About jungle safari
Chitwan and Bardia national parks protect the subtropical grasslands and sal forest of the lowlands. Jeep safaris, guided walks and canoe trips offer different angles on the same wildlife; most visitors combine all three over two days.
Choose operators that keep distance from animals and do not offer elephant rides; responsible lodges are easy to find.
