Top Nepal Private Sightseeing Tours

While plenty of visitors to Nepal head to the mountains for trekking, you can experience the fun of hiking in the Nepalese hills without having to stray far from the capital thanks to this tour. Meet your private guide before dawn at your Kathmandu hotel and head to Nagarkot in time for sunrise. Then enjoy a hike suited to your party's needs and interests before returning to the city.

Makalu Base Camp trek is one of the most special and raw trekking experiences you can have in Nepal. Unlike the busy trails of Everest or Annapurna, this route takes you deep into a remote part of the Himalayas where nature is untouched and peaceful. The journey goes through the heart of Makalu-Barun National Park, from lush green forests and waterfalls to high alpine valleys and glaciers. You’ll get to see rare and breathtaking views of Mt. Makalu, the fifth highest mountain in the world, along with Everest, Lhotse, and Baruntse from unique angles. The trail is rich in biodiversity, home to red pandas, Himalayan thars, colorful birds, and forests full of rhododendrons and medicinal plants. Along the way, you’ll also get to experience the simple and humble lifestyle of the local Rai, Sherpa, and Bhotiya communities, whose warm hospitality adds depth to the journey. With fewer trekkers on the trail, you’ll find a kind of silence and connection to nature that’s hard to get elsewhere.
