For those who want to experience life in the jungle while not giving up on their basic comforts, then Camp Rhino may be the answer. The eco-resort, which is a good base from which to explore the Kaziranga National Park, is located opposite the Kanchanjuri view point on the NH-37 highway. Even when the park is closed, visitors can see the famous one-horned rhino from the resort tower.

Camp Rhino provides eight luxurious bungalows, each of which has an attached bath and shower. Located at some distance from one another, so visitors can enjoy their privacy, each bungalow have sofas, chairs and tables, which can be moved to the porch or lawn outside to enjoy the early morning sun. A tip: do ask to drink the local tea which is grown here in the resort. For food, the camp also provides a dining hall where north-Indian, Chinese and local cuisine can be provided. Those so inclined can even visit the local shops with the manager, and help to select the produce themselves. In the evening, post a visit to the Kaziranga National Park, campfire barbeques are provided upon request.

For those looking for luxury and hotel-like comforts, the Camp Rhino is not the best option. But for those looking to experience nature, this is the place to visit. The resort manger also organizes personalized tours through the Kaziranga, for those looking to see specific animals such as the waterfowl, which is especially ideal for those who are animal lovers.
