Overview
The Chitwan Jungle Safari stands out as the premier wildlife tour in Nepal. Situated in southern Nepal, Chitwan National Park spans 932 square kilometers (360 square miles) and was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1979.
Evidently, “Chitwan” translates to “heart of the jungle,” reflecting its rich biodiversity. It is a sanctuary for a variety of wildlife, including tigers, leopards, rhinoceroses, elephants, and numerous bird species. Sauraha, a small settlement, serves as the gateway to Chitwan National Park and is renowned for its diverse bird and reptile populations.
Typically, a jungle safari tour encompasses a variety of activities, such as elephant rides, jungle walks, canoe rides, and jeep safaris. It has a diverse range of experiences allows tourists to observe the park’s remarkable wildlife up close while gaining insights into their behaviors and habitats from knowledgeable guides.
Notably, one of the tour’s highlights is the opportunity to view the endangered one-horned rhinoceros. These magnificent animals are found exclusively in Nepal and are a rare sight in the wild. In addition to wildlife encounters, visitors can engage with several indigenous communities within the park, gaining a deeper understanding of their culture and traditions.
Furthermore, as advocates for animal welfare, we refrain from offering Elephant Back Safaris due to concerns about animal rights. Instead, we recommend opting for a jeep safari, which provides an excellent vantage point for observing the endangered one-horned rhinoceros. Additionally, please be aware that the park entrance fee varies based on nationality.
In summary, a Chitwan jungle safari tour is an exceptional experience, offering profound insights into Nepal’s natural beauty, wildlife, and cultural heritage. It is an essential adventure for any visitor to the region.

Best time to visit Chitwan for jungle safari tour
The optimal time to embark on a jungle safari tour in Chitwan is during the winter season, spanning from October to March. During this period, the weather is notably dry and the temperatures are pleasantly mild, thus creating ideal conditions for wildlife observation and exploration of the national park.
In contrast, the monsoon season, occurring from June to September, can present challenges due to heavy rainfall and extensive flooding, which may hinder the safari experience. Similarly, the summer months, from April to June, often bring intense heat and humidity, which can complicate wildlife sightings.
Consequently, to fully enjoy Chitwan’s wildlife and natural splendor, planning your visit between October and March is highly recommended. Nonetheless, be aware that the park may experience high visitor numbers during peak tourist season; therefore, it is prudent to secure your accommodations and tours well in advance.

2 Nights 3 Days Chitwan Jungle Safari Tour Review
One Horned Rhino with a jeep Safari
We had a great time in Chitwan National Park for our wildlife tour with a reliable agency in Nepal. Ammar, owner of Gokyo Treks agency is an honest man who booked everything for us to make our holiday safe.
As we tired after 12 days of Everest base camp trek, we decided to fly to reach National Park. Ammar quickly arranged our flight to Bharatpur with Yeti Airlines right after landing at TIA domestic. Ammar’s friend picked us up from Bharatpur airport to Sauraha at his resort.
They served super delicious meals within a friendly atmosphere.
All activities like Tharu stick dance, hiking at the park, and canoe ride at Rapti river were simply amazing. We saw one-horned Rhinos, multi colorful birds with crocodiles in the river. Sadly we haven’t seen Royal Bengal Tiger.
If you are traveling in the Spring months, try out to make a plan to visit Sauraha for Chitwan National Park wildlife tour. Its very interesting and cheap, ask Ammar for the best deal.
Response from Gokyo Treks Nepal
Thank you
Special Tour in Chitwan Jungle safari
Best place to get refreshed especially after multi-day hikes. Ammar suggested to us where to go and what to explore in our last 2 days staying in Nepal, so we booked our safari adventure with the Gokyo agency and reach Chitwan.
The manager and our nature guide Sadish from the hotel were friendly too. All food was great!
We did a Jungle safari walks, cycling, hiking, a full day jeep safari, Tharu culture, and cuisine, etc making Chitwan, the best destination. Must try.
