We don’t really have any fixed itineraries – almost all our guests travel on an itinerary that they have helped us design to their own specifications.
We’ll assist you with suggestions about where to go and where to stay but ultimately it is your safari and the final decision is yours.
To help you get started we can offer you the normal packages with more concentration on photography. As we have guides who are interested in photography too, we can help you to show bests of Bardia. You can choose whether to select one of these itineraries as it is, customize it to your requirements or suggest an entirely different itinerary. Whatever your choice we’ll be happy to prepare a quotation for you.
An early morning 30 km drive by jeep will drop you by the Karnali River. This is followed by a serene day rafting down the gentle Karnali. Drifting down the river allows you to spot wildlife, especially the endangered freshwater Gangetic dolphin, the gharial crocodile, exotic birds and big game on the nearby river banks. Swimming is also possible and sometimes the dolphins may join you!
Explore the community forest, river habitats and open water areas to see the wide range of varieties of birds. Bird watching is best done on foot for the least disturbance, but you can take a jeep safari or drift down the Karnali River for sightings of the many river birds. Our well-trained guides can help identify the different varieties of resident and migratory birds encountered.
The Karnali River is one of the longest Himalayan river of mid-west Nepal famous for fishing game. A good habitat of great fish like the mahseer, you can go fishing with good fishing equipment. The best time for fishing is generally October to April.
Walking in allows you to explore the rich diversity of the jungle, grasslands and rivers. This is the best way to see wildlife and nature close up. Your guide can give you in-depth information on the habitats you pass through, details of the plant and animal life you encounter and will brief you on general tracking tips.
FROM THE BLOGThis year I had my most amazing jungle safari in Nepal going around Bardia National Park as a part of market research, feasibility study and safari holidays.
