The Kathmandu Valley
Kathmandu you'll visit several contrasting sites within the ancient city: Swayumbunath - a revered Buddhist site on a hilltop overlooking the city; Pashupatinath - a Hindu shrine dedicated to the God Shiva; and Durbar Square, where narrow streets converge on numerous pagoda-like temples.
Pokhara and Annapurna Foothills
Flying to Pokhara in the shadow of the mighty Himalayas,
you'll take a boat trip on the delightful Phewa Lake. Over the next three days you'll have the choice of taking short walks in the countryside around Pokhara, or joining a classic Himalayan tented trek. Whichever option you choose, there's plenty of time to walk at your own pace and enjoy the magnificent mountain views.
Bandipur and Chitwan
Pausing at the traditional hill-village of Bandipur unknown even to many
old Nepal hands you've time to relax or explore on foot. In Chitwan National Park you'll use a variety of transport to go on safari in search of the area's wonderful wildlife, some of it unique, like the endangered onehorned Indian rhino! A short flight back to Kathmandu allows time to explore Patan, one of the valley's ancient cities, and to wander the many atmospheric bazaars in search of souvenirs.
