Medieval City of Kathmandu Your Himalayan adventure begins in the ancient capital of Nepal, Kathmandu. You’ll visit Hindu holy shrines at Pashupatinath and join the hustle and bustle of daily life in Durbar Square. From here you drive to the tiny hill village of Bandipur, untouched by modern tourism with superb views across the Marsyangdi river valley to the Himalaya beyond. Pokhara & Chitwan National Park The two centres of Pokhara provide contrasting views of Nepal – one a modern tourist section, the other is the old town, built in traditional Newari style. This is an ideal base for walking, and there’s an optional overnight trek to Ghandruk with excellent views of Macchapucchare Fishtail Mountain. You then drive to Chitwan NP for jungle safaris, to hopefully see rare rhinos and tigers, by elephant, boat, jeep and on foot before returning to Kathmandu. Responsible Travel The ground agent in Nepal has been working very hard to build a new communitysportsyouth centre in a small village near the Trisuli River. For every booking we receive to Nepal, The Adventure Company donates US5 to continue the project; you will be able to see the centre en route to Bandipur |
