Itinerary
Day 1: Kathmandu
Our hotel is located in Patan, as such we have included the entrance ticket to nearby Patan Durbar Square where you can explore on your own.
Day 2: Kathmandu
Take a tour of the world heritage site of Bhaktapur and visit Swayambhunath Temple, also known as the monkey temple, the oldest shrine in Kathmandu. Its lofty white dome and glittering golden spire are visible for many miles!
Later, opt to visit Pashupatinath, the most famous Hindu temple in the country, located on the banks of the holy Bagmati River.
Day 3: Kathmandu/Pokhara
A lively ride along stunning scenery brings us from Kathmandu to Pokhara.
Day 4: Pokhara
Day 5: Pokhara to Chitwan National Park
Travel to this UNESCO World Heritage Site and enjoy an overnight cultural experience with the indigenous Tharu community. Experience their culture through dance and song, along with a traditional meal in the familial dining area. In the evening, retreat back to your private thatched cottage to watch the buffalo and goats roaming about.
Continue on to the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Royal Chitwan National Park. Known as the Terai Tarai ("moist land"), the landscape you travel through today is a belt of marshy grassland, savannah, and forests at the base of the Himalayas.
Day 6: Chitwan National Park
Explore the national park by 4x4 safari before a guided half-day walk inside the park. Enjoy free time to enjoy some bird watching.
The Terai-Duar region is home to the endangered Indian rhinoceros, as well as elephants, Bengal tigers, bears, leopards, and other wild animals. The Royal Chitwan National Park and Royal Bardia National Park preserve significant sections of habitat for these animals, making them home to some of the greatest concentrations of rhinoceros and tigers left in South Asia.

Nepal combines Himalayan views (when visible), golden temples, charming villages, and jungle wildlife and is a great destination to explore. I'll be back one day again to revisit Pokhara as it had a great vibe.

Wonderful experience of Nepal, leader Madhu was professional and knowledgeable. Good mix of sights, food, culture and history.
05/15/2024
Nepal should have been an unforgettable experience. However it has a serious pollution problem which made it difficult to enjoy the scenery etc. The Himalayas were not visible. The road trips were too long at 9 to 12 hours on very poor condition roads.
05/05/2024
Great insight into the Highlights of Nepal, such a beautiful country with tasty food and welcoming locals. The tour was well organised and well managed throughout by our CEO.
