Itinerary
Kathmandu Durbar Square
Kathmandu Durbar Square, once the royal palace of the Malla kings and later the Shah dynasty, dates back to the 12th century. This historical complex served as the seat of power and witnessed coronations and state ceremonies. The square features exquisite Newari architecture, with intricately carved wooden windows, pagoda-style temples, and iconic structures like Hanuman Dhoka Palace, Kumari Ghar (Home of the Living Goddess), and Taleju Temple. Visitors can immerse themselves in centuries of art, politics, and culture.
Swaymbhunath
Swayambhunath Stupa is believed to have been founded over 2,000 years ago, making it one of the oldest religious sites in Nepal. According to legend, the stupa emerged spontaneously from a lotus flower in a primordial lake that once covered the Kathmandu Valley. This sacred Buddhist site features a gleaming white dome, gilded spire, and all-seeing eyes of Buddha. Surrounded by smaller shrines and inhabited by playful monkeys, it offers spiritual calm and panoramic views of the valley.
Pashupatinath Temple
Pashupatinath Temple, dedicated to Lord Shiva, dates back to 400 A.D., making it one of the oldest and most sacred Hindu temples in the world. It was rebuilt by King Bhupatindra Malla in the 17th century after earlier structures were destroyed. Situated along the Bagmati River, it is a site of daily rituals, cremation ceremonies, and religious festivals like Maha Shivaratri. Though non-Hindus cannot enter the main sanctum, the surrounding shrines and ghats offer a deep cultural and spiritual experience.
Boudhanath Stupa
Boudhanath Stupa was built in the 5th century after the Mughal invasions, becoming a center for Tibetan Buddhism after refugees fled to Nepal. It is one of the largest stupas in the world and a key pilgrimage site. The stupa’s massive mandala base, topped by a white dome and golden spire with Buddha’s watchful eyes, draws monks and devotees for daily kora. Surrounded by monasteries and Tibetan shops, Boudhanath radiates peace, spirituality, and vibrant cultural life.

We toured Nepal for 1 month, to many places, mountains, sunrise, safaris from KTM to Pokhara to Chitwan.
We were always taken care of in every situation, Shree always at hand to sort everything out, even manifesting a brilliant birthday cake for my 60th birthday 🎂 🥳 🎉

Impactful and well organised.
Shree and his team are excellent, they provide security and in-depth local knowledge. They are excellent at managing timings with respect to 'Nepali time' and visitors wanting to get the most out of their experience. I always felt safe and that I was seeing the most significant things.

Perfect visit to the capital
Once again a great experience. Shreeram knows all corners of the city, can say something about all areas and has thus completely delighted my whole family again. I'm glad he's allowed us to get to know this great country so deeply
K
100% worth it. Epic adventures made my trip go perfectly
Absolutely recommend, Shree and team were super helpful and knowledgeable. This was my first big trip overseas and they made what would have been an overwhelming trip an easy and fun experience. I completely recommend having Epic Adventures guide you when in Nepal.

Highly recommend!
Had such a great experience with epic adventures. From watching the sunrise over the Himalayas to touring through the jungle in Chitwan in an open jeep and exploring through Nepalese villages. The tour guides Shree, Sam and Anil were so kind and always making sure everyone was there (as we had a large group) and having fun! Would highly recommend choosing epic adventures if you are looking to explore Nepal.

Food Tour
The food tour was great! If you are a food lover, this is a great opportunity to enrich your Nepal experience. Our guide was nice, friendly, he took us to super authentic places where it is difficult for a tourist to find his way on his own. Everything we tasted was excellent (Samosa, Yomari, Bara, etc.) He even complied with our request that everything be vegetarian. I really recommend it!
