Mango Tree Lodge

Best place best service and most of all their dedication towards the guest is tremendous …it’s been one of the finest experiences being there..i will again surely choose mango tree lodge on my futher upcoming trip to Bardiya and recommend everyone all well ..

The owner Rajen was so sweet and looked after everything I needed. He was extremely flexible and understanding of traveller concerns and queries, and he helped me organize a program as a solo traveller that fit my goals, time, and budget. Rajen and veejay and Mahindra the forest guide absolutely pampered me everyday. They were super professional and skilled. Mahindra spotted animals I never woulda seen without his guidance and knowledge. I’m so glad I made the trip to Bardiya it was absolutely worth it!

We are three guys who have stayed 5 nights at the best jungle lodge, Mango Tree lodge! It’s a familydriven lodge, and you leave as a part of the family🔥 Everything from the room, food, service and safaris were outstanding! We chose to Camp inside the jungle for one night with an amazing view over the river. On the walking safaris we got close to elephants, rhinos, deers, and saw footprints of Sloth Bears! I’ve been on plenty safaris in India, South Africa, Kenya, Tanazania, Uganda and Zambia, but Mango Tree Lodge is one of a kind! 🌴❤️

Rajend and team welcomed us warmly and showed us around the Bardyia jungle. The rooms echo the traditional Tharu style and are clean and comfortable. Rajend’s wife is in charge of the food which was delicious and varied. Thank you for a great stay.

Mango Tree Lodge is located in the secluded village area of Thakudwara. The lodge is surrounded by fields and small rivers. The Bardia National Park is nearby, it can be reached in just a few minutes by jeep. The lodge has a beautiful outdoor area with a pavilion right in the middle. The stone floor and spacious roof of the pavilion provide a cool place to hang out and relax. Rajen, the owner, has built the bungalows in typical Tharu style using natural resources. The bungalows each have very spacious bed room and a large bathroom. Although COVID has not left this place untouched, it is wonderful and built with love - a small oasis in a gorgeous scenery. The food is incredibly tasty. They offer a good selection of homemade dishes, which is always prepared freshly from homegrown vegetables. Rajen and his son really try to make everything possible. They are very friendly and always super helpful. Rajen is also a very experienced guide. He knows everything about the national park, the surrounding environment and where to best spot wildlife. Together with his crew they offer you an unforgettable time in the jungle – you can choose between full or half day walking, or Jeep safaris and rafting. A great experience is also an overnight stay in Bardia National Park in a tent, which we can highly recommend. We visited Bardia during the dry season in May – although temperatures tend to reach 35 degrees (and more), its actually the best time to visit the park and to spot wildlife. We saw a lot of game – Elephants, Monkeys, Rhinos and Tigers and Leopards! Actually, this makes you forget the hot temperatures. We have been on several safaris and highly recommend to stay at Mango Tree Lodge!

A lovely place with an authenthic nature feel. The owner, Rajen, was really kind and helpful. The food was amazing and the rooms are comfortable. We did a walking safari and the other day a jeep safari where Rajen was our guide. He knows a lot about the nature and the animals. A perfect place to stay in Bardiya!
