Nepal Holidays
This long thin Hindu kingdom remains one of the most popular destinations for all travellers in search of a vibrant culture and incredible scenery. Most visitors agree that it is the people of Nepal which make it so special. Generous, welcoming and so very proud of their heritage, it never fails to please.
No Nepal holiday would be complete without visiting the three towns of Kathmandu, Patan and Bhakatpur which sit in the Kathmandu valley and whose intricate architecture reflects their origins in the Hindu religion. Bustling streets, endless stalls, markets, cows and people form an intoxicating kaleidoscope of noise and colour. Take an early morning flight along the Himalayas where, on a clear day, Everest can be seen or spend two or three days river rafting on one of the valleys many rivers. For those keen trekkers, the walking here is unmatched with the opportunity of doing short day hikes or week long treks through the stunning Himalayan landscape.
A Nepal holiday is also perfect for families with children of all ages. There are short easy treks to be had when little children will simply be carried by porters and all of them will love camping and the seemingly inexhaustible supply of delicious food. Then there is river rafting which is very gentle and yet gives everyone a buzz of excitement. Finally there is the Chitwan National Park offering the opportunity to ride out on elephants through the tall grasslands looking for the one horned Indian rhinoceros and the elusive tiger.
