Your adventure begins with a warm welcome at Tribhuvan International Airport (TIA) by our representative from Best Trips Nepal. Look out for our friendly face holding a signboard with your name. After a brief introduction, you'll be whisked away to your hotel. Settle in, relax, and soak in the initial vibes of Kathmandu. In the evening, we’ll treat you to a traditional Nepalese dinner at a local restaurant, where you’ll enjoy authentic flavors and a lively cultural program. It is a perfect start to your journey. Stay overnight at a cozy hotel in Kathmandu.

After breakfast, get ready to dive into Kathmandu's rich history and culture. We’ll explore UNESCO World Heritage Sites, starting with the majestic Swayambhunath (Monkey Temple) perched atop a hill, offering a bird’s-eye view of the city. Next, we’ll visit Boudhanath, one of the largest stupas in Nepal, where the air is filled with the hum of Buddhist chants. Don’t miss the sacred Pashupatinath temple, a revered Hindu pilgrimage site by the Bagmati River. The day ends with a visit to the bustling Durbar Squares of Kathmandu, Bhaktapur, and Patan. Stay overnight at your hotel with time to reflect on your day.

After breakfast, we embarked on a scenic drive from Kathmandu to Pokhara. Enjoy the captivating landscapes, winding through picturesque valleys, rivers, and terraced hillsides. You’ll feel the shift in pace as we leave behind the city hustle and approach the peaceful aura of Pokhara, Nepal’s adventure capital. If you prefer, there’s also an option to fly to Pokhara (a quick 30-minute flight) for a bird's-eye view of the mighty Himalayas. After checking into your hotel, take the afternoon to stroll by Phewa Lake or enjoy a peaceful boat ride. Stay overnight at a lakeside hotel.

This is where the real adventure begins! After a 1.5-hour drive to Nayapul, we hit the trail. The trek starts gently, winding through charming villages, terraced fields of rice and millet, and lively riverside pathways. We’ll pass by small waterfalls as we make our way to Sudami, and soon after, reach Hile. Depending on your energy levels, we can either stop at Tikhedhunga or tackle the famous 3,000 stone steps leading to Ulleri. The sense of accomplishment and the beautiful surroundings will make the climb worth every step! Stay overnight at a guesthouse.

Today’s trek is magical as we venture from Ulleri to Ghorepani. The trail takes us through dense oak and rhododendron forests, especially vibrant in spring when the flowers are in full bloom. The views open up as we ascend, revealing glimpses of snow-capped peaks. After trekking for around 5 hours, we’ll arrive in Ghorepani, a famous stopover for trekkers in the Annapurna region. Stay overnight at a cozy guesthouse where the mountain air feels refreshing.

Wake up early for one of the trek’s most unforgettable experiences—sunrise at Poon Hill (3,195m). A short, predawn climb rewards you with panoramic views of the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri ranges as the sun rises, painting the peaks in warm, golden hues. After soaking in the views and snapping some photos, we descend to Ghorepani and continue our journey to Tatopani. After a 7-hour trek, you can relax your muscles in the natural hot springs at Tatopani—a perfect way to unwind after a day on the trail. Stay overnight at a guesthouse.

After a refreshing night’s rest, we trek to Ghasa, a quiet village nestled between towering peaks. The trail takes about 6 hours, winding through scenic landscapes, charming settlements, and lush greenery. You’ll start to notice the landscape changing, with more open views of the Kali Gandaki valley and the high Himalayan peaks in the Jomsom Trek distance. Stay overnight at a guesthouse in Ghasa, where the air is crisp and the stars shine bright.

Today’s trial is rich with history, taking us through an old trading route once used by Tibetan merchants. After breakfast in Ghasa, we head towards Tukuche, passing through forests and along the banks of the Kali Gandaki River. The views of Dhaulagiri and Annapurna are spectacular, especially as we approach the wide, open valley of Tukuche. The village itself has a rich history, and you’ll feel its charm as you walk through narrow streets and past stone-built houses. Stay overnight at a guesthouse.

After leaving Tukuche, the landscape becomes more arid and desert-like as we approach Jomsom, the gateway to the Mustang region. The trail winds through apple orchards and traditional Tibetan-style villages. You’ll also pass through Marpha, famous for its apple orchards and local brandy. By afternoon, the strong winds pick up in the valley, making the last stretch to Jomsom feel more adventurous. Jomsom is a vibrant hub with a mix of trekkers, locals, and stunning views of Nilgiri and Tilicho Peak. Stay overnight at a guesthouse.

After an early morning flight, we leave the mountains behind and return to Pokhara. The 20-minute flight offers stunning aerial views of the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri ranges. Once back in Pokhara, you have the day to explore the city’s many attractions or simply relax by Phewa Lake. The laid-back vibe of Pokhara is a perfect contrast to the trekking days. Stay overnight at a lakeside hotel.

We bid farewell to Pokhara and drove back to Kathmandu, enjoying the scenic countryside once again. If you’d prefer, there’s an option to take a short flight instead of the road journey. Upon arrival in Kathmandu, you can relax and reflect on your trek or head out for some last-minute shopping in Thamel. Stay overnight at a hotel in Kathmandu.

Today is a free day, perfect for exploring anything you may have missed. Perhaps visit more UNESCO sites, stroll through the markets for souvenirs, or simply enjoy a relaxing day at your hotel. After the adventure-packed itinerary, this day is all about unwinding. Stay overnight at your hotel in Kathmandu.

After breakfast, it’s time to say goodbye to Nepal. Our representative will transfer you to the airport in time for your flight home. Take with you the unforgettable memories of the Himalayas, friendly locals, and the unique experiences from your trek. Safe travels!
