Chital Lodge

If you want to have a true experience of the Chitwan National Park with the best local guide who is passionate about the jungle and has a ton of knowledge about the wildlife, then this is the best place for you! Bishnu (the owner of the lodge and guide) is truly amazing! He started answering any questions I had even before I arrived at the area. His wife and his kids are truly adorable and they made me feel like being at home. I went with Bishnu in a half day jeep safari and a full day walking (and boat) safari, as well as some other activities like bird watching. Even if we were not lucky enough to see a tiger, we saw many rhinos, deers and monkeys! Bishnu knows every corner of the forest and he was explaining to us every detail and answering any questions we had. While other guides may show you only the basics without putting much effort, Bishnu is trying his best to find the best spots in the jungle so that the guests could have the greatest experience! One day of my 3 days stay, I was the only guest and Bishnu arranged extra activities especially for me so as not to get bored! Last but not least, the food was fresh and homemade, and it was the best food I had in Nepal! These 3 days full of adventure and great hospitality, was the best part of my trip in Nepal and makes me want to visit Nepal and Bishnu again in the future for sure! Bishnu and your family, thank you for everything!

Chital lodge is a very nice place, far away from the crowds. It is operated by Bishnu Bhusal who runs the place together with his lovely wife. Bishnu is also the guide who takes you in to the park by foot, jeep or by boat. He has lived here all his life and can tell you a lot about the animals and nature inside the park. Moreover the prices for safaris and excursions are quite cheap. If you want to have a real chance in meeting the true animals of Chitwan, my advice is to book Chital Lodge in Meghauli.

Bishnu and his family were the most wonderful hosts and guides. Bishnu is hugely passionate about animals, and it was evident throughout both our jeep and walking tours. He is an expert - he knew so many details about each and every animal. The care and diligence with which he led his tours was also so abundant -- he took us to innumerous different spots throughout the national park and listened carefully to the animals to track their movements so that we could have some unforgettable animal spottings and experiences. He spent extra time tracking animals, late into the day, to ensure the most memorable experience for us. Additionally, these are the best people -- Bishnu and his family were so welcoming and friendly, we enjoyed our conversations with them immensely. Bishnu inherited the lodge from his father and the pride and passion he has for nature is so very evident, and it was this passion for nature he shared with us. We feel honored and grateful that this was apart of our travels. Thank you for such a memorable and spectacular stay. We can't thank you all enough.

We had a such great time at Chital Lodge. Bisnu and his family take such good care of us and we felt at home as soon as we arrived. The food was amazing and the safaris Bisnu take us in were unforgetable ! We fully recommend this lodge for anyone who is looking for a place to stay in Chitwan. The experience is totally worth it. We will miss the entire family, the beautiful environement, and the very friendly atmosphere

We hebben 5 nachten in deze lodge gelogeerd en iedere dag was weer top! Alles wat we met Bishnu ondernomen hebben was de moeite waard. Groot kenner van de natuur. Weet waar de grootste kans is op wild en gaat tot het uiterste om zijn klanten te geven waar ze voor komen. Daarnaast is het een fijne plek om te logeren. Vlak naast de lodge stroomt een riviertje. Heerlijk om af te koelen. Bishnu's vrouw kookt heerlijk! Momo's lijken haar specialiteit 🙂 Prijs/kwaliteit verhouding is top. Kan deze lodge met familie allen maar aanbevelen.

Потрясающее местно с потрясающим хозяином! Приехали сюда ради сафари, так как прочитали много отзывов, что хозяин отеля отличный гид, так и есть! Вместо одной недели прожили две с половиной, и сходили 4 раза в сафари и планируем приехать ещё через три недели, так как нам очень понравилось! Во время сафари увидели очень много животных! А также на территорию отеля заходят мангусты и шакалы, за которыми интересно наблюдать во время вкусного завтрака или ужина! Советую это прекрасное место))
