An open-air sanctuary
For anyone seeking inner truth, Nepal is an open-air sanctuary. Hinduism and Buddhism share the same valley, and in every alley there's a temple, a spinning prayer wheel, or a lamp lit by someone who passed by just before you.
From fire ceremonies to the quiet walkways of the monasteries, Nepal takes the traveler on a journey inward, all the way to sunrise before the Himalaya, when Everest and Annapurna appear on the horizon.
Sunrise before the Himalaya
In Nagarkot, high in the hills east of Kathmandu, we wake before the sun. Little by little, the light touches the eternal peaks of the range one by one, and on a clear day Everest appears in the distance.
Later, in Pokhara, Phewa Lake mirrors Annapurna, and the town invites silence, contemplation and inner reflection.
From the Kathmandu Valley to the foot of the Himalaya
You'll receive the day-by-day itinerary, with hotels and group dates, in our WhatsApp conversation.
Temples, palaces and the eyes of the Buddha
Nepal's capital sits in a valley ringed by mountains. Some of the most sacred sites in Hinduism and Buddhism are here, just minutes from one another.
- Durbar Square, with its ancient temples and palaces
- Swayambhunath, the hilltop stupa known as the Monkey Temple
- Boudhanath, one of the largest Buddhist stupas on the planet
- Pashupatinath, one of the most sacred temples in Hinduism
The city of fine arts
Also known as Lalitpur, Patan is a maze of narrow streets with a remarkable number of Hindu temples, Buddhist monasteries and preserved monuments.
- The stone Krishna Temple, in the shikhara style
- Hiranya Varna Mahavihar, the Golden Temple
- Patan Durbar Square, seen from above
Where the Middle Ages still walk the streets
Monks fill the city of devotees, which preserves the cobblestone streets and red-brick houses of its medieval past. Nearby, on a hilltop, stands one of the oldest temples in Nepal.
- The five-tiered Nyatapola Temple
- The 15th-century palace and its 55 carved windows
- Changunarayan, a jewel of pagoda architecture, famous for its wood and stone carvings

Nepal can also be the continuation of a journey through India, from Ayurveda in Kerala to the Ganges, and from there to the Himalaya. In our conversation, I'll walk you through both ways to travel.
Before you leave for Nepal
Do I need a visa?
Yes. U.S. citizens can get a tourist visa on arrival in Nepal, and we guide you through every step during preparation, along with your passport, insurance and vaccines.
Is altitude a concern?
Not on this itinerary. Kathmandu sits at about 4,300 feet and Pokhara at under 3,300. The great peaks are seen from lookouts, with no high-altitude trekking.
Do I need to be in good shape?
The pace is easygoing. Some temples have stairways, and there are light walks through the old cities, always at the group's pace.
Can I combine Nepal with India?
Yes. Many travelers continue from India to Nepal on the same trip. In our conversation, I'll explain how the two journeys fit together.
A travel companion who has been there and back
What moves me is what unites humanity. In Nepal, you see it in the monk's prayer at dawn, in the prayer wheel each person turns as they pass, and in the peaceful coexistence of Hinduism and Buddhism, side by side, for centuries.
Those are the encounters I take you to, with time, respect and attention, so the journey also becomes a chance to rediscover your own essence.
Nepal is one of six journeys. India, Bhutan, China, Peru and Egypt are waiting too.
