Pashupatinath and Boudhanath Spiritual Tour

This half-day spiritual tour visits Nepal’s two most sacred religious sites — Pashupatinath Temple, the holiest Hindu shrine in the country, and Boudhanath Stupa, one of the most important Buddhist pilgrimage sites in Asia. They sit just a few kilometres apart in Kathmandu, and together they represent the extraordinary religious harmony that defines Nepal.

At Pashupatinath, you walk along the Bagmati River ghats where cremation ceremonies take place daily, observe the sadhus and priests, and learn about the Shaivite Hindu traditions that center on this ancient temple. At Boudhanath, you join the circumambulation of the great stupa, visit surrounding monasteries, and experience the Tibetan Buddhist community that has made this area a living centre of practice since the Tibetan diaspora.

Pokhara Adventure Day

Pokhara is Nepal’s adventure capital — and the Pokhara Adventure Day packs the best of it into a single day. The centrepiece is tandem paragliding from Sarangkot, flying over Phewa Lake with the Annapurna range as your backdrop — one of the most scenic paragliding experiences in the world. No experience needed; you fly with a certified instructor.

Beyond paragliding, Pokhara offers zip-lining, bungee jumping, ultra-light flights, and zip-line swings. You can combine multiple activities in one day or focus on the one that calls to you. All operators we work with are certified, insured, and experienced with first-time participants.

Community Impact

Adventure operators in Pokhara employ local pilots, instructors, and ground crew. Your activity supports the local adventure tourism industry that has become a significant employer in the Pokhara region.

Kirtipur Heritage Day Tour

Kirtipur is the Kathmandu Valley’s most authentic Newari hilltop town — a fortress settlement that resisted the Gorkha conquest longer than any other city in the valley. Today, its medieval streets, temples, and traditional houses remain largely intact, and the town receives a fraction of the tourists that flood nearby Bhaktapur. A day in Kirtipur feels like stepping back centuries while being just 5km from central Kathmandu.

The hilltop location offers panoramic views of the entire valley and the Himalayan range beyond. The Bagh Bhairab Temple (dedicated to the tiger god) and the Chilancho Stupa are architectural highlights, but the real pleasure is simply walking the narrow lanes, watching weavers at work, and sitting down for samay baji — the traditional Newari feast plate — at a local restaurant.

Chitwan Safari Day Tour

The Chitwan Safari Day Tour packs the essential Chitwan experience into a single day — a jeep safari through the national park, a canoe ride on the Rapti River, and a visit to a Tharu village. While a multi-day stay is ideal, this day tour gives travellers with limited time a genuine taste of Nepal’s premier wildlife destination.

The morning jeep safari covers grassland and forest habitats where one-horned rhinoceros, spotted deer, langur monkeys, and numerous bird species are commonly sighted. The canoe ride floats past basking mugger and gharial crocodiles. A village visit introduces you to the Tharu community — the indigenous people of the Terai lowlands.

Pokhara Peace Pagoda Day Tour

The World Peace Pagoda sits on a forested ridge above Pokhara, offering one of the most spectacular panoramas in Nepal — Phewa Lake, the city of Pokhara, and the entire Annapurna range spread before you. The Pokhara Peace Pagoda Day Tour combines a boat ride across Phewa Lake with a short forest hike to reach this Japanese-built Buddhist stupa, where the view and the peaceful atmosphere make for an unforgettable half-day experience.

The pagoda was built by the Nipponzan Myohoji Buddhist order as one of 80 Peace Pagodas worldwide, and the serene environment lives up to its mission. You can meditate at the stupa, walk the grounds, and simply absorb one of the finest views in Pokhara before descending by a different route for variety.

Pokhara Food Tour

The Pokhara Food Tour takes you away from the lakeside tourist restaurants and into the local food scene — the street vendors, family kitchens, and small eateries where Pokhara’s residents actually eat. Over 5-6 stops, you taste the regional cuisines that make Pokhara a crossroads of Nepali food culture: Gurung dishes from the hills, Thakali specialties from the Kali Gandaki valley, and Newari treats from the Kathmandu Valley settlers who brought their culinary traditions westward.

