Bardia Jungle Safari Tour is an easy wildlife tour that does not involve any prior trekking experience or physical fitness. Majority of the activities are done by road or guided nature walk on fairly level grounds within and around the Bardia National Park.
The wildlife tracking activities may include some hours of walking through forests, grasslands and the natural trails. The speed is however relatively slow and can accommodate most travelers of reasonable mobility. The jeep safaris are a comfortable means to cover more parts of the park without the need to work so hard.
This itinerary is suitable for families, couples, solo travelers, and senior travelers who wish to experience Nepal’s wildlife without undertaking a trekking adventure. They are also interested in photography and the natural environment.
The highest elevation during Bardia Jungle Safari Tour is Kathmandu, which sits at approximately 1,400 meters above sea level. Most safari activities take place in Bardia National Park, located in Nepal’s lowland Terai region at elevations ranging from about 150 to 300 meters in the main visitor areas.
Since the tour will be done in the Terai region, there is no concern with altitude sickness. Tourists do not have to undergo the process of acclimatizing themselves and make particular arrangements in connection with specific altitudes.
