This trip offered me the opportunity to visit a destination like Nepal with ease and serenity: above all, I did not have to worry about transport from one place to another. The quality and comfort of the bus is excellent and having to spend many hours and many days in the bus, this is a very important aspect. Thanks to the local guide, it is possible to learn about the local culture and customs and experience them first hand.

An exclusive 12-day journey curated for discerning travelers eager to explore Nepal's diverse treasures efficiently. Our meticulously designed itinerary encompasses the nation's prime attractions, from the UNESCO-listed temples and palaces dotted across the Kathmandu Valley to the exhilarating wildlife safari in Chitwan National Park and the captivating lakeside city of Pokhara.
While Nepal is renowned for its towering mountains, including eight of the world's fourteen eight-thousanders, such as the iconic Mt. Everest, our concise itinerary offers a unique perspective. Witness the awe-inspiring majesty of these peaks during a scenic mountain flight.
Our adventure commences in Kathmandu, where we allocate two days to immerse ourselves in the city's rich cultural tapestry. Uncover revered sites like the Swayambhunath Stupa, Kathmandu Durbar Square, Pashupatinath Temple, Boudhanath Stupa, Patan Durbar Square, Bhaktapur Durbar Square, and Changunarayan Temple.
Continuing our journey, we proceed to the picturesque lakeside haven of Pokhara for a two-night stay, with a highlight being the breathtaking sunrise vista over the Annapurna mountain range from Sarangkot.
Next, our path leads to Chitwan, a lowland district renowned for Chitwan National Park, which offers captivating safaris and remarkable wildlife encounters. The park is home to various species, with Bengal tigers and one-horned rhinos among its notable residents.
We conclude our tour back in Kathmandu, beginning with an exhilarating one-hour mountain flight that provides breathtaking vistas of Nepal's iconic peaks. On our final day, we explore the historic town of Kirtipur, located on the outskirts of Kathmandu, where we delve into the rich culture of the indigenous Newar community, indulge in authentic Newari cuisine, and immerse ourselves in the local heritage.

A culture filled experience with knowledgeable guides, who are passionate about their job. A unique trip with some extraordinary buildings, structures and places to see with downtime too to explore a little more.
Our guide, Sudarshan kc, was the best guide I've had on any Explore trip I've done (4, so far). He was really knowledgeable, gentle, warm, funny, & friendly, he looked after our group fantastically. Nothing was too much trouble, his recurrent phrase was 'anything is possible'. The tour itself was brilliant & flowed really well, despite the longer road journeys due to the landslides that had occurred a few wks before. In fact, I'd go as far to say those journeys were actually quite an adventure in themselves! For me, it was a perfect trip, the 4 days trekking were amazing, challenging at times, but worth the effort to see the stunning views of the mountains. The teahouses were simple but really welcoming, & in fab locations for views. Pokhara was a beautiful place for a bit of a rest, the calm lake, great shopping, & places to eat. Chitwan was outstanding, especially with the rhino sightings, & close encounters!
I was lucky to have a great group of people to travel with too, which made the trip a lot of fun.
Kathmandu is exactly what you'd expect, a city full of life, bustling traffic & historic sights. People are very warm & friendly.
I'd recommend this trip wholeheartedly.
I wanted to stay longer, & shed tears when I left. Many thanks.

The itinerary is very well thought out with lots to see and do. Everyday had a highlight and the Nepalese are so friendly and inviting. The views of the Himalayas in Nagarkot and Pokhara were stunning. The hotels were in excellent locations throughout. There are walks for those who want to and options for those who don't. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone, regardless of physical ability. Our tour leader, Su, was excellent and worked tirelessly to ensure our safety, enjoyment and general happiness. He is the best leader I have had out of some 27 tours. This is Explore's strong point - they know how to pick and train tour leaders and Su was the best of the best.
