Chitwan 2 Nights All Inclusive Jungle Safari Tour
Book on Viator →Operated by Getaway Nepal Adventure · Bookable on Viator
Rhinos, crocs, and canoe time in one trip. This Chitwan National Park package is a well-built way to see Nepal’s wildlife country with a guide, park tickets, and real activities rather than just a bus stop and a photo.
I love how all-inclusive the core experience feels: daily breakfast, lunch, and dinner, plus guided safari time like a canoe trip on the Narayani River. One drawback to plan for: drinks and personal expenses are not included, so you’ll want a little extra cash in your daypack.

Chitwan All-Inclusive Jungle Safari: Quick Take

If you want a Nepal nature trip that doesn’t require logistics battles, this 2-night package is a strong fit. You base yourself in the Chitwan area, then you’re out for the classic Chitwan rhythm: river time, a guided park visit, and safari-style exploration with a jeep.
The “all-inclusive” part matters because Chitwan tours can get pricey once you add meals, entry fees, and guided activities. Here, the package pulls those moving pieces together and also includes the park admission tickets in the schedule.
The tour is also listed as private for your group. That’s helpful in places where you don’t want to be stuck waiting on other schedules. Still, it’s not a slow, solo wander day—you’re moving on a set itinerary, and some activities run because of daylight and conditions.
Key Highlights Worth Your Attention

Two nights with breakfast, lunch, and dinner included so your budget stays calmer.
Narayani River time with park-side scenery and a guided canoe trip that’s central to Chitwan.
Jeep safari plus jungle walk and bird watching so you’re not only counting on one kind of wildlife viewing.
Expert English-speaking nature guide and park entry fees folded into the main plan.
Kathmandu to Chitwan and back by air-conditioned transport and tourist bus that keeps the hassle low.
Responsive support from Raj and the team at Getaway Nepal Adventure helps when plans need adjusting.

Price and Value: What $128 Really Buys
At $128 per person for about three days (2 nights), this tour is best judged as a “bundle” value. The cost covers more than transport—it includes the guide, safari activities, park entry fees, and daily meals.
That matters because in Chitwan, the expensive bits add up fast:
- park admission and guiding time
- the safari activities themselves (canoe, jeep safari, jungle walk)
- staying in the Chitwan area for two nights
- covering most meals so you’re not hunting down food between activities
What’s not included is equally clear: drinks and personal expenses. So, if you’re the type who grabs sodas, bottled water refills, or extra snacks every time you stop, you’ll spend beyond the headline price. I’d plan on that from day one, not as an afterthought.
Kathmandu to Chitwan: The Ride and the First Stops

This package starts from Getaway Nepal Adventure Pvt. Ltd in Thamel, Kathmandu. From there, you travel toward Chitwan using an air-conditioned vehicle and tourist bus connections, with the itinerary also noting a stop at Kathmandu’s gateway area and then in central Nepal on the way down.
Two named waypoints show up on the plan:
- Thankot: described as a scenic gateway at the foothills of the Chandragiri Hills, known for greenery and a cool climate.
- Narayanghat (Bharatpur area): a commercial hub that acts like a gateway toward Chitwan, with markets and riverside charm.
Practically, these stops are there to break the long-distance travel. You’ll want to use them to reset—stretch, grab water if you need it, and get your bearings. Also, Chitwan days are wildlife-focused, so it’s smart not to treat the travel day like a full sightseeing marathon.
Day 1 in Chitwan: Settling In and Getting Ready for Wildlife Time

Day 1 sets you up for the rest of the trip. You’ll reach the Chitwan area, check in to your included accommodation, and then get briefed into the safari rhythm for the next day.
One detail I like here is the “expert nature guide” setup. You’re not just handed a map. The guide’s role is to run the activities and help you interpret what you’re seeing—especially important in a park where wildlife can be present but not always obvious.
Your day’s pace (and what you’ll feel like doing) depends on arrival timing, but you should expect a mix of lodge downtime plus a guided start so you can be ready for the heavier safari block soon.
Narayani River and Chitwan National Park: The Heart of the Safari (Day 2)

Day 2 is where Chitwan earns its reputation. The itinerary has two major pieces: the Narayani River and Chitwan National Park.
The Narayani River stop: canoe time and big-water energy
The Narayani River is listed as one of Nepal’s largest rivers, flowing alongside the park. The schedule gives it about 1 hour 30 minutes, with the activity linked to an admission ticket.
In real terms, this is where you get close to the ecosystem instead of just looking at it from land. River edges can be active for wildlife and birds, and a canoe trip gives you a slower, more observant view than a jeep window.
Chitwan National Park: guided viewing and safari-style exploration
Next comes Chitwan National Park, with about 2 hours on the plan and the park admission ticket included.
Chitwan is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is known for species like the one-horned rhinoceros (the tour info specifically calls that out). The big takeaway for you: in a place with high ecological value, your best results come from patience and guidance, not frantic scanning.
This is also where the package’s activity mix shows up. Your all-inclusive set includes:
- jeep safari
- jungle walk
- bird watching
- a cultural program
Depending on how the day flows, you may experience several of these back-to-back. That can feel intense, but it’s also efficient. Instead of spending days just getting to one sight, you’re hitting multiple styles of nature viewing—river, trails, and vehicle routes—so you don’t rely on one format to deliver results.
Day 3 at Sauraha: The Last Look and Your Return

