Bird & Wildlife Tours
A nine night, ten day dive into the wildlife, wild beauty and cultures of Nepal
The Experience
Discover Nepal through a unique combination of wildlife, birdwatching, culture and conservation. Explore the UNESCO World Heritage sites of Kathmandu and Bhaktapur before travelling into the Annapurna foothills, where you’ll hike through the Pipar Pheasant Conservation Landscape, visit local villages and experience some of Nepal’s most spectacular mountain scenery. Along the way, look for rare Himalayan birds, visit a dedicated vulture conservation feeding site and search for Nepal’s only endemic bird, the Spiny Babbler.
​
Your journey culminates in Chitwan National Park, with an unforgettable day combining a traditional dugout canoe journey on the Rapti River with an extended jeep safari deep into the park. With a maximum of just ten guests, a British guide and specialist ecologists and biologists accompanying the tour, this is an intimate opportunity to experience Nepal’s wildlife while gaining a genuine insight into the conservation work protecting it.
