This changing scenery provides a continuous feast for the eyes, with opportunities to observe rural Nepali life as you pass small villages and farms.

Upon your arrival in Chitwan, which is renowned for its rich biodiversity and the famous Chitwan National Park, you'll be introduced to the local Tharu culture.
