Day-by-day journey
Arrival in Kathmandu and Sightseeing
Arrive at Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu.
Meet the representative and transfer to your hotel for check-in.
After freshening up, begin Kathmandu sightseeing.
Visit Pashupatinath Temple, a major Hindu pilgrimage site dedicated to Lord Shiva.
Explore Boudhanath Stupa, one of the most important Buddhist landmarks in Kathmandu.
Visit Swayambhunath, popularly known as the Monkey Temple, for panoramic city views.
Explore Durbar Square and its historic architecture.
Spend the evening exploring Thamel and local markets.
Overnight stay in Kathmandu.
The first day introduces you to Nepal’s religious and cultural heritage. Depending on your arrival time, the sightseeing order may change. Nevertheless, the major Kathmandu attractions remain the focus of the day.
Kathmandu to Pokhara Transfer and Sightseeing
Have breakfast at the hotel.
Travel from Kathmandu to Pokhara by road, normally taking around 6–7 hours depending on traffic and road conditions.
A domestic flight option can also be considered where available.
Stop at Manakamana Temple during the road journey and use the cable car for the temple visit if desired.

Visit Phewa Lake and enjoy an optional boat ride.
Visit Tal Barahi Temple located on the lake.
Explore Devi’s Fall and Gupteshwar Mahadev Cave.
Spend free time around Lakeside Market.
Overnight stay in Pokhara.
Pokhara changes the pace of the journey. Instead of busy heritage streets, you will find a relaxed lakeside setting surrounded by hills and Himalayan landscapes. Consequently, this part of the Nepal tour package is ideal for travellers who want both sightseeing and leisure.
Pokhara to Chitwan Transfer and Jungle Experience
Wake up early and drive to Sarangkot for sunrise and Himalayan views.
Return to the hotel for breakfast.
Drive from Pokhara to Chitwan National Park, generally taking around 4–5 hours.
Check in at the hotel and relax.
Attend a Tharu cultural dance program in the evening.
Enjoy the surrounding nature and sunset views where conditions permit.
Overnight stay in Chitwan.
Chitwan provides a contrasting experience after Pokhara. Here, the focus shifts from mountain scenery to forests, rivers, wildlife and local culture. Therefore, the destination adds variety to this 5-day Nepal tour rather than repeating the experiences of Kathmandu and Pokhara.
Chitwan Jungle Safari and Return to Kathmandu
Start the morning with a jungle activity such as a Jeep safari, subject to availability and local operating conditions.
Enjoy a canoe ride on the Rapti River where available.
Visit the Elephant Breeding Center when open and included in the selected activity plan.

Have lunch and begin the drive back to Kathmandu.
The return journey normally takes around 5–6 hours depending on traffic and road conditions.
Check in at the Kathmandu hotel after arrival.
Overnight stay in Kathmandu.
Wildlife activities depend on local regulations, weather and park operating conditions. For that reason, the exact activity sequence can change while keeping the overall Chitwan experience intact.
Kathmandu Departure
Enjoy breakfast at the hotel.
Use free time for shopping or a relaxed walk around Thamel, depending on your flight schedule.
Check out from the hotel.
Transfer to Tribhuvan International Airport for your onward journey.
Your Nepal tour package from Kathmandu ends with an airport transfer. If your departure is later in the day, the available free time can be used for shopping, local food or last-minute sightseeing.
