About this trip
Eight days across Nepal's three big draws: the temples and stupas of Kathmandu, a jungle safari in Chitwan, and the lakeside town of Pokhara. It's a broad introduction to the country rather than a deep dive into any one place.
Kathmandu covers Hindu and Buddhist pilgrimage sites including Pashupatinath, Boudhanath and Swayambhunath, plus the Krishna Temple at Patan. From there you head to Chitwan for wildlife and Tharu village life, then on to Pokhara for lake views and optional adventure activities.
It's fully guided throughout, with a steady mix of culture, nature and light adventure that works for families, groups and anyone wanting a first proper look at Nepal beyond the trekking routes.
