Itinerary

Full-Day Cultural & Scenic Drive Tour

Morning: Discover Bhaktapur (Pickup around 9:00 AM)

Nyatapola Temple (Nepal’s tallest pagoda)

Midday: Newari Lunch Break

Take a break in a local courtyard restaurant and enjoy a plate of ‘Samay Baji’ or Newari-style lunch. Optional: try locally brewed rice beer (‘Chyang’) if you're feeling adventurous.

Afternoon: Scenic Drive to Nagarkot (approx. 1.5 hrs)

After lunch, you’ll drive uphill through peaceful countryside to Nagarkot, perched at 2,175 meters. Once a royal retreat, today it’s one of the best spots near Kathmandu for wide-angle Himalayan views.

Evening: Nagarkot Sunset Experience

Settle in at the Nagarkot View Tower or a quiet ridge-top spot. As the sun begins to dip, the snow-capped peaks catch fire—turning gold, then crimson, then fading into twilight.

After sunset, drive back to Kathmandu (approx. 2 hrs.).
