Verified Companions in Chitwanचितवन
Chitwan — Nepal's tropical lowland — is a different country from the mountains. Here the air is warm and humid, the rivers are wide and slow, and the jungle hides rhinos, tigers, crocodiles, and over 500 bird species. Chitwan National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is the main draw, but the surrounding villages are equally fascinating: Tharu communities with their unique culture, cuisine, and stick dances. A verified Chitwan companion can guide your jungle walk, take you canoeing on the Rapti river at dawn, help you spot a one-horned rhino from a safe distance, and translate Tharu conversations over a dinner of dhikri and gundruk. Whether you're a wildlife enthusiast, a culture lover, or just need a break from the cold mountains, Chitwan rewards slow travel — and a local companion makes all the difference.

Hiring a companion in Chitwan — what you should know
Are all Chitwan companions verified?
Companions with a blue badge have completed our paid identity verification: they uploaded a government-issued ID (citizenship/passport/NID), a live selfie, and an AI face-match confirmed their identity. Admin reviews and approves manually. Look for the badge — but note that verification confirms identity, not character. Always exercise normal judgement.
How much does a Chitwan companion cost?
Companions set their own hourly rates — typically Rs. 500–2,000 per hour depending on their experience, languages spoken, and the type of activity. City tours tend to be cheaper than specialist trekking or photography guides. You'll see the rate on each companion's profile.
How do payments work?
Pay securely via eSewa, Khalti, ConnectIPS, NepalPay, FonePay QR, or Nepali mobile banking (NIC Asia, Global IME, Nabil). Your payment is held in escrow by SangiNepal and released to the companion only after your booking ends — so your money is protected if anything goes wrong.
Can I book the same companion again?
Yes — and we encourage it! If you book the same companion again within 30 days, you automatically get a 10% loyalty discount applied at checkout. Look for the green “Repeat client” banner when reviewing your booking.
