About this tour
This tour removes the planning from the Kathmandu–Chitwan trip. A private car collects you from your hotel in the morning and drives the Prithvi Highway to Sauraha, stopping when you want to.
In Chitwan you get the same program as our two-night package: a jeep safari, a canoe ride, a jungle walk and an evening in a Tharu village. On the third day the car drives you back to Kathmandu, or on to Pokhara if you prefer.
The price is per person for two travelers sharing the car.
