After lunch your local guide will show you (in an non-intrusive manner) the lifestyle of the local indigenous peoples - the Tharus. See first hand the beautifully made houses that accommodate up to 150 family members. Witness the farming methods which are centuries old and experience a culture unique to this part of Nepal. After dinner meet your jungle guide who will explain in detail your programme for the next day.

Leave after an early breakfast! Morning and evening are the best times for animal spotting so set off at dawn on your first exploration of the Park. Today we take a packed lunch into the bush in order that we can cover a greater distance, see a wider variety of flora and fauna and have a greater chance of sighting "big game".

There is a possibility of seeing wild elephants, Bengal tigers, rhinos, blue bull, deer, monkeys and host of smaller mammals. In the dry season, explore the riverbank, swim in the river and hopefully spot the elusive, although not shy, gangetic dolphins. At other times lunch can be taken on a watch tower overlooking grasslands, popular with birds such as the rare Sarus Crane. After dinner relax and swap jungle experiences with other guests.
