The long way round: Nagarkot sunrise, a Ghandruk village night and Muktinath via Jomsom and Marpha.

Overview

Complete Nepal tour: overview

Quick answer

The complete Nepal tour package is an 8 nights / 9 days trip covering Kathmandu, Bhaktapur, Nagarkot, Pokhara, Ghandruk, Jomsom, Muktinath, Pokhara, starting from Gorakhpur (via Sonauli). Travellers who fly can start in Kathmandu. It suits travellers with time; mixed sightseeing and yatra. The best time for complete Nepal is March–May, late September–November. Prices are on request with a free written quote.

This is our longest single-country plan: eight nights that cover the Kathmandu valley, a sunrise at Nagarkot, the lakes of Pokhara, a night in the Gurung village of Ghandruk and the Muktinath shrine in Mustang. It suits travellers who have the time to see Nepal properly, once.

The route climbs gradually, from Kathmandu at 1,400 m to Ghandruk at about 2,000 m and Muktinath at 3,710 m, which helps with acclimatisation. Jeep sections in the Kali Gandaki valley are rough; the alternative is the Jomsom flight from Pokhara.

This full Nepal itinerary adds what shorter trips skip: a Nagarkot sunrise, a night in Ghandruk village and the Muktinath shrine.

Tour highlights

  • Kathmandu, Bhaktapur and Nagarkot sunrise
