Read the full journey overview

Nepal Adventure Tour starts with a visit to the UNESCO World Heritage Sites of Pashupatinath Temple, Boudhanath Stupa, and Bhaktapur Durbar Square. The temple was established prior to 400 A.D., the stupa is one of the largest stupas in the world and the durbar square exhibits spectacular Newari Architecture, which is seen by a high number of tourists every year. After acquainting with the UNESCO World Heritage Sites through your city guide, you go rafting in the Trishuli River, one of the wildest rivers of Nepal, whose water is green, whose rapids are enormous, and whose course snakes through lush valleys and sandy beaches. After enjoying the waters of the Trishuli River like an adventurer, you head off to Chitwan National Park, another famous UNESCO World Heritage Site of Nepal. The national park is home to several species of mammals and birds, including the endangered one-horned rhino and Royal Bengal Tiger. Enjoy a jeep safari, watch birds, take a jungle walk, and look at Gharial or marsh muggers from a distance. After all the excitement at the wildlife park, the Nepal adventure tour includes Pokhara, the ‘City of Lakes, and the second largest city of Nepal. The city abounds in natural attractions, namely Seti River Gorge, Davis Falls, GupteshoreMahadev Cave, Phewa Lake, Barahi Temple, Tibetan Refugee Camp, and museums. Besides these, Pokhara has the best viewpoint to see the sunrise and sunset over the snowcapped mountains, such as Annapurna, Dhaulagiri, and Machhapuchre. Finally, the Nepal adventure tour concludes with an adrenaline-pumping mountain bike around Kathmandu Valley.
