Exiting trip in Chitwan
Never expected it could be so enjoyable at Chitwan with all the great nature and jungle activities. I wished could stay longer for another few days, but 2 / 3 days was the limit for me. Next time I would like to extend a few days more spending time in Chitwan. It was just fabulous thanks to Vertex Holiday for the wonderful holidays in Nepal and Chitwan especially.
