# Pokhara to Chitwan: How to Plan the Transfer Day

> Plan your Pokhara to Chitwan transfer around the correct lodge drop-off, park access and a wildlife outing the next day.

Before booking your ride from Pokhara, ask your Chitwan lodge where you should get off. “Chitwan” covers more than one possible arrival point, and a drop-off that looks close on a map can still require another ride.
Start with your accommodation
Send your lodge the operator’s drop-off name and planned arrival window. Ask whether it can arrange pickup and what to do if you’re running late. Keep the address and contact details available offline.
Choose a bus or private transfer
A bus is practical if the arrival point and timing work for your stay. A private vehicle makes more sense when you need a specific drop-off or are coordinating a group. Ask about luggage and stops before paying.
Save the main outing for tomorrow
Treat the afternoon as flexible. Check in, confirm your guide and park arrangements, and go for a short activity only if there’s time. Planning a morning outing gives you more room to absorb a delay on the road.
