Trip to Kathmandu and Nagarkot
Per Person on twin sharing basis
Kathmandu, the vibrant gateway to Nepal’s soul, beckons with its ancient charm. Nestled in the heart of the city's labyrinthine alleys is the majestic Durbar Square, a 1627 gem where the Indra Jatra festival transforms into a kaleidoscope of masked dances and joyous revelry. Established in the 2nd century AD, Nepal stands as one of the world's oldest living legacies, where history and culture dance through time.
Perched on the northern edge of the Kathmandu Valley, Nagarkot is a rustic haven draped in lush pine forests. This hilltop gem serves up a front-row seat to the Himalayas, where every sunrise and sunset paints the sky with breathtaking hues. It’s a serene escape, where the mountain panorama and tranquil vibes offer a perfect retreat into nature's embrace.
