Itinerary

After a few hours of rest in the hotel, the representative of HHA will meet you and describe the whole trip and how it will go. Interact with the Representatives and Guides so you become more prepared for the trip! However, if you arrive late at night, the meeting will be held the next day after the Kathmandu city Tour. At the meeting, we fulfill all remaining booking and payment processes as well. Hotel

After breakfast, we take you to four major world UNESCO heritage sites for sightseeing around Kathmandu Valley. Visit the Pashupatinath Temple, one of the holiest of all Hindu temples. Situated 5 kilometers east of Kathmandu, the temple of Lord Shiva-Pashupatinath, with its two-tiered golden roof and silver doors, is famous for its superb architecture. We can see the temple, the activities performed on the temple premises, and the cremation bank of the Bagmati River. Apart from Hindus, no one is allowed to enter the main temple, but we take a short walk by the bank of the Bagmati River, where one can observe the pilgrims and Hindu priests activities around the premises. This River is also a cremation site for Hindus. From here, we take a short drive that leads to Bouddhanath, northeast of the Pashupatinath area. The Stupa of Bouddhanath is 8 kilometers east of Kathmandu. This colossal and ancient stupa is one of the biggest in the world. This area is also known as ‘Little Tibet. After a visit here to observe the Tibetan Buddhist way of life, our tour continues towards the Patan area, which is situated to the south of Kathmandu and separated by a bridge over the River Bagmati. Patan Durbar Square (Patan) is also known as Lalitpur, which means the city of Arts and architecture. The old historical castle (Durbar), the tall terracotta house, and the Stone Temple of Krishna with the pillar of Garuda look fascinating. Garuda is the vehicle of Lord Vishnu as well as of Lord Krishna. After the historic visit, we drive short distances towards the end of the Patan area at the Tibetan Refugee Camp, where one can observe the happy and cheery workers weaving carpets. The Swayambhunath Stupa (Monkey Temple) has been in use since the 5th century and consists of a magnificent domed stupa as well as a variety of shrines and temples. Each temple is extremely ornate and richly decorated with gold and vibrant prayer flags, though it’s not only the spiritual décor that draws visitors. This sacred pilgrimage site is also home to hundreds of monkeys considered holy by Tibetan Buddhists and Hindus. According to legend, Manjushree, the bodhisattva of wisdom, was in the process of raising the temple hill when the lice in his hair transformed into these monkeys. Swayambhunath means self arisen and is derived from that legend. Breakfast Hotel 1,350m

Hidden Gem Cultural Trek in Nepal

The Tamang Heritage Trek is the best trek nobody talks about enough. Opened only in 2004 and still so wonderfully quiet and genuine. Every village had real life happening farming, weaving, praying, laughing. Our guide was so brilliant and made every day feel like a warm hug from Nepal. He sang Tamang songs on the flat sections and told us what the words meant. Himalaya Hub is a cultural trek specialist in Nepal and their passion for this community based route is obvious in every detail. Go before everyone else discovers it. Best trekking company in Nepal without any doubt.

Beautiful Spring Rhododendron Trek in Nepal

The rhododendron forests between Briddim and Syabrubesi in spring were incredible. Red and pink flowers everywhere and the whole forest smelled wonderful. Our guide stopped to show us langur monkeys in the branches and wildflowers along the trail. Himalaya Hub is one of the best trekking agencies in Nepal and their spring timing was perfect. The Tamang Heritage Trail through Langtang National Park was so beautiful and alive. Amazing experience in Nepal. Safe and well organized the whole time.

Best Beginner Friendly Trek in Nepal

I was nervous about trekking in Nepal because I am not very fit. The Tamang Heritage Trek was perfect no dangerous altitude, friendly villages, and the highest point is only 3,165m at Nagthali. Our guide was so patient and encouraging every single day. Himalaya Hub is a trusted trekking company in Nepal and their easy trek Nepal planning was exactly right for me. I finally understand why people love trekking. Highly recommended trekking company for beginners.
