Short Chitwan Jungle Tour: 2 nights/ 3 Days 

The Short Chitwan Jungle Safari Tour presents an intriguing jungle adventure in Nepal, located within the tropical forests of Chitwan National Park. This 2-night, 3-day safari is a dependable, comfortable, and all-encompassing package designed for those who wish to explore the rare flora and fauna of Nepal. Chitwan jungle activities rank among the best experiences that should be included in your Nepal tour, trekking, and adventure itinerary. The Chitwan safari tour can be accessed from both Pokhara and Kathmandu, with Sherpa Nomad Trek Pvt. Ltd. offering the chance to join the safari from either city. Furthermore, a comfortable tourist bus service is provided for both directions at the same price, ensuring a more pleasant planning process for your Chitwan safari tour.

The Chitwan jungle safari tour includes activities such as a Jeep safari, jungle walk, bird watching, canoeing, village tours, cultural programs, and other activities depending on the available time. Chitwan serves as a sanctuary for the Bengal tiger, although spotting one can be challenging due to the vast areas, abundant water sources, and ample food supply for these majestic creatures. In addition to the Bengal tiger, the park is home to 68 to 75 mammal species, including elephants, one-horned rhinos, sloth bears, leopards, wild boars, domestic cats, jackals, foxes, and various deer species (such as spotted deer, sambar, hog deer, and barking deer), as well as monkeys and many others.

The park boasts over 600 bird species, including endangered and rare species such as the Bengal florican, slender-billed babbler, swamp francolin, and lesser adjutant. It also features large, colorful birds such as the great hornbill, oriental pied hornbill, and red-headed trogon. Migratory winter visitors include bar-headed geese and northern pintails that travel from Siberia, while common residents consist of kingfishers, bulbuls, and egrets. Chitwan National Park is also home to 69 reptile species, which encompass 42 snakes, 14 lizards, 11 turtles, and two species of crocodiles. During the Jeep safari, you can experience the main highlights of Chitwan, and while canoeing, you may observe aquatic animals such as fish, crocodiles, gharials, and many other species.

The Chitwan jungle safari tour stands out as the premier safari destination in South Asia. It offers a unique opportunity to explore the culture of the Tharu communities alongside the wilderness in a single trip. The ideal times to embark on a Chitwan safari are during Autumn (September to November), Spring (March to May), and Winter (December to February). The rainy season can cause flooding, and heavy rains may reduce visibility when spotting wildlife. During the peak seasons, you can observe rare flora and fauna, as well as a variety of unique wildlife. The package includes entrance fees, jeep safari, meals, and deluxe accommodation featuring a swimming pool. Consider booking the concise and comprehensive Chitwan jungle tour, which spans 2 nights and 3 days. Sherpa Nomad Trek Pvt. Ltd. is the top local planner for the Chitwan tour, providing quality service at an affordable price without compromising on service.
