Itinerary
Arrive at Tribhuvan International Airport, Kathmandu. Clear immigration and baggage, meet our representative and transfer to your hotel in Kathmandu. The valley capital, where seven UNESCO monument zones stand within an hour of each other and the old city has not stopped being a working one. The rest of the day is free to settle in. Overnight in Kathmandu.
Breakfast at the hotel and check out. Leave for Manakamana — a 105 km drive and a ten-minute cable car up the ridge. A wish-fulfilling temple on a ridge above the Trishuli, reached by the oldest cable car in Nepal. Check in on arrival and, as the day allows, the Manakamana Devi temple and its morning puja. Overnight in Manakamana.
Breakfast at the hotel and check out. Leave for Gorkha — a cable car down and a 40 km, ninety-minute drive. The hill seat the Shah kings unified Nepal from, its durbar standing on a ridge above the town. Check in on arrival and, as the day allows, the Gorkha Durbar and the Gorakhnath cave shrine. Overnight in Gorkha.
Breakfast at the hotel and check out. Leave for Bandipur — a 50 km, ninety-minute drive. A preserved Newar trading town on a ridge above the Marsyangdi, with no traffic on its main street. Check in on arrival and, as the day allows, the Bandipur bazaar street and the Bindhyabasini temple. Overnight in Bandipur.
Breakfast at the hotel. A full day in Bandipur — the Siddha Gufa, one of the largest caves in Nepal; the Tundikhel viewpoint over the Himalaya; and the Bandipur bazaar street and the Bindhyabasini temple. The evening is free for dinner and a walk on your own. Overnight in Bandipur.
Breakfast at the hotel and check out. Time for any last shopping along Bandipur's pedestrian bazaar street before the drive down to Dumre and east on the Prithvi Highway, following the Marsyangdi and Trishuli rivers. You are transferred to Tribhuvan International Airport, Kathmandu, for the onward flight. The tour ends here, and we hope it is not your last visit to Nepal.
