Itinerary
Fly to Kathmandu
Kathmandu, Nepal
Arrive into Kathmandu where the smell of spices, the cacophony of noises and the array of colours will assault the senses. Here you will spend the next couple of days exploring the temples, stupas and gates of the capital from the beautiful oasis of the Inn at Patan, a stones throw from Patan’s Durbar Square. Enjoy private tours to Boudhanath, Swayambunath and Pashupatinath, before a day trip to Bhaktapur, also known as the city of temples, where you will get lost in endless places of worship of every shape and size. On your return why not stop at one of Nepal’s endless breath-taking panoramic viewpoints for a sunset chai.
Accommodation: The Inn Patan ( 3 nights )
Bardia National Park, Nepal
Fly alongside the Himalayas to Nepalgunj, then drive the short distance to Bardia National Park for four days of safari activities in the jungle, river and grassland. You will be whisked off for game drives, drift along rivers and enjoy long evenings in your charming Tiger Tops Karnali lodge after adrenalin filled days of tracking the illusive Nepalese animals that call this national park home. You will also have a chance to visit the elephant stables and embark on walking safaris with some of the best guides in Nepal.
Accommodation: Tiger Tops Karnali Lodge ( 3 nights )
Pokhara, Nepal
Today fly to Pokhara via Kathmandu, this idyllic lake side town boasts stunning views of the snow-capped mountains, a beautiful peace pagoda to hike up to and bobbing boats for you to row to one of the lake’s island temples. You will be based at the beautiful Tiger Mountain Lodge, adding in a nice change of pace between your two wildlife experiences. Wake up to spectacular views of Machhapuchhare and the surrounding Annapurna range and venture out for walks at your leisure around the local villages and farmland.
Accommodation: Tiger Mountain Pokhara Lodge ( 2 nights )
Chitwan National Park, Nepal
From Pokhara drive though the rural country to Chitwan National Park which will take approximately 5 hours. On arrival at Meghauli Serai you have the chance to settle in and enjoy a locally produce dinner, sourced from the property's organic garden.
Over the next couple of days you will have the chance to get into the safari lifestyle, enjoying river safaris, beautiful al-fresco meals, walking and jeep safaris. Chitwan is truly beautiful and though the chance of catching sight of land mammals is harder, making it more rewarding when you do, you will still be blown away by the stunning morning light and hazy sunsets as well as the endless birds that will keep you enthralled for days.
Kathmandu, Nepal
Fly back into Kathmandu for some last-minute shopping and a final night banquet, before heading back home in the morning.
Accommodation: Dwarika's ( 1 night )