Your food guide is a local who knows where to find the best sel roti at the morning market, which family makes the finest dhido, and the bakery that produces bread using recipes brought by Tibetan refugees decades ago. The walk covers markets and food streets that most visitors never discover.

Community Impact

Every stop is a local family business. Your visit supports small food operators who represent the authentic food culture of the Pokhara region.

Nepali Cooking Class

The Nepali Cooking Class starts at a local market where you shop for ingredients with your instructor — fresh spices, vegetables, and the specific ingredients that make Nepali cuisine distinct from Indian food. Then you move to a home kitchen where you learn to prepare the dishes that define Nepal: dal bhat (the national meal of lentil soup, rice, vegetables, and pickles), momos (steamed dumplings), sel roti (sweet rice bread), and seasonal specialties.

Classes are hands-on — you chop, grind, fry, and steam alongside your instructor, who explains the techniques, the ingredients, and the cultural significance of each dish. At the end, you sit down to eat the meal you prepared. Recipe cards ensure you can recreate the dishes at home.

Community Impact

Cooking classes are hosted by local families who earn directly from teaching their culinary skills. Market visits support local vendors. Your class supports women and families who are turning their cooking expertise into tourism livelihoods.

Thangka Painting Workshop

Thangka painting is the sacred Buddhist art of painting deities, mandalas, and Buddhist iconography on cloth — a tradition that has been practiced in the Kathmandu Valley for over a thousand years. In this hands-on workshop, you work with a master Thangka artist in their Kathmandu studio, learning the techniques, iconography, and spiritual significance of this intricate art form.

The workshop begins with an introduction to Thangka symbolism — what the deities represent, why specific colours are used, and how the proportional grid system governs every figure. Then you create your own small Thangka painting using traditional materials, guided step by step by the master artist. You take your completed work home as a meaningful souvenir of your time in Nepal.

Community Impact

Thangka painting is a living art tradition sustained by master artists who have trained for years under senior painters. Your workshop fee directly supports these artists and helps maintain a craft tradition that is central to Nepal’s Buddhist heritage.

Nepal Village Walk and Farm Experience

The Nepal Village Walk and Farm Experience takes you out of Kathmandu and into the farming communities that surround the valley — walking through terraced fields, visiting working farms, and meeting the families whose labour feeds Nepal. Depending on the season, you may plant rice seedlings, harvest mustard, thresh wheat, or pick vegetables alongside your hosts.

The experience includes an organic lunch prepared with produce from the farm you visit — dal bhat, seasonal vegetables, pickles, and rice grown in the fields you just walked through. This is not a demonstration farm; it is a real working family farm where your visit and interest provide both income and validation for families who are exploring agri-tourism.

Community Impact

Farm visits provide direct income to farming families and help them see their agricultural knowledge as an asset. Village walks support community guides who earn from sharing their neighborhoods with visitors.

Yoga and Meditation Day Experience

Nepal is the birthplace of the Buddha and the spiritual crossroads of Hindu and Buddhist traditions — a place where yoga and meditation have been practiced for millennia. The Yoga and Meditation Day Experience offers a half-day or full-day practice at a peaceful retreat centre, guided by an experienced local instructor who draws on authentic tradition rather than commercial yoga industry trends.

The session includes asana practice, pranayama breathing techniques, and guided meditation, adapted to your level and experience. The setting — a mountain-view retreat centre in the Kathmandu Valley or Pokhara lakeside — provides the atmosphere that makes practicing in Nepal qualitatively different from practicing at home.

Community Impact

Yoga and meditation instructors are local practitioners who have trained in Nepal’s authentic spiritual traditions. Your session supports their livelihood and the retreat centres that provide a space for practice.
