About this trip
Chitwan Jungle Safari offers a wide variety of tour packages in Chitwan. We designed this day trip for travellers who don't have several days to spare but would still like to fit the most exciting parts of Chitwan into one visit. If our ready-made trip doesn't quite suit your interests, we're happy to tailor it.
Our day tours include a 4 hour jeep safari, a jungle and nature walk, a canoe ride, a visit to the crocodile Breeding Centre, and much more.
Even in a single day, you have a chance to see one-horned rhinoceros, Royal Bengal tigers, majestic elephants, crocodiles, rhesus monkeys, grey langurs, deer, leopards, pythons, brilliantly coloured birds and many more mammals, birds, reptiles and water animals.
