Chitwan National Park, Nepal

Located on the banks of the Rapti River, the lodge is set in the small village of Tharus and offers splendid views of the National Park from its stand-alone riverfacing cottages. The architecture and interiors blend seamlessly with its surroundings, with generous use of bamboo and sustainable wood in the decor. Game drives on elephant back in search of one-horned rhinos and tiger are Chitwan’s must-do, but guests here may also go on crocspotting trips in dugout canoes, and breezy ox-cart rides to local villages. The culinary experience at the lodge, in particular its Nepalese cuisine, garners effusive praise from our clients.
