Good to know
How long should a multi-region trip be?
Seven or eight days is enough for two or three regions without rushing. Each extra region needs about two nights, because travel days in Nepal are short flights or long drives.
How do we travel between regions?
Mostly by short domestic flights (Kathmandu to Pokhara is about 25 minutes) and by private car. The Chitwan to Pokhara drive takes about five to six hours on a winding road; we tell you where each trip uses it.
What happens if a flight is delayed by weather?
Mountain flights and helicopters only fly in good visibility. Our itineraries keep a spare afternoon or a flexible day where it matters, and we rebook flights for you if the weather moves them.
The complete guide
Choosing your regions
Most first visits pair Kathmandu’s heritage with Pokhara’s lake and mountain views. Add Chitwan for wildlife, or a helicopter morning to Everest or Annapurna Base Camp for the high mountains without trekking.
Pace
We plan one main activity a day and leave time to rest. Early starts are kept for sunrise viewpoints and helicopter flights, when the mountains are clearest.
Comfort and Luxury
Every journey is priced at two levels. Comfort uses good four-star and boutique hotels such as Hotel Barahi and Fish Tail Lodge; Luxury uses Dwarika’s Hotel, The Pavilions Himalayas and, in Chitwan, Meghauli Serai, a Taj Safari lodge.
