Patan Private Tour

Temples, palaces and golden sculptures: immerse yourself in the rich cultural heritage of Patan, the third largest city in Nepal, on this private tour from Kathmandu with your own exclusive English speaking guide.

Patan Private Tour

After picking you up from your hotel in Kathmandu at the selected time, we'll leave the Nepalese capital behind, setting off on our short 30 minute drive to Patan.

Upon arrival in Patan, also known as Lalitpur or "City of Beauty", we'll embark on our guided walking tour of its historic centre, one of the oldest Buddhist cities in the world.

We'll spend two and a half hours exploring Patan and admiring its most emblematic monuments, including the famous Durbar, or Royal Palace Square, a UNESCO World Heritage Site with around twenty different historic buildings used by the Malla kings when Patan was an independent city-state.

Buddhist and Hindu temples, water conduits, spouts and tanks, intricately carved gates and sculptures await you in Patan. We'll visit the eye-catching Golden Gate, the entrance to the Royal Palace, and the sculpture of Yogendra Malla.

The excursion will conclude with drop off at your hotel in Kathmandu after three and a half hours discovering the rich culture of Patan.
