If you want an authentic experience, I highly recommend Bardia Kingfisher Resort. Jack, Pratap, and family are fantastic!! I ended up staying 2 extra days and sure am glad I did - saw a tiger on my original departure day!! So worth it. My inquiries were responded to very quickly. From the time I arrived at Nepalgunj airport to my departure, I was completely cared for and couldn’t ask for anything more. The jungle experiences (walking and jeep safari) and feeling like part of the family can’t be beat. My meals, prepared by Anju (Pratap’s wife) were incredible - I want cooking lessons next time. Accommodations are comfortable (not luxury) and very reasonably priced! And there’s no one I’d rather be with in the jungle than Jack. Thank you for an such an amazing experience - looking forward to my next visit!

Our dream of seeing a tiger finally came true

Reviewed By yagya123

We are thankful to Racy Shade Resort for fulfilling our dream of seeing a tiger during our jungle safari. After just two hours, within 50 meters, we saw a tiger. We were mesmerized when it emerged from the bushes. It was massive. With its saffron colored and strong black stripes and moved with majestic grace. Our guide Mukti Ram Rijal led us safely behind it in silence and with respect for around twenty minutes. The team and hospitality of the resort was so good that we need to keep coming back. Once was not enough! Thank you to Kamal Bom, our trusted driver, who took us to this resort and took such good care of our family of multiple generations.

5 days, 4 nights

Reviewed By Geoff01958

We stayed in the two story building. The room was excellent and different from what we are used to. One night we could hear drumming and singing coming from the village. It was peaceful and made us feel we were part of the local scene. The first two days we were there by ourselves and the staff were overly helpful. Our guides were very friendly, knowledgeable, and determined to make our experience memorable. The food was what we expected, wholesome and filling. Our three days in the national park were long, and we experienced long waits along the river watching out for wildlife; which will reward you. We saw a rhino, crocodiles, otters, jackals, owls, several species of deer, languir and macaque monkeys, many birds and insects; and on the last afternoon a royal bengal tiger! On our last morning we rode some bikes around the local villages and joined the children riding to school.

Bardia Wildlife Resort

Bardia Wildlife Resort is located on the bank of a tributary of the Karnali river, directly opposite Bardia National Park. We pride ourselves in giving our guests the complete Bardia wildlife experience. At our resort you’ll find an assortment of traditional Tharu-style cottages set amongst beautiful landscaped gardens designed to mirror the Bardia National Park and which provide much of the organic produce we use to cook delicious Nepali dishes all year round. The resort rests on the edge of a tributary of the Karnali river, only ten minutes walk from the park headquarters. The many birds that fly over our garden and the surprise visit from wild animals have almost changed our resort into a park itself. Our resort, established in 1994, prides itself on employing strictly local guides therefore keeping your experience genuine. The ten huts, set among a beautiful garden are furnished with comfortable single and twin beds, are decorated in traditional Tharu style have attached batroom

Awesome weekend at Bardia
