Discover Nepal's hilly scenery without traveling far from the capital during a leisurely hiking tour that includes an early morning arrival in Nagarkot to see the sunrise. Watch the Himalayas catch the morning light, then hike down to UNESCO-listed Changu Narayan. Pass small villages along the way, and stop to purchase food at small restaurants for an authentic local experience. Includes round-trip transport in a private vehicle from Kathmandu.

Adventure-seeking travelers who don’t have time to go deep into the Nepali wilderness will love white-water rafting on the Trishuli or the Bhote Koshi rivers, just a few hours’ drive from Kathmandu. The easy-to-moderate rapids are suitable for beginners, and the waterflow makes rafting possible in most seasons. Receive a thorough safety briefing before starting, and all the gear you need. Hotel pickup from Kathmandu adds convenience to your adventure.

See the majestic Himalayan mountains, including Mt. Everest, on a private full-day tour from Kathmandu. There’s no need to catch uncomfortable public buses as round-trip transportation from the capital is included. After admiring the views from Nagarkot, hike downhill for a few hours through the Himalayan foothills and farmland, visiting villages and the UNESCO World Heritage–listed Changu Narayan temple. Your guide ensures you don’t get lost and answers questions.

Spend a luxurious day in Kathmandu with an Ayurvedic massage and herbal steambath, followed by the sensations of Shirodhara, or an ancient oil treatment related to Panchakarma. During the day you’ll also have a one hour yoga class taught in English to enjoy. To keep you sustained, a delicious, healthy yogic and ayurvedic lunch will also be provided.
