Day 01 Arrival by flight:

hours drive to Royal Bardia National Park.
Dinner and briefing in hotel.
Arrival by bus
Arrive in hotel in time for breakfast. Following your
briefing, relax until lunch.
After lunch your local guide will show you (in an
non-intrusive manner) the lifestyle of the local indigenous peoples -
the Tharus. See first hand the beautifully made houses that accommodate
up to 150 family members, witness the farming methods which are
centuries old and experience a culture unique to this part of Nepal.
After dinner meet your jungle guide who will explain in details your
programme for the next day.
Day 02
Breakfast is taken very early! Morning and evening
are the best times for animal spotting so set off at dawn on your first
exploration of the Park. Today we take a packed lunch into the bush in
order that we can cover a greater distance, see a wider variety of flora
and fauna and have a greater chance of sighting "big game".
There is a possibility of seeing wild elephants,
Bengal tigers, rhinos, blue bull, deer, monkeys and host of smaller
mammals. In the dry season we can explore the riverbank, swim in the
river and hopefully spot the elusive, although not shy, gangetic
dolphins. At other times lunch can be taken in a watching tower
overlooking grasslands, popular with birds such as the rare Sarus Crane.
After dinner relax and swap jungle experiences with other guests.
Day 03
Again after an early breakfast, set off at dawn to
explore tiger territory. While there is every possibility of seeing
other animals, this morning we are specifically tracking that great
majestic beast - the Royal Bengal Tiger! Back to the hotel for lunch. In
the late afternoon enjoy a short safari by elephant - a fun and exciting
way to explore the jungle! See how the elephant is trained to ensure
your safety from low hanging branches! Return to the hotel for a well
earned dinner.
Day 04
Set off even earlier today in order to be "up
with the birds". This morning spend a few hours bird watching in
the Park before having a hearty breakfast. For
those flying back to Kathmandu we say goodbye after breakfast. For those
taking the bus there is time to relax or explore the surrounding
villages on your own before lunch and departure in the early afternoon.
