Start your day with a calm canoe ride on the Rapti River. You might see many birds and two special crocodiles—the Marsh Mugger and the fish-eating Gharial—resting by the water. After the ride, enjoy a guided walk through the jungle. You’ll learn about useful plants, see butterflies, and maybe spot some shy animals hiding in the trees. On the way back, you can watch—or even help—wash elephants in the river.
After lunch and some rest, embark on an exciting jeep safari in Chitwan National Park. Look out for the one-horned rhinoceros, various deer, wild boars, monkeys, leopards, sloth bears, and, if you’re lucky, the Royal Bengal Tiger.
In the evening, enjoy a Tharu dance show, a fun way to learn about the local people and their culture.
