Multi-Day Circuits

The Grand Terai Circuit

Our flagship journey — fourteen days weaving Chitwan, Bardia, Shuklaphanta and Koshi Tappu into one coherent story of Nepal’s lowland wild, guided end to end.

An honest word: Across four parks over two weeks, your chances of tiger, rhino and a huge bird list are as good as Nepal offers — but this is wild travel, and we’ll always tell you the honest odds before the sighting.

Most operators sell Nepal’s parks one at a time. We weave them. Fourteen days, four landscapes — forest, riverbank, grassland and wetland — connected into a single narrative of the Terai’s wild, with the continuity that only end-to-end guiding gives.

Itinerary

Days 1–3 — Chitwan

Begin on our home ground: rhino at close range, jungle walks, and the Rapti by canoe, from our own base.

Days 4–7 — Bardia

West to the wild frontier for riverbank tiger tracking, hide sits and the Karnali’s dolphins.

Days 8–10 — Shuklaphanta

The great open phantas and the world’s largest swamp deer herds, with grassland birding and true solitude.

Days 11–13 — Koshi Tappu

East across the country to close on Nepal’s richest wetland at peak migration — dawn boats and a soaring bird list.

Day 14 — Departure

Final morning and onward travel, with an option to add Kathmandu valley birding or an Ilam extension.
