Trip highlights

Kathmandu has a rich culture and a huge historical heritages: visit Pashupatinath temple, the huge Buddhist stupa at Boudhanath and the Monkey temple in Swayambhunath. Finally, enjoy Durbar square and explore the small streets of Patan and Bhaktapur.

This is a short trip that lets you explore ancient temples and religious shrines of the three medieval kingdoms: Kathmandu, Bhaktapur and Patan. In Kathmandu, the capital city of Nepal, you will be taken for a visit to the holiest Hindu shrine in Nepal, “Pashupatinath”.  Pashupatinath temple is dedicated to Lord Shiva known as the guardian (patron) deity of the Hindus. As you approach cremation areas of the temple, you will witness Hindu’s ritual of cremating a corpse. Tour the neighboring Buddhist stupa of Boudhanath which located at the core of the Tibetan exile community and Monkey temple Swayambhunath another Buddhist site.

Another attractive highlight of this trip is the cultural tour in Bhaktapur and Patan. Bhaktapur offers a quieter, more contemplative version of Durbar square in a city that has not lost its charm. Patan offers some of the best shopping in the area, allowing you to bargain for beautiful traditional Nepali, Newari and Tibetan handicrafts. High Himalayan Trekking and Expedition will design an itinerary and program for Kathmandu City Tour according to an individual clients’ interest throughout the year.

All our trips are tailor made trips with personalized services. Please let us know the number of participants in your group, your choice of hotels and amendments in our itinerary, if any, so that we can quote you the price.
