Are prices per room or per person?
Rooms are priced per room per night, including breakfast and taxes, for the number of guests shown. Dorm beds and jungle tower nights are per person. Activities and packages are per person; private transfers are per vehicle.
Do I have to pay when I book?
No. You can pay online by card now, ask for a payment link and pay a deposit later, or pay on arrival for most rooms. We hold your room as soon as the booking is made.
What is the cancellation policy?

What time are check-in and check-out?
Check-in from 14:00 and check-out by 11:00 at most lodges. Early check-in or late check-out can be arranged when the room is free – just ask.
When is the best time to visit Chitwan?
October to March is cool and dry with excellent wildlife and birdwatching. February to May is hot, but the grass is cut and animals gather at water, so sightings are excellent. June to September is the monsoon: green and quiet, with some park areas closed. See our best time to visit guide.
How do I get to Chitwan?
By private car (5–6 hours from Kathmandu), tourist bus (6–7 hours) or a 25-minute flight to Bharatpur. We can book any of these – see how to reach Chitwan.
