On a clear day, flying into Kathmandu is an exhilarating experience. It’s almost joyful to see the mountain ranges below you covered in snow, which sets off a series of unforgettable events that stay with you for a very, very long time. Additionally, as soon as your aircraft touches down at Kathmandu’s Tribhuvan International Airport, a member of our waiting support crew will be there to meet and greet you and take you to your hotel.

We started our tour with a visit to Boudhanath – the largest stupa in Nepal and the center of Tibetan culture in Kathmandu. The stupa is designed as a giant mandala (representing the Buddhist universe). Our next destination is Pashupatinath Temple, dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva and considered the holiest Hindu temple in Nepal. Here you can witness the Hindu cremation ritual at “Aryaghat”, the temple’s cremation ground. Then you head to Patan, 5 km southeast of Kathmandu Valley. Patan is one of Kathmandu’s three medieval towns and a destination for art connoisseurs. We visit Patan Durbar Square, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Located in the square are the Patan Museum (originally Malla Palace), Krishna Mandir, a stone temple of Lord Krishna with 21 minarets and reliefs depicting scenes from the epics Mahabharata and Ramayana, the royal bathhouse or “ Tushahity” and surrounding areas. Hindu and Buddhist temples..

After a filling breakfast, you travel along the winding roadway toward Pokhara, which is 200 kilometers from Kathmandu. You will be escorted to the top resorts or hotels of your choosing when you arrive in Pokhara. Pokhara’s breathtaking view of snow-capped mountain peaks and beautiful beauty will fascinate you. Intriguing caverns like Mahendra Gupha and Gupteshwor Cave, hypnotic lakes like Phewa, Bindabasini Temple, Davis Fall, the canyon of the Seti River, and Tibetan refugee camps are just a few of Pokhara’s excellent tourist attractions.

You return to Kathmandu via plane (or by car). You can spend the rest of the day engaging in autonomous pursuits of your interest after arriving in Kathmandu.

We will drive you to the airport to catch your trip home with our Nepali support staff. If you’d rather stay longer, you can do short tours like a safari in a national park or go rafting, for example.
