The Langtang Valley trek is popular among those seeking a great Himalayan adventure in a short period of time.
This trek brings you to the Langtang Valley, just south of the Tibetan border. We begin with a bus ride from Kathmandu to Syabrubesi, the starting point of the Langtang trek. After reaching Syabrubesi, the trek begins in a lush valley in a tropical environment. Along side the trail will be green hills, large patches of rice paddies, and Nepal's national flower, the rhododendron. You will also get to experience an abundance of birds and other wildlife such as wild boar and monkeys who all inhabiting this region. In the background looms several snow-capped mountains giving you knowledge about that soon you will leave the tropical climate and enter colder climatic zones.
From Langtang village, the trail continues to Kyanjin Gompa (3,740 m) a place with not only great mountain views but also the local Yala Cheese Factory. A visit to the Yala Cheese Factory (4.633 m) and the small lakes beyond Yala is worthwhile, and we will make that excursion if you feel up for it.
As you move up the Langtang Valley, the Tibetan influence becomes more noticeable. Langtang is one of the few areas in Nepal highly influenced by Tibet, bordering the region to the North.
Another highlight of this trip is the day hike up Tserko Ri (4,984m), a 'small' and safe peak to hike in the area. Although challenging, when atop you will be rewarded with spectacular Himalayan views and a sensation of achievement. If you do not feel up for the hike another option is to trek further up the valley and explore more ground.
We are looking forward to providing you with a fantastic trip.

Very well organised tour from the start to the finish. This was an extremely busy tour with lots of walking. The sites included in this tour were wonderful. The guides were very knowledgeable, friendly and fun. Transport on this tour was a little squishy.

I loved this trip. I enjoyed every minute of it. Jose was a great guide. He was very informative. He made sure everyone was looked after. There was just enough touring and spare time. And David Solanes was brilliant. I cannot recommend this tour highly enough.
Great trip, particularly being on the backroads experiencing more of the local life. Equipment was in very good condition and staff and locals very friendly.

Another wonderful trip with World Expeditions. In addition to the expected highlights of Petra, Wadi Rum, snorkelling in the Red Sea and floating in the Dead Sea, the unexpected delights of visiting a local family at Um Qais (and cooking/dining with them), the expansive Roman ruins at Jerash and our extraordinary driver Firas made this trip wonderful.
The small additional cost of having a representative meet us at the airport and guide us through immigration was well worth it. The process was very quick and smooth.
We would thoroughly recommend this trip.

My friend and I had a fantastic time on our trip. We were met by someone who helped us get the necessary paperwork, traveled to Wadi rum (we slept), stopped at a nice shop where we purchased beautiful scarves, and departed with our Wadi Rum local guide! Our guide was awesome, know all of the best spots to visit and photo spots as well! He was kind and attentive as I got sick at the beginning of our journey. We enjoyed staying at Sun Camp - the staff was so kind to us and generous in their efforts. We were fasting and they prepared food for us that night so we wouldn't be hungry. Our driver drove us to Petra (we slept), checked in to the hotel, and thoroughly enjoyed our guide who was also a local! We definitely benefited from his knowledge and connections! We enjoyed dinner in a cave and the following day our driver made arrangements for us to add an additional stop (for a cost). We were blessed to visit Jesus' baptism site before enjoying the amazing Dead Sea!
A wonderful and memorable Halong experience. The staff at the office and the tour guide are very enthusiastic. The local food is delicious and Halong Bay is beautiful. Highly recommend this tour!
Enjoy River Tubing with us on the Penet River, located in Sangeh - approximately 1 hour and 20 minutes from Nusa Dua, Kuta and Sanur and only 45 minutes from Ubud. Set in a beautiful rural environment with unspoiled countryside views, you will experience an unforgettable journey, floating and riding the river for around 3.5 km, taking 1.45 - 2 hours.
What You Can Expect:
Morning pick up from your hotel and drive through villages and countryside of Bali. Then as we arrive in Tanah Wuk, get ready to enjoy a memorable adventure tubing! Before the trip begins, you will receive a safety briefing and instruction from our professional guides.
Guests are ensured a fun, safe and adventurous journey from start until the end of the activity. Each person will be protected with private tubing, safety helmet, elbow pads and knee pads, led by an experienced guide.
At the end of the trip, you will be invited to take a look at some beautiful horizontal natural caves that have been there for thousands of years. A very special and unique thing to do in Bali.
The journey is completed with lunch served at our restaurant, which overlooks the Penet River valley.
I liked the itinerary very much. Our tour guide Jose was very knowledgeable about the sites we visited. I was not informed beforehand that this was a English and Spanish mixed language tour, Joses English was good but sometimes hard to understand. I also did not know that we would be having people added to our tour almost every day and some leaving almost every day. I enjoy tours more when you have a change to get to know who you are traveling with and with a mix of English and Spanish it felt like I was on my own and traveling with strangers.

The Nepal and Tibet Tour has been designed to combine the most exciting highlights from both of the countries and give a thorough overview of the life and nature in this fascinating part of the world.
The tour starts off in Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal and the capital of Nepal’s culture, religion and architecture. The vibrant history of this mystical and ancient place has left its mark in the distinctive architecture that ornaments the city. The Himalayan giants are visible from the city itself and combine with the ancient architecture for spectacular views. We'll take you to the edge of the Kathmandu valley to the famous tourist destination of Nagarkot Village, where you will get an even more spectacular view of the Himalayan range.
Nepal is much more than just the Himalayas. We'll take you to Chitwan National park to explore Nepal from a completely different angle. Chitwan is the most visited national park in Nepal, famous for its elephant safari.
After Chitwan, head to Tibet – a secluded piece of land rich in spectacular landscapes, mystical monasteries and vibrant culture. Travel through small Tibetan villages whose inhabitants are one of the friendliest and most welcoming people you will ever meet.
The biggest highlight in Tibet is visiting the capital Lhasa, together with its royal palace and spectacular monasteries. Travelers will visit the famous Potala Palace and Jokhang Temple, both of which offer immense spiritual rejuvenation and inspiration. The Potala Palace features an overwhelming array of intricate murals, temples and stupas, in addition to the tombs of eight previous Dalai Lamas, exquisite Tibetan Mandalas and other relics of Tibetan history. The tour continues to Namtso Lake in Tibet.
