Chitwan Jeep Safari

We spent a whole day in Chitwan Park, in Nepal, with the Hotel, activities and local guides hired by Outshine Adventure. The Hotel was very good, with a good buffet, which was able to serve special gluten-free meals tailored to our needs. The surroundings of the hotel are very good, swimming pool, gardens with beautiful trees and birds. The room was large, although the cleanliness was only adequate, and the facilities were old: The air control did not work, the bathtub had some cracks... nothing serious. First thing in the morning we took a canoe trip along the river which was wonderful. Going out through the fog in wooden canoes (not very comfortable, but to be expected), with elephants (domesticated) crossing the river at fifty meters was a good start. The descent down the river, very gentle, led by a man very skilled with the pole, was beautiful. We saw birds (several white throated King Fisher, a Common Kingfisher, similar to the one we have in Europe, ducks, herons, peacocks in freedom, climbing 30 meter high trees...) We made the return walking through a sparse jungle, passing through several beautiful places. After resting at the hotel and eating, we took the excursion, in an open Jeep, through the jungle. Several hours (it doesn't take long) of walking comfortable paths between imposing trees, seeing elephants (with your guide), several groups of deer, various lizards, monkeys (including macaques, langurs...), spectacular termite nests, delicate flowers , butterflies.....we didn't see the Rhino, but we were delighted with the excursion. Overall, a magnificent experience.
