Introduction to Nepal

8 days from £3,655 per person

The perfect short tour of Nepal combining the cultural, scenic and natural wonders of this fascinating country. Spend time exploring Kathmandu and the surrounding valley with its ancient Hindu and Buddhist sites which still draw thousands of pilgrims every day. Continue to Pokhara which is renowned for its wonderful Himalayan views, particularly Fishtail Mountain where you can appreciate the views whilst walking in the area and taking a boat ride on Lake Phewa.

Drive on to Chitwan National Park, where one horned rhino and Bengal tiger may be viewed from elephant back. Fly back to Kathmandu and spend the final night in a mountain resort outside of the city with lovely views before returning to the UK. As the international flights are via Delhi, it is easy to add on some time in Northern India.

This luxury holiday itinerary is purely a suggestion; it can be booked as it is or alternatively used as a starting point for creating your own ideal tailor-made trip to Nepal.

Client Testimonials

Ampersand’s preparation, attention to detail and interaction before and during our trip show exactly why good travel agents have a role in today’s internet booking age. They were a delight to deal with!
- Mr David Wallace, North India

I would recommend Ampersand without any hesitation!!! The best travel agent that I’ve ever had dealings with. Everything – from the individual care and attention in helping to plan the trip, through to the efficiency of the agents on the ground in India – was handled brilliantly. An absolutely first-class service all round.
- Matthew Annable, Rajasthan, India

I had a very lovely time and was looked after splendidly. My first visit to India could not have been better, save for being longer! But I shall return at some point and I shall look to you to make the arrangements.
- Matthew Nicklin, North India

Difficult to articulate just how good the service from you and your team really was. We know you will continue to do well and hope we have the chance to seek your assistance again before long.
- Mr & Mrs Manson, North India

I thought the Ampersand team was outstanding. We couldn’t have hoped for anything more.
- Mr Geoffrey Johnson, India

So many highlights to choose from! The hotels were amazing but Maya Villa was a highlight… I loved just hanging out in the hammock reading my book and watching the peacocks chase the cows!
- Krista Weir, Sri Lanka

We had a wonderful holiday - everything was perfect. Thank you for helping us to make a thoughtful plan to enjoy and make most out of our trip. The places we visited, the guides, the transportation and driver, the hotels selected... Everything was great!

Everything you did for us whilst we were away was hugely appreciated, and Ampersand has been exemplary in every way. I'll always recommend you!
- Mr Richard Stoughton, Sri Lanka
