Nepal is a land where the mighty Himalayas pierce the sky, ancient temples whisper stories of devotion, and lush jungles teem with life. This country invites you on a journey of discovery and wonder. Incredible Nepal tour begins in Kathmandu, a vibrant city where history and modernity intertwine. Here, the scent of incense drifts through narrow alleyways, golden stupas glisten in the sunlight, and bustling bazaars overflow with colorful handicrafts.
From Kathmandu, step into the medieval charm of Bhaktapur and Patan, where time seems to stand still. Wander through cobbled streets lined with intricately carved wooden palaces and sun-baked brick temples.
Leaving the city behind, the road winds through rolling hills to Daman. It is a hidden gem perched on a ridge. Here, the Himalayas unfold in a breathtaking panorama, their snow-capped peaks glowing at sunrise like a painter’s masterpiece. The journey continues to the wild heart of Chitwan National Park. It welcomes you with a lush realm where rhinos roam freely, tigers stalk through tall grasslands, and the calls of exotic birds fill the air. Glide silently down the Rapti River in a dugout canoe, or enjoy the thrilling jungle safari in search of elusive wildlife.
Next, the serene beauty of Pokhara awaits, which is located beside the tranquil Phewa Lake. Stroll along the lakeshore, where colorful boats bob on crystal waters. At dawn, the hills of Sarangkot and Nagarkot transform into nature’s grand theater. The first golden light spills over the Himalayas, illuminating the world below in a spectacle of color and shadow.
Incredible Nepal Tour kicks off Exploring the World Heritage Sites
Explore Pashupatinath Temple, the world's greatest Hindu pilgrimage. As you walk around the stone pavements and banks of the Bagmati River, you will see spiritual gurus, devoted followers, sellers, and roaming animals. What will pique your interest is the public cremation on the banks of the River Bagmati, an ancient Hindu custom that continues to this day. Later, we will visit Swayambhunath, a popular Buddhist pilgrimage site. Climb the steep stairs for a spectacular perspective of the Stupa and the Kathmandu Valley. It is thought that the stupa contains the account of how Kathmandu was formed. Later, we will visit Boudhanath, one of central Nepal's largest Buddhist stupas.

Explore the birthplace of Gautam Buddha, Incredibly Serene Lumbini
Visit Lumbini, one of the most important places in Nepal, the birthplace of Siddhartha Gautam, who later became known as Buddha. This is due to its link to the Prince who founded and spread the way of life to the world, now known as Buddhism. Siddhartha Gautam was born in Lumbini as a crown prince. The ruins of his Palace are still visible, along with various inscriptions of followers who have traveled to the place over the last 2600 years. Today, Lumbini is protected as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is filled with monasteries, Stupas, and temples built to pay homage to the great founder of Buddhism.
