Tour Highlights

Welcome to the Himalayan Heights at the Kathmandu & Nagarkot experience, a rare journey with breathtaking scenery combined with incomparable cultural heritage. Your adventure begins at the vibrant capital city of Kathmandu, a bustling metropolis that works as a gateway to Nepal's great traditions and fine landmarks. Here, you will explore the UNESCO World Heritage Sites like Durbar Square, Swayambhunath, and the revered Boudhanath, each offering the country's ancient glorious past. Go through narrow, stone-lined alleyways lined through the intricately carved temples and stupas to the great atmosphere. Don't miss the opportunity to visit Pashupatinath, a famed Hindu temple complex on the banks of the Bagmati River, where you can also witness the mesmerizing evening Arati rites and rituals, filled through the sounds of chanting, the ringing of great bells, and the glow of candles brighten up the night.

As you venture the Nagarkot, located around 32 kilometres northeast of Kathmandu at an elevation of around 7,200 feet, you will go by lush forests and stunning scenery. Once an ancient fort used to monitor neighboring kingdoms, Nagarkot later became a great summer retreat for the royal family and is known as a popular hill station. Here, you can see through the breathtaking sunrises over the great Himalayan peaks, including Everest, Annapurna, and Manaslu, which go across the horizon. Engage through hikes of the natural landscape, participate in the village tours that connect you to the local cultures, and dine at great restaurants offering stunning views. This Himalayan Heights Kathmandu-Nagarkot experience gives the finest mixture of cultural unity and great mountain scenes, making it a genuinely immemorial lifetime journey.
