Overview
This 13 day long Nepal experience tour gives it all. We start this wonderful journey by visiting the UNESCO World Heritage Sites (Kathmandu Durbar Square, Swayambhunath and Boudhanath). The sightseeing also extends to Tibetan Rufugee Camp in Patan where we watch the small Tibetan community engaged in making beautiful handmade handicrafts. Patan: the city of ancient art amazes us as we tour the Durbar Square.
Pokhara: an amazing lakecity which is as beautiful as could be. Pokhara provides the spectacular mountain vistas of Dhaulagiri, Manaslu, Machhapuchre and five of Annapurna Peaks. It is also the gateway to Annapurna-Region. In pokhara, we enjoy the amazing sunrise view from Sarangkot, we have fun boating around the phewa lake, we pay our visit to couple of splendid Landmarks including Mountain Museum, Davi’s Fall, World Peace Pagoda. Nonetheless, we stroll around the lake side which is equally fun in its own right.
The Annapurna Ghorepani poonhill trek also known as Annapurna sunrise trek or ghorepani poonhill trek. It is one of the best ‘less than a week’ long trek in Annapurna region of Nepal. This is a relatively easy trek through delightful gurung villages and rhododendron forests full of birds and deep sub – tropical valleys. This trek also gives scenic view of spectacular Annapurna (8091m), Dhaulagiri (8167m) with Machhapuchre (Fishtail) dominating the skyline especially from poonhill.
The next destination on this journey would be the Chitwan via central highway, which is the lifeline of Nepal. We spend two days enjoying the wildlife safari and several other fun activities in Chitwan National Park: one of the best parks in the whole Asia and a UNESCO World Heritage Sites. After admiring the beauty of the jungle to the fullest we head to Pokhara.
On the final day of the day, we do a mountain flight over Everest region and in so many ways is simply the best way to explore the majestic mountains and glaciers for domestic as well as international tourists. In this stupendous Everest Mountain Flight – you will fly to the top of the world’s largest mountain range giving you an amazing scenic flight for an hour.
