EXCITING JUNGLE SAFARIS WITH RICH CULTURAL ENCOUNTERS
Situated on the boundary of Chitwan National Park, Tiger Tops Tharu Lodge offers its guests an experience that combines exciting jungle safaris with rich cultural encounters. The lodge itself is constructed in the traditional style of the Tharu with two longhouses built from local materials. The double rooms are simply but comfortably furnished with ensuite bathrooms and solar-heated showers. Both Nepali and Western cuisine is served and the fully-stocked bar stays open until the last person goes to bed.
Stay here during your luxury, tailor-made holiday to Nepal and you’ll be able to spend each day enjoying a variety of nature activities. Naturalist guides lead bird watching tours, jungle walks through the national park and picturesque boat rides down the Narayani River – look out for the endangered gharial amongst others.

The service we received from The Ultimate Travel Company was second to none. Tania took the time to understand exactly what we wanted and helped us explore every option clearly and thoroughly. Her first-hand knowledge of Kenya and safaris made a real difference – she explained everything brilliantly. The thoughtful extras, like the travel wallet and documents, were such a lovely touch – especially for someone who loves to travel well-organised! Thank you so much. We’ll definitely be back for future adventures.
