Firstly, our journey commences from Kathmandu, Asia’s cultural and natural center. Furthermore, as we stroll along the cobbled streets of an ancient palace, we relive the history of Nepal. Also called the “City of Temples,” Kathmandu. Secondly, as we take a flight to Pokhara, you will be thrilled by the endless stretch of Himalayan peaks covered in crystal-white snow. This so-called city of the lakes is another canvas for Mother Nature.
Our second destination, Tibet, boasts unrivaled natural scenery and cultural enjoyment. This land of historical religion is the most legendarily beautiful Himalayan destination on the planet. The city of Lhasa is full of architectural heritage that takes more than a day’s visit. Exciting destinations such as Potala Palace, Drepung monastery, Jokhang Temple, Sera monastery, Barkhor market, etc., are to be explored. Leaving the beautiful valley of Lhasa, we move to Gyantse and Shigatse.this tour takes you further to the core of the Himalayan region- you will be standing at the base of the world’s tallest mountain.
Finally, we move to explore the tiny Himalayan Kingdom of Thunder Dragon. Bhutan is one of the world’s little-known treasures. The country also maintains its unique culture, traditions, and individuality, focusing on preserving its deep Buddhist traditions and pristine landscapes. Bhutan’s unique journey to ancient monasteries, glacial rivers, Himalayan peaks, and peaceful villages will leave you with great emotion.
Travelers have been permitted to explore the wonders of Bhutan since 1974; however, to date, the nation ensures the protocol of a sustainable approach to tourism. Foreign visitors must pay a daily Tax of 200 USD and use a local tour operator for an additional 200-250 USD. This means Bhutan’s daily expenses start from around 400 – 450 USD.( this cost contributes to the local economy, such as health and education). We will have a wonderfully authentic and exciting travel experience during Bhutan’s stay.
Tibet is one of the most popular locations in South Asia for modern tourism, and despite having to be on an organized tour of the region, hundreds of thousands of travelers from around the world make the journey up to the high plateau every year. And those numbers are constantly increasing. One of the most beautiful places in the world, Tibet is a land of high mountains, crystal-clear lakes, ancient monasteries with devout Buddhist monks, and one of the most unique cultures on the planet.
Nepal, a major Hindu country in Asia, is the home of the best trekking in the world. With eight of the 14 highest mountains in the world lying along its northern region, on the borderline with China’s Tibet Autonomous Region, there is little in the world that can match the stunning beauty and awesome experience of trekking in Nepal. Nepal is also the recognized birthplace of Buddha, known as the Gautama Buddha or Sakyamuni Buddha, and while the main religion is Hindu, there are many features of Tibetan Buddhism that are prevalent in the scriptures, ceremonies, and beliefs of Nepali Hinduism that make it the most unique version of Hinduism in the world.
Bhutan is one of the most exclusive destinations in Asia, with a unique tourism policy that is designed to protect its unspoiled environment and preserve the culture of this ancient Himalayan Kingdom. A devout Buddhist country, the kingdom has a huge number of monasteries, the most spectacular being the Taktsang Monastery, located halfway up a cliff overlooking the Paro Valley.
