In the Heavens

A leisurely wander amongst the bazaars and temples of Kathmandu and the countryside around Bhaktapur gives you a wonderful introduction to everyday Nepali life. Leaving the capital behind visit historic Nuwacot staying in a converted farmhouse on a terraced hillside. Enjoy the traditional atmosphere and hills of Bandipur, an undiscovered gem, before continuing to Pokhara, famous for its beautiful lake-side setting and for stunning views of the Annapurna.

Non-trekking trip

Many people want to see the Himalaya but simply don’t want to trek - with this itinerary there are plenty of opportunities to stretch your legs if you wish; but you avoid a dedicated trek, and there is no shortage of adventure. Sarankot, for example, is reached by road and provides stunning views of the Annapurna massif. You can return to Pokhara by vehicle or ramble down the hill through the hamlets that dot the hillside - perfect!

Chitwan Jungle

Head to Chitwan National Park for an unforgettable elephant ride to try to spot rhino, plus if you’re really lucky, the elusive tiger! Closer to the ground you can explore the park by foot or canoe. Finally you return to Kathmandu for some last-minute shopping or a dramatic over-flight of Mt. Everest (optional).
