Description

Of course, a week is rarely enough to explore this mountainous country with the rich culture and customs of Nepal’s myriad people and their unswerving good humour as big a draw as the peaks themselves. Nepal’s culture is greatly influenced by its music, architecture, religion and literature. The first sight of Nepal might leave you speechless with its great quantities of temples, churches, monasteries and other religious buildings, the hurly-burly in the streets and the number of people. Join our one-week tour to Nepal to explore and understand its culture, heritage, monuments, natural wonders, and rare species of flora and fauna that make Nepal such a beautiful place and a popular destination.
