Morning mist lifts off the Rapti River as a dugout canoe cuts a narrow wake; the bank holds a mottled line of gharials basking in sun, and somewhere deeper a one‑horned rhino snuffles through tall grass. That first-hour hush in Chitwan National Park sets the tone for a 2‑night, 3‑day program that mixes jeep safaris, guided nature walks, canoe rides and village visits.
