As the nomenclature of the trip suggests, “The Amazing Nepal Tour” is indeed an amazing tour package, familiarizing you to the grandeur of the four “must visit” cities of Nepal, viz. Kathmandu, Pokhara, Chitwan and Nagarkot.
Kathmandu, the flamboyant capital of Nepal, is not just a conglomeration of sophisticated hotels and lavish shopping malls, but also a heritage city, embellished with an array of renowned historical, cultural and religious landmarks. Be it the pious Hindu shrine of Pasupatinath, the mammoth stupa of Boudhanath or a monumental display of artistic ancient palaces of Basantapur Durbar Square, they all have made their way to the UNESCO’s world heritage list. Exploring these famed historical and cultural emblems, gets you acquainted to Nepal’s enticing history and culture.
Just about a 25 minutes’ flight away from the capital, Pokhara is another tourist paradise boisterously poised under the canopy of fascinating Himalayan chain. Talk about the luscious Annapurna range, the very gracious Fishtail Mountain or the stunning lakes like Rupa and Begnas, Pokhara cuddles them all! While you have a very composed indulgence in Pokhara’s natural beauty during the day, you can just cut-loose and go crazy in one of the pubs here in the night.
If you are little overdone with the hills and mountains of Kathmandu and Pokhara, we will drive you all the way to the forest -clad plains of Chitwan, almost as flat as a pancake! Yes, sweltering heat and hot air could pester you a bit, but, if you have the toughness to endure them, you will find Chitwan like a heaven in the wilds. The Chitwan National Park is an abode to a number of exotic species of floras and faunas. An array of jungle activities like- elephant safari, jungle walk, canoeing etc. will certainly evoke the bubbly and wild side of you.
Just as you begin to think that you have experienced the best of Nepal, we are ready to prove that you just made a premature statement! Saving the best for the last, we take you to Nagarkot, a picturesque hill station about an hour’s drive away from Kathmandu. Nagarkot, a favored summer camp of the former Royals, is blessed with jaw-dropping natural beauty and incredible mountainous vistas. Staying in one of the finest resorts here, we relish the views of some of the tallest snow clad giants in the world- including the mightiest Everest, sample the wide range of menus, simultaneously breathing the fresh air of the hills.
