The Best of Nepal

Fascinating Nepal offers incredible cultural, scenic, wildlife and outdoor experiences. With a spectacular location in the Himalayas, it combines well with nearby India, Bhutan, Tibet, China and Thailand.

Our private Nepal tours feature the best of the country: exploring atmospheric backstreets, palaces and temples in Kathmandu and the Kathmandu Valley; taking wildlife safaris in Chitwan National Park; seeing Mount Everest and the high peaks of the Himalayas; and enjoying incredible food, shopping and cultural experiences.

We hope you enjoy this slideshow from our recent Nepal tour.

Our travelers—including this family that recently visited Nepal with us—rave about our Nepal tours:

Everything was extremely smooth in Nepal. From the minute we set foot in the airport, our guide took care of our needs in a polite and professional manner. Our sightseeing around the area was planned perfectly. We loved the henna lesson that you arranged – the artist was extremely talented and quick. It was a highlight of the trip for my daughter. The private yoga lesson was also a huge hit, and the instructor worked with the kids wonderfully. We most loved watching the Nepalese people going about their everyday rituals. All in all, it was a superb experience for our family. Thank you for making our adventure to Nepal a success.
