Bardiya Jungle Safari Tour is a 5-day wildlife adventure package for 2025 in Nepal. It includes visit to Bardiya National Park, an ideal destination for wildlife lovers and nature enthusiasts seeking an unforgettable jungle safari tour in Nepal. This pristine wilderness offers a glimpse of raw natural beauty, where majestic Bengal tigers roam freely and rare species find refuge in the dense forests and winding rivers. Covering an area of 968 sq. km, Bardiya National Park is the largest and most undisturbed protected area in Nepal’s Terai region, located on the eastern bank of the Karnali River. The park is home to the endangered Royal Bengal tiger, Nepal’s famous one-horned rhinoceros, and a diverse range of flora and fauna.

Your journey begins in Nepalgunj after being transferred from Kathmandu, where you’ll explore the local village, visit temples, and so on. This short excursion offers you an opportunity to learn about Tharu culture and traditions through a visit to the Tharu Model House, immersing you in the indigenous lifestyle of the region.

Wake up on this trip to the melodious chirping of birds and breathe in the fresh air – an experience like no other. We will take a short drive to Chisapani, crossing the iconic Karnali Bridge, enjoy a local lunch featuring fresh fish at a traditional restaurant before proceeding on a floating safari along the Karnali River. This scenic river excursion does not include rapids, making it a relaxing and enjoyable experience with excellent opportunities to observe wildlife and birdlife. In the evening, we set up tents on a sandy riverbank and then visit a remote Tharu village for a cultural dance performance. Following a traditional Tharu dinner, we return to the campsite for a bonfire with local music under the starlit sky.

Continue your journey with an elephant-back safari, an exceptional way to explore the dense jungle while getting close to rhinos and other wildlife. Go for an adventure with a thrilling jeep safari inside Bardiya National Park. This excursion provides insights into the park’s diverse geography, ecosystems, and wildlife habitats. Short nature walks during the jeep safari allow you to experience the beauty of jungle up close.

This jungle safari tour is an adventure trip offering a true jungle trekking experience. You’ll cross the river on foot with packed lunch to explore Bardiya National Park a bit more, accompanied by a professional naturalist and a porter. A full-day jungle hike increases your chance of spotting an endangered one-horned rhinoceros. The walk also provides excellent opportunities for wildlife photography.
