Posted on by Merhaba Kailash Adventure

If you’re looking for a trip that combines culture, nature, adventure, and a bit of quiet time, this 10-day tour across Nepal might be just what you need. It’s a mix of everything—bustling cities, peaceful hills, jungle safaris, and small village life. You’ll get to explore different sides of Nepal, all in one well-paced journey.

The trip begins in Kathmandu, where ancient temples sit alongside busy streets, and every corner seems to tell a story. You’ll have time to walk through areas like Thamel, try local cuisine, or soak in the blend of tradition and daily life.

From there, you’ll drive down to Chitwan, which has a very different vibe—calmer, greener, and full of wildlife. You’ll go canoeing on the Rapti River, take a walk through the jungle, and head out on a jeep safari. You might spot rhinos, crocodiles, deer, and with some luck, even a tiger. In the evening, there’s a chance to enjoy a traditional Tharu dance and try some of their simple yet tasty food.

Next is Bandipur, a quiet hilltop town with narrow stone streets and fantastic mountain views. It’s the kind of place where you don’t need to do much—walk around, enjoy the atmosphere, and take it slow. After that, you’ll head to Pokhara, a lakeside city that’s peaceful but full of things to see. Think sunrise from Sarangkot, a boat ride on Fewa Lake, and visits to places like Davis Falls, Bat Cave, and the World Peace Pagoda.

After spending time in the city, you’ll head into the hills with short hikes to Dhampus and Astam. These are small villages surrounded by terraced fields and mountain views. The walks aren’t too tricky, and the scenery is worth every step. You’ll get to stay in local guesthouses, talk with villagers, and enjoy quiet evenings with views of Annapurna and Machhapuchhre in the distance.

The trip ends back in Kathmandu, giving you a final day to relax, do some last-minute exploring, or grab a few souvenirs before heading home.

This tour isn’t rushed. It gives you time to enjoy each place without feeling like you’re constantly on the move. Whether you’re into culture, nature, or want a change of pace, it’s a great way to experience different sides of Nepal—at a pace that feels just right.
