How to Get to Bardia
From Kathmandu: Daily buses run from Kathmandu to Mahendrenagar (alight at Ambassa). The bus takes around 17 hours and is a beautiful though long journey as you pass through mountains and forests and then through the mainly flat and rural Terai.
Bardia vs Chitwan
Bardia National Park is the best place in Nepal to see Bengal tigers! It is more difficult, however, still quite likely the sighting of rhinos in the park.
