City Tour in Nepal

Nepal is a destination burned on your memory, unable to be forgotten but always longed for. The Nepalese formula combines cultural interest through hundreds of century-old temples and religious traditions with the natural beauty that Nepal is so blessed to boast. With eight of the ten tallest mountains in the world within its borders, you know to expect something extraordinary – but no number of photos can prepare you for the real thing. Its jungles, often forgotten amidst the grandeur of Mount Everest and its fellow Himalayan brothers, are equally impressive, though in a vastly different way.
Nepal’s political situation has improved greatly over the last couple of years. The country, a republic since 2008, is still on its way to finding a stable political balance. Government coalitions are formed and dissolved frequently. This doesn’t impact travelers in a great way.
