Himalayan Explorer
Kathmandu and Annapurna Trek
The Kathmandu Valley is a fascinating area full of contrasts. Exploring by bike (or vehicle if you wish) you'll visit Durbar Square with its concentration of royal and religious architecture, and the sacred temples of Swayambhunath and Pashupatinath. You'll spend a night in the one-time capital of Bhaktapur before travelling west to reach the lake-side town of Pokhara. From here you'll enjoy your porter-assisted trek into the foothills - a relatively easy Himalayan walk, ideal for the first-time trekker.
Elephant-back Safari
Heading south from Pokhara, you enter the steamy, low-lying jungle. In Chitwan National Park you'll travel by elephant, canoe and on foot in search of wildlife. You should see a variety of birds, spotted deer, rhino and perhaps even tiger! Returning to Kathmandu there is time to explore the winding streets, bazaars and temples of this fascinating medieval city.
