9 Days Tour in Nepal

Your arrival date is the first day of your 9 Days Tour in Nepal. If you're fortunate enough, you'd see a clear view of distant mountains from your airplane window. And the city view of Kathmandu with small buildings packed together just before you land is fascinating to watch.

Our airport representative will receive you from Kathmandu airport and transfer you to a hotel in Thamel. After helping you check in at the hotel, our staff will brief you about what to anticipate in the next 8 days of your tour in Nepal. You're now free to spend the rest of the day as you please. You can rest at the hotel or walk around the touristy streets of Thamel.

After having breakfast at the hotel, we'll take you on a sightseeing tour of the UNESCO World Heritage sites in Kathmandu. Throughout the day, you'll visit Kathmandu Durbar Square, Swayambhunath Temple (monkey temple), Pashupatinath Temple, and Bouddhanath Stupa.

Due to the abundance of monkeys in the vicinity, Syambhunath is popularly known as the Monkey Temple, especially among tourists who have difficulty saying "Syambhunath." It is one of Nepal's largest and most revered Buddhist temples. One of the three Durbar Squares in the Kathmandu Valley is Kathmandu Durbar Square, located in the center of Kathmandu city. It is where King Prithvi Narayan Shah lived and ruled after the unification of Nepal.

Similarly, one of Lord Shiva's largest temples, Pashupatinath Temple, is a well-liked Hindu pilgrimage site. The temple is situated on the bank of the Bagmati River, where you may observe the Hindu cremation ritual. Bouddhanath Stupa, a massive Buddhist monument keeping serenity amid the turmoil of Kathmandu city, is next on our Kathmandu tour.

On the 3rd day of our 9 days tour in Nepal, we drive through a scenic route from Kathmandu to Gorkha. It takes about 4/5 hours to reach the historical town of Gorkha. We will check in at a hotel, have lunch and begin our excursion to Gorkha Palace.

Gorkha Durbar/Palace is of historical and religious significance in Nepal. King Prithvi Narayan Shah, who unified small kingdoms into a whole Nepal, was born at this palace and started the unification campaign from here itself. Only remains of the palace exist to this day, and people still visit to worship at s Hindu Temple present in the palace.

After breakfast at the hotel in Gorkha, we take a 2-hour drive to Bandipur. The model Newari town of Bandipur is packed with abundant hotels in traditional Newari architecture, amazing views of the Himalayas, Hindu temples, and beautifully decorated streets to enjoy a calm and slow-paced village life. You can even go cycling or hiking around the town.

A delicious breakfast at a cozy hotel in Bandipur is followed by a quick 3-hour drive to Pokhara on the 5th day of your 9 Days Nepal Tour. You'll check into a hotel in the Lakeside, Pokhara, and the rest of the day is for you to enjoy.

The lake city of Pokhara lies at the bank of Phewa Lake and offers a beautiful mountain view of the Machhapuchre and Annapurna range on a clear day. Take a walk along the lake, go boating, or spend the day relaxing at a lakeside restaurant with some drinks. It is totally upon you. You can also rent a bicycle and stroll around the city.

We have an early start today as we drive early morning to Sarangkot, a hilltop known for gorgeous sunrises, to witness a mesmerizing mountain sunrise lighting the Annapurna range in an orange hue. We, then have breakfast at a restaurant in Sarangkot and begin our 3-hour hike to Naudanda. A drive back from Naudanda to Pokhara concludes your tour itinerary for the day.

The rest of the day is for you to explore or enjoy. We suggest you visit Begnas Lake during sunset. It is a hidden gem of Pokhara, about half an hour's drive from Lakeside, and is unknown to many tourists. It is smaller than Phewa Lake but much more peaceful and calm. You can as well swim in the lake.

After breakfast at your hotel in Pokhara, we take a boat ride across the lake and begin our 30-45 minutes hike to World Peach Stupa at a hilltop. The bird-eye view of Phewa Lake, the city, and the mountains on the horizon from the top make up for the tiring uphill hike. The spiritual atmosphere of the stupa is a cherry on top.

You, then, hike back from the other side of the hill to Devi's fall. We take you to Gupteshwor Mahadev Cave before returning to your hotel. After a quick rest, you can go out and enjoy your last evening in Pokhara.

Following your last breakfast in Pokhara, we take you back to Kathmandu on a tourist bus that takes around 6-7 hours. After your arrival in Kathmandu, you will be taken to your hotel in Thamel, and the rest of the day is yours to enjoy.

As this is your last night in Kathmandu, you can shop for souvenirs to take home. In the evening, we invite you to join us for your farewell dinner.

Your final vacation day ends with us dropping you off at Kathmandu International Airport in time for your departure back home or to the next destination. We hope you liked the exciting activities we provided to experience Nepal’s natural and cultural beauty.

We're hopeful you'll treasure the memories of your all-inclusive vacation and go home with tales to tell about your incredible adventures in the breathtaking Himalayan nation of Nepal. We're excited to see you back in Nepal. Travel safely.
