMALAYA
If you are looking for an adventure of a lifetime, don’t hesitate! Choose TEAM HIMALAYA for your Everest Base Camp trek! We completed the EBC trek early November 2023 . My husband and I chose to do a private trek with Team Himalaya. Everything went smoothly with our guide Raj. His team and organization is outstanding! We could not have done it without him. Raj took care of everything throughout the trek and made sure we were well at all times, even providing us fresh fruits every night after dinner! We felt safe at all times , his experience and knowledge of the Himalayas helped us achieve our goal in reaching the EBC! His professionalism went beyond our expectations from our first contact with him for information until the very end. We will forever remember this expedition and gained a friend in our guide Raj!

Incredible Experience by evan
It was an incredible experience being surrounded by the towering Annapurna Himalayas. This memorable trek through Nepal offered the best scenic views and stunning landscapes. Despite being surprised at how quickly the trek ended, the daily walks were filled with dramatic views that left a lasting impression.
I highly recommend this adventure, as it is one of the best base camp treks in the Himalayas with minimal risk of altitude sickness. Although there were steep ups and downs that were tiring on some days, the breathtaking views made it all worth it. This was easily the most exciting trek I have ever experienced.
I want to thank Team Himalayas and Raj for providing exceptional service with their expert guide and staff.
