After breakfast, you will be taken for sightseeing to two medieval cities of the Kathmandu Valley.
Boudhanath Stupa: Situated on the northeastern outskirts of Kathmandu, this is another holy place for Buddhists. The dome, mandala, pinnacle, umbrella, and the whole Stupa itself are true works of art and beauty. The recently renovated Stupa, post-earthquake, provides serenity in the crowded city.
Patan Durbar Square: One of the best attractions here is the ancient royal palace of the Malla Kings of Lalitpur. There are various other temples such as Krishna Mandir, Bhimsen Temple, Taleju Bhawani Temple, etc., and the Patan Museum to explore.
Pashupatinath Temple: The holy Hindu temple, Pashupatinath, is the temple of Lord Shiva and also comprises many other temples. This UNESCO World Heritage site is magnificent in structure, and the holy Bagmati River that flows alongside is where cremation rituals are performed.
We woke up early today for the mountain flight. An hour of mountain flight gave us an incredible view of the snowcapped Himalayas, the beautiful Kathmandu valley, and the hills. After the early morning flight, we were taken sightseeing to two medieval cities of the Kathmandu Valley and Bhaktapur.
Swayambhunath Stupa, located on the top of the hill, is a Buddhist holy site also known as the monkey temple. The dome-shaped Stupa with eyes on all four sides is absolutely beautiful. The view of the whole Kathmandu valley from the top of the stupa is breathtaking.
Bhaktapur Durbar Square was the capital of Nepal during the great Malla Kingdom. This city has the best-preserved palace courtyards and old city center in Nepal and is listed as a world heritage site of UNESCO for its rich culture, temples, and wood, metal, and stone artworks. We visited attraction sites such as Bhaktapur Durbar Square, Nyatapola Temple, BhairabNath Temple, and Dattatreya Temple. After the sightseeing, we headed towards Nagarkot to witness the sunset and stayed overnight at the hotel.
Wake up early in the morning to witness the sunrise. After breakfast, we will get ready for the drive to the airport and fly to Pokhara, which only takes 25 minutes. Pokhara is a beautiful city in Nepal and is the gateway to the Annapurna region. The Annapurna mountain range and Fishtail Mountain are the main attractions of Pokhara and can easily be seen from the city. Upon reaching Pokhara, you will be transferred to the hotel. After refreshing, you can explore around the Phewa Lake and lakeside bazaar, and also take a boat ride on the lake. In the evening, you can witness the sunset from the World Peace Pagoda. Overnight stay at the hotel.
We spent the full day exploring the beautiful city of Pokhara. Early in the morning, we drove to Sarangkot Hill to take in the breathtaking sunrise view over the Himalayas and above the clouds. After breakfast, we got prepared for a full day of sightseeing in Pokhara. We enjoyed walking along the bank of Phewa Lake and admired the stunning reflection of the Fish Tail in the waters of the lake. Some other places we visited were the famous Bindabasini Temple, Davis Falls, and the International Mountain Museum. Overnight at Hotel. (B)
After breakfast, transfer to Pokhara airport and fly back to Kathmandu, which only takes 25 minutes. Explore the Thamel area and overnight at the hotel. (B)
The service is excellent and beyond my expectations. We arrived quite late yet everything from airport pick up and welcome went smoothly. The agenda is very well planned, we visited the 3 big Squares in Nepal with a whole-hearted and careful introduction from our friendly Nepalese tour guide. Nepal is very peaceful and Nepalese are very nice. Love the country and will come back.
Yes, I will recommend it to others as well because it provides excellent and satisfying service 😍
