Best base for exploring Bardia National Park.....Great atmosphere, great food, great hosts....rooms are clean and comfortable, equipped with ceiling fans and mosquito nets on beds and spacious bathrooms....Jack and his team are possibly the best wildlife spotters around. In two days they where able to spot and show us 3 bengal tigers, 4 rhinos (two of them mama and baby rhino crossing the river),a monitor lizard,a snake, a wild elephant, inumerable number of deers, monkeys and birds, and a very very close encounter with a leopard.

2 day Wildlife spotting

If you're going to the jungle, then it's good to stay somewhere which fits into the environment and respects it. 

Too many of the local lodges become exploitative to the jungle, the local people and also the guests. 

It is always better to stay somewhere with humanity

Helpful people

I cant reccomend Jack, Pratap & family highly enough, from the moment i messaged them they were professional, friendly and incredibly accommodating.

The knowledge they show when out in the jungle is unparalleled - from knowing the history of the tigers we were looking for to birdlife & plant species i was in my absolute element!

Not only did we see Tigers, Rhino & all 5 deer species, we all left with a great understanding of how Bardia works and what its like to track & see tigers firsthand. I dont think theres a better pair of guides available, both very intuned with the ways of the jungle and hands down will be back to see what Kingfisher have in store for a longer trip.

If you want authentic, friendly and knowledgeable then look no further, add to that the clear family and charitable feeling the brothers gave off and you dont need to look any further, every guest we met shared Kingfishers perspective on life - Thank you Kingfisher! 



Authentic, knowledgeable, kind and caring. The best way to experience Bardia 

Bardia Kingfisher was recommended by our guidebook and it didn’t disappoint. Good value chalets in a very friendly, family environment that made us feel so welcome. And Pratap our guide obviously went above and beyond to show us the most and give us the best experience. 
We would heartily recommend and wouldn’t consider staying anywhere else if we return.

Great safari experiences!

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!

Absolutely amazing!

It's hard to know where to even begin with this incredible place! Even before we arrived it was so easy to contact the resort with quick replies; they even kindly helped us sort our transport from Kathmandu so all we had to do was show up at the bus station and they dropped us right at the resort. We had originally booked to stay for 5 nights and booked an extra week after about an hour of arriving; that is how instantly welcome you are made to feel. It felt more like a homestay than anything with the family who live here opening up every part of their life to you while allowing you to get on with your own thing if that's what you want. The rooms themselves are extremely good for what you pay; a comfortable bed with a mosquito net and your own bathroom with shower and toilet. I was extremely ill when I arrived with a stomach infection and I can't thank them enough for their help over those three days, they gave me all natural remedies and cooked special meals for me to help fight the infection and get my strength back and it worked within days. The actual jungle tours were nothing short of incredible. Our guide Jack was so knowledgeable about every aspect of the jungle and has some very fun stories, you can tell how passionate and respectful he is about the jungle and all of it's animals. We saw 2 rhino's on our first day and thanks to Jack's tracking skills we saw a long sighting of a rhino and even a tiger on the second day! We can't recommend these safaris enough, it was an experience we will never forget whether it be with Jack or his brother who is just as passionate. Outside of the tours there are some lovely walks right at your doorstep through the traditional village with stunning views and very friendly villagers. We've never stayed somewhere more peaceful. If you want an authentic stay while you're in Nepal and are interested in wildlife and nature this is the only place to come. Thank you so much again to everyone at Kingfisher, we hope we'll be back soon! 

What an experience! 

Nice place. Rural life, peace. Helpful people.
We were there for 3 days. Good food supplied. Not expensive rate for rooms. There are many lodges there with same facilities and 4 times the rate.
Paved road to the lodge. After this lodge there are lodges too but no paved roads

Good place

From the moment we landed at Nepalganj until we went back to Kathmandu we had a great time.
Everything was possible!
Even our pick up from the airport!
First we did a 3 day camping trip in Bardia National Park.
All arranged by Bardia Kingfisher. The really thought of everything. And also homered our wishes to be the only ones at the trip without any other tourists. Just us and our guide Jack and assistants. After we stayed another couple of days at their resort. It’s a really nice, small place, closest to the gate of the Bardia National Park.
And because it’s runned by family , you really feel right at home. Not like when you are at a bigger place, and you are just another tourist!
We loved it so much , that we ( Pratap, the brother of our guide Jack) changed our flight so we could stay longer. 
They really do everything to make your trip one to remember. We loved being at their place, and in the jungle.
In jungle we had the best guide you can get. He grew up there, and knows everything about the jungle and it’s animals. Normal we travel trough the African reserves on our own, so we know a little about how things work..
But Jack showed us many new things and learned us a lot about the jungle of Bardia and it’s animals. We couldn’t have picked a better guide. And we saw them all; Elephants, Rhinos, Tiger and more! 
So our dream to see these magnificent animals came true!
And we will go back for sure!!
To stay at there beautiful place, and the go into the jungle with Jack

So , Jack, Pratap, Anju thank you very much for the amazing time we had with you! We will always remember our time at Bardia Kingfisher, and we will be back for sure

Bardia Kingfisher, where  people with real passion for wildlife, nature, hospitality, give you the time of your live!

Bardia Kingfisher is a marvelous family run lodge with consistently good home cooked food, strong local roots and the best guide service for Bardia. The owners go out of their way to make guests happy

A great place to stay while visiting Bardia

fantastic time in the jongle - no not a spelling error this is what they call it!
takes 1 day to get there and spend three full days there and one day out.
This allows for a jeep safari a walking safari and a raft safari and each is worth it WOW
Saw 6 tigers (missed no 7) 10 rhinos a mating a wild bull elephant with tusks, crocodiles in the wild a MASSIVE python and birds a plenty (plus heaps of tiger food aka deer,   -   plus monkeys and jackels) Full on fun day after day. these guys love their jongle and will work their butts off to find a tiger for you but do go with their suggestions on how to go about it.
Good spacious room with hot shower good food and flush toilet in a village setting where they still plaster their houses by hand with mud (mozzie screens on the windows and a fan)!!
Family business, great guides.
Have realistic expectations and you will have a ball.
