Private Tour of Kathmandu

The capital of Nepal awaits on this private tour of Kathmandu. After hotel pickup at the selected time, we'll drive to the city center to begin exploring.

We'll embark on a guided walking tour of Kathmandu, focusing on Durbar Square, home to many significant buildings and monuments. Admire the Hanuman Dhoka, the former palace complex of the Nepalese monarchy until 1886, as your guide discusses key events in Nepal's history and the influences of Hinduism and Buddhism in daily life.

After this, we will drive through Freak Street and arrive at Kumari House to learn about the Living Goddess or Kumari, a young girl revered as a deity.

Our next stop is Swayambhunath, a religious complex with panoramic views of Kathmandu from its hilltop location. The temple, over 2500 years old, impresses visitors with its golden colors and the notable Buddha's eyes depicted on all sides.

This private tour of Kathmandu concludes back at your hotel after three and a half hours of exploration.
