Nepal offers a variety of tour packages. Of course, the best Nepal tour packages are the ones that include activities that match your interests and requirements.

This country is notable for adventure, world-famous trekking, cultural tours, wildlife tours, and not-to-miss scenic tours.

To help customize your own Nepal tour package, we have provided a few guidelines on what destinations and activities to include to make the best Nepal vacation package.

1. Best Nepal Tour Packages | Scenic Nepal Tours

No doubt, Nepal is one of the most scenic destinations on the planet. As the name suggests, these Nepal tours include the picturesque regions of Nepal. The scenic Nepal tours include amazing landscape and Himalayan views, a scenic city, and a beautiful hilltop village.

If you are looking forward to scenic Nepal tours, we recommend including the following destinations on your upcoming Nepal tour:

a. Nagarkot Hilltop Village

This beautiful hilltop of Nagarkot lies northwest of Bhaktapur. This hilltop village is famous for its fabulous views of the Himalayan range. This beautiful spot is 1.5 hours’ drive from Kathmandu’s downtown area. Well known for its mountain views, dawn, and dusk views, this charming destination is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Nepal.

If you are planning a scenic tour in Nepal, do not miss including Nagarkot Hill in your Nepal tour package.
Furthermore, visit Nagarkot between October and December (pre-winter season) and March and May (spring season) to get compensated with a magnificent view of the Himalaya range. It can get very cold at Nagarkot in the autumn and winter. Hence, if you are getting ready for a one-night stay in Nagarkot, come prepared with warm clothing.

Generally, mountain watchers advance up to Nagarkot, remain in one of the hotels, and rise early in the morning to catch a beautiful sunrise view over the Himalayas.

Nevertheless, Nagarkot is pretty much a one-night stand, so we recommend you include only one overnight in Nagarkot.

b. Pokhara City

Pokhara is 205 kilometers (6 hours) from Kathmandu.This city has picked up its popularity because of the incredible views of mountains and serene lakes. This city appreciates a mellow atmosphere, clean air, and snow-topped mountains reflected in sheltered lakes. At lakeside, Pokhara is a traveler’s oasis.

Upon arriving in Pokhara, appreciate a stroll around this well-known lakeside area. Furthermore, there are plenty of restaurants where you can dine with soothing music playing in the background.

The early next morning excursion to Sarangkot hill should be the highlight of your scenic Nepal tour package. Furthermore, Sarangkot is probably the most popular short excursion from Pokhara.

This place is famous for panoramic Himalaya views, including Mount Dhaulagiri, Annapurna South, Himchuli, Mount Fishtail, Annapurna III, IV, and II, and Lamjung Himal. Furthermore, it is the best view point in Pokhara to catch the magical sunrise view.

2. Best Nepal Tour Packages | Cultural Nepal Tours

Nepal is a land of ancient history, colorful culture, and people. Combining common magnificence, traditional legacy, and a rich history, Nepal is one of the most culturally appealing countries on the planet.

Historical cities, temples, stupas, and monasteries surround the nation where more than 127 different ethnic groups live in harmony, practicing their own culture, language, and belief system.

If you are looking forward to a cultural Nepal tour package, we recommend you include these destinations.

a. Kathmandu

This capital city is the cultural hub of the country, where dozens of people practicing different cultures reside. Furthermore, Kathmandu is also referred to as the “Open Cultural Museum.” Here, in the winding alleys and hidden courtyards, are temples and shrines that date back to the 5th and 6th centuries.

Explore Kathmandu and its sister cities, Patan and Bhaktapur, decorated with medieval shrines and ancient palaces. If you are a culture enthusiast, Kathmandu is the best place to be in Nepal.

You can spend an entire week visiting various cultural sites, such as Kathmandu Durbar Square, Swoyambhunath Stupa, Pashupatinath Temple, Boudhanath Stupa, Bhaktapur Durbar Square, Changu Narayan Temple, and Patan Durbar Square. Furthermore, all these sites are UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

b. Lumbini

After Kathmandu, Lumbini is another appealing cultural destination in Nepal. The birthplace of Lord Buddha is a place where the great Indian Buddhist emperor Ashoka erected a famous pillar 318 years ago, known as the Pillars of Ashoka. This destination in western Nepal is a Mecca for Buddhist pilgrims.

Located in the western Terai of Nepal, this famous Buddhist pilgrimage site doesn’t take long to cover. The Maya Devi Temple is one of the most sacred sites in Lumbini, and it is believed to be the spot where Buddha was born.

Furthermore, the other attractions include the Ashokan Pillar, the Sacred Pond, and the Tibetan monasteries. It is worth an overnight stay as this part of the country is afflicted by heat for about nine months of the year. It is best to visit these sites in the early mornings or late afternoons.

c. Janakpur

Janakpur is one of the most venerated sites for Hindus, making this place one of the most important cultural sites in Nepal. The religious significance of Janakpur is due to its role in the famous Hindu epic, The Ramayana. It is the birthplace of the legendary Sita and the site of her marriage to Rama.

Furthermore, this is an interesting town with temples, pools, holy men, and rickshaws. Janaki Mandir is the center of this town. It is built over the spot where her father, King Janak, found her. Other attractions here include Ram Sita Bibaha Temple, Ram Temple, Dhanush Sagar, and other temples and ponds.

5. Best Nepal Tour Packages | Nepal Wildlife Tours

Nepal truly is a land of diversity. Well-known for its soaring Himalayan peaks, it is amazing to note that this country also hosts hot subtropical plains with jungles teeming with exotic wildlife. Moreover, Nepal offers one of the finest wildlife experiences in Asia. This place is also the last holding ground for endangered species like Bengal tigers and one-horned rhinoceros.

Below are the places in Nepal where you can have one of the greatest wildlife experiences in Nepal.

a. Chitwan National Park

This national park is the most visited tourist destination in Nepal. The name means “Heart of the Jungle”. However, sadly, this description holds true only for the land protected within the park. Chitwan is home to 56 mammalian species, including sloth bears, leopards, langurs, and four types of deer.

There are various exciting jungle activities the park offers, such as jungle walks, elephant back safaris, canoe trips, and jeep safaris. Spotting a tiger will depend upon your luck, but you are definitely going to see one-horned rhinoceros, different species of deer, and birds.

Due to its easy accessibility, Chitwan welcomes a higher number of tourists than the other national parks below.

b. Bardia National Park

While Chitwan National Park becomes increasingly mass-marketed, Bardia National Park, lying in the far western region of Nepal, northwest of Nepalgunj, is the largest area of undisturbed wilderness left in the Terai region of Nepal.

There are a few budget lodges, but nothing as compared to Chitwan, and the distance from Kathmandu is likely to shield many visitors for many years to come. Nevertheless, only a few dedicated wildlife enthusiasts make their way to this wilderness, where wildlife spotting is much better than in Chitwan.

Ecologically, Bardia National Park spans a greater range of habitats than Chitwan. Hence, you are more likely to spot a tiger in this part of the wilderness. Furthermore, if you are a wildlife enthusiast, Bardia National Park should not be missed.

c.  Koshi Tappu Wildlife Reserve

Chitwan is the most visited national park, then Bardia sees fewer tourists, and Koshi Tappu is the least visited wildlife reserve in Nepal. You will not find any tigers, or rhinos, here, nor even a proper jungle. However, this reserve is a haven for birdwatchers. Some 465 bird species, many of them endangered, have been found here.

This reserve was established to protect the last remaining wild buffalo. You can also spot mugger crocodiles, many species of turtles, fish, and gigantic dolphins playing in the water.
