Activity itinerary

Swayambhunath Temple
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket included
We’ll pick you up from your hotel in Kathmandu to start the journey to Swayambhunath, one of the most revered religious sites in Nepal, surrounded by myth and legend. Swayambhunath Stupa, also known as the Monkey Temple, is one of Kathmandu’s most iconic and revered Buddhist sites. Perched on a hilltop, this UNESCO World Heritage Site offers panoramic views of the Kathmandu Valley. The stupa, believed to be over 2,000 years old, is surrounded by myth, legend, and vibrant prayer flags, while mischievous monkeys roam freely, adding to its unique charm.
Kirtipur
  • 4h
After exploring Swayambhu, we travel to Kirtipur, an off-the-beaten-path destination filled with rich history and authentic Newari culture. This town is often overlooked by tourists but holds some of the oldest monuments in Nepal. Visit the ancient stupa, temples, and other historical landmarks while observing the local lifestyle of the Newari people. Witness traditional crafts, architecture, and practices that have been passed down for centuries. Kirtipur is a historic town just outside of Kathmandu, known for its rich Newari heritage, ancient temples, and traditional lifestyle. End the tour with a delightful meal at a rooftop restaurant in Kirtipur. Savour traditional Newari dishes while enjoying stunning views of the Kathmandu Valley. Taste two or more varieties of local beer and liquors, and choose your favourite one to enjoy more of. After an enriching day of exploration, we’ll drop you back at your hotel.