On the final day, the schedule moves to Sauraha, described as a major arrival/departure hub near the park. The stop is listed as about 30 minutes, with the admission marked as free.
Sauraha matters because it’s where the park experience meets real services—hotels, guidance offices, and transport connections. After two active wildlife-focused days, this short stop is mostly about transitions: wrapping the tour, moving back toward Kathmandu, and getting you back to the meeting point.
Then you head back using the included transport options (noted as tourist bus connections, with return possible toward Kathmandu or Pokhara in the overall transport description). The tour itself ends back at the Thamel meeting point.
Lodging and Comfort: What Included “Stay” Usually Means Here

Accommodation is included, and the tour info ties the safari base to the Chitwan/Sauraha area near the park. From the feedback you shared, the tone is that the lodge setup is in the village area at the edge of the park, and that the included stay is a comfortable base for getting up and out early.
What I’d keep in mind: “jungle lodge comfort” can mean different things depending on the property style. Since the exact hotel name isn’t provided in the details here, I can’t promise specific room features. But I can say you’ll be set up for a wildlife schedule—so choose practical expectations: good sleep, easy access to activities, and a place to cool down after outdoor time.
If you’re the kind of traveler who needs luxury amenities, you may want to confirm specifics with the operator before booking. If you’re happy with nature-first comfort, this style of stay is usually the right match.
Food, Drinks, and Energy Management

Meals are one of the easiest wins in this package:
- Breakfast (2)
- Lunch (2)
- Dinner (2)
Because meals are included daily, you don’t have to guess where you’ll eat between safari sessions. That also helps you plan your energy. Outdoor days in Chitwan can add up, and having consistent fueling makes a real difference.
What’s not included: drinks. That includes anything you buy separately (bottled water, soda, beer, etc.). I’d plan on bringing water when you can and budget for small purchases during the day.
The Guide Factor: Why an English-Speaking Nature Guide Helps
The tour includes an English-speaking professional nature guide, and that’s not just a language perk. In a wildlife-focused park, it changes how you experience the day.
You’ll get help with:
- spotting animals and interpreting movement (even when visibility isn’t perfect)
- understanding what you’re seeing on a jungle walk
- connecting birds to habitats you pass through
- making jeep safari time more than just driving in search of luck
From the names provided, the company’s communication is led through people like Raj at Getaway Nepal Adventure, and support on the ground includes team members Arzun and Kapil (mentioned in the feedback you shared). That’s a good sign for smooth coordination when your schedule or questions change.
Logistics That Matter: Group Size, Pace, and Timing
This is listed as a private tour/activity, meaning your group participates together. That’s generally better for comfort and pacing than a mixed group where you’re constantly waiting.
Still, it’s a set itinerary. So:
- you’ll likely have limited “wander time”
- you’ll follow the day’s order: transfer, activities, then return
You should also know the tour is weather dependent. Since wildlife viewing and park operations depend on conditions, poor weather could cause the tour to be moved or refunded as per the tour’s policy.
Also, Chitwan travel is a real journey from Kathmandu. Plan to pack for a long travel day. Comfort in transit makes everything else feel easier.
What to Pack for Chitwan Safari Days
Even with an all-inclusive package, you’ll be happiest if you show up prepared for sun, insects, and time outdoors. I’d bring:
- a light rain layer (weather can change)
- insect repellent
- sunglasses and sunscreen
- comfortable walking shoes (for jungle walk time)
- a small daypack for water and personal items
If you like birding, binoculars can help, though nothing about them is included in the tour details.
And since drinks aren’t included, keep an eye on your personal hydration needs.
Should You Book This Chitwan 2-Night All-Inclusive Safari?
Book it if:
- you want meals, park entry, and key activities bundled into one price
- you like guided wildlife time with a professional English-speaking nature guide
- you prefer a structured itinerary over planning your own transport, tickets, and safari booking
Skip or double-check if:
- you expect drinks and extras to be included (they’re not)
- you need specific lodging standards and want a guarantee (the exact property details aren’t spelled out here)
- you’re booking during a period when you can’t be flexible with weather-related schedule changes
If your goal is simple: see Chitwan with less hassle and more guided time, this package is a sensible option.
