Overview

Jewels of Nepal

    With the Jewels of Nepal Tour, you can get ready for an enthralling tour that highlights some of the country's most captivating landscapes and dynamic cultures. This tour offers an amazing journey from the busy streets of Kathmandu to the calm heights of Nagarkot, the quaint alleyways of Bandipur, the breathtaking beauty of Pokhara, and back to Kathmandu. The vibrant capital of Nepal, Kathmandu, is where your journey starts. Explore the historic temples of Pashupatinath and Swayambhunath, often known as the "Monkey Temple," and immerse yourself in its rich cultural tapestry. Admire the magnificent Boudhanath Stupa and meander about the ancient Durbar Square, where busy marketplaces and colourful street life coexist with traditional Newari architecture.

You will next go to Nagarkot, a charming hill village renowned for its breathtaking dawn views of the Himalayas. Get up early to see the sun rising over the horizon and bathing the rough mountains in golden hues, creating a stunning picture of snow-capped peaks. Nagarkot's serene ambience provides an ideal respite from the bustle of the city and an opportunity to reacquaint yourself with the natural world. Proceed to Bandipur from Nagarkot, a stunningly restored hill town that evokes a sense of travelling back in time. Explore its cobblestone alleyways, take in the classic Newari architecture, and take in the expansive vistas of the valleys and hillsides around you. The allure of Bandipur is its unique combination of culture, history, and breathtaking natural beauty.

Pokhara, a lakeside treasure well-known for its tranquil scenery and adventure possibilities, is your next stop. Discover the serene Phewa Lake, walk to the famous Tal Barahi Temple situated on an island, and admire the breathtaking Annapurna Range vistas from the World Peace Pagoda. Pokhara is a mecca for adventure seekers as well, with opportunities for trekking, boating, and paragliding. Lastly, spend one more day of discovery by travelling back to Kathmandu.
