Nepal Cultural Tour

Today, you arrive to Kathmandu and we transfer you to your hotel. After arriving at the hotel you rest and rejuvenate and observe the locality. Then, a member of Travel Nepal will brief about the itinerary on this same day.

While our back-end staff is busy making plans for the day ahead, we’d want to take advantage of the opportunity to tour the city and see some intriguing historical monuments. We’d go to Swayambunath, which is also known as a monkey temple, Basantapur Durbar Square, which is a historic palace courtyard, and Patan Durbar Square on this day.

Visit Boudhanath stupa, a Buddhist shrine, and Pashupatinath temple, a sacred Hindu temple dedicated to the god Shiva and an open-air cremation platform, after breakfast. Afternoon sightseeing in Bhaktapur. This city is a hidden gem and a pristine representation of medieval Nepal, as well as an exquisite, antique courtyard. The prehistoric Durbar square, with its 55 windows, the pagoda-style residences and temples, the pottery plaza, where people spend all day producing clay pottery, and the raw way of life is the city’s principal attractions.

After breakfast in Kathmandu on this day of our Nepal Cultural Tour, we start our day early. After collecting our belongings and entering the truck, we set out on Nepal’s busiest and most important route. We leave the highway after about 100 kilometers and join the new highway dug into the hillside beside the Narayani River. After a 2-hour ride, we reach level country and then the Chitwan National Park’s protected area. On this particular day, we can enjoy the River Beach, as well as tour the surrounding area and learn about the culture.

Today is an exciting day, and we have a great deal of energy to start the day. We go after breakfast to the Elephant Ride location, where we will ride through a beautiful green jungle and see some of the world’s rarest creatures in their most natural state. As the day progresses, we travel to Budhi Rapti for canoeing, where we will see some of the largest Ghariyals and Crocodiles lazing in the sun up close. Before calling it a day, we’ll go to the elephant breeding center and enjoy a fantastic dinner and cultural program.

After breakfast, we promptly go to our next destination before the day begins to pick up. Lumbini, about 150 kilometers west of Chitwan, is the birthplace of Buddha, a saint whose teachings gave rise to Buddhism. Lumbini is located on the Indian border and has a hot and humid climate. We arrive in Lumbini the same day and in under 4 hours, and the drive is not taxing on the body. We unpack our belongings at the hotel and head off to explore Buddha’s birthplace. We’d observe a variety of monasteries built by various countries, where bald-headed children, teenagers, and elderly individuals dressed in maroon robes known as lamas perform daily rituals and prayers.

On this day, we travel to one of Nepal’s most beautiful cities, and we leave early. We travel to Pokhara through the main route that runs beside some big tributaries, covering 150 kilometers in 5 hours. By the time we arrive in Pokhara, it is past midday, and we don’t have anything to do there. We may enjoy tasting cuisine from all over the world and taking a walk around the Fewa Lake, which is the center of Pokhara’s people’s lives. Take advantage of the opportunity to go boating and visit the temple, which is attractively positioned in the center of the lake, to photograph the sunset on this vast lake, and to enjoy the stunning views of the Annapurna range.

We can either start this day early in the morning by visiting Sarangkot and seeing the sunrise, or we can rest and start late in the morning by taking in the lake life and cuisine. Aside from the magical lakes and awe-inspiring mountains, Pokhara is a place of historical towns and temples. We’d also visit the famous Tal Barahi and Bindabasini shrines.

Today, we have our breakfast by 6:30 in the morning and make our way towards Kathmandu. Furthermore, the drive takes around 7 hours through bends of lush green hilly terrain and along the major tributaries, with a couple of breaks in between for snacks and lunch.

Today, the departure representative of Travel Nepal will drop you to the final destination for your final departure. Hope to see you on the further journey with us.
