Kathmandu Chitwan and Lumbini Tour is a special tour by Sabbatical Explore Nepal. It is a handcrafted Nepal Tour package for admirers of Nepal’s art, history, culture, and nature. Let’s unknot what this tour is all about.
As said earlier, Kathmandu Chitwan and Lumbini Tour is a distinct itinerary to explore Nepal. It is an eight-day plan to visit Nepal’s three most popular stations. Let’s begin with Kathmandu. You will join us on this tour by arriving in Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal. If you are not aware, Kathmandu is a historical Valley with rich architecture, culture, and art. The valley is dotted with seven different UNESCO cultural heritage sites; we’ll visit most of them.
Next, we travel to Chitwan to add some adventure to the tour. The adventure will happen when we enter the Chitwan National Park, the best Jungle Safari in Nepal. In there, we’ll encounter the loaded Jungle Kingdom and, maybe, the king Royal Bengal Tiger during our time in the park. And many things will happen in Chitwan, from Jungle Safari, Jungle Walks to Lake visits. Isn’t that so exciting? Wait, It’s not finished yet!
Afterward, we’ll reach Lumbini, the birthplace of Gautama Buddha, the founder of Buddhism. The pilgrimage site in Lumbini is a peaceful place to be; we’ll get enlightening vibes throughout the area. Many Buddhist monasteries, gompas, shrines, and temples, including the Iconic Maya Devi Temple, are there to visit. We’ll explore as many as possible. And, finally, the Kathmandu Chitwan and Lumbini Tour will conclude back in Kathmandu with many remembrances worth sharing.
To sum up, Kathmandu Chitwan Lumbini Tour is a multi-experience tour taking you to places in Nepal for multiple experiences. You’ll know the rich history & architecture, cultural & religious diversity, and natural offerings of Nepal in one trip. We guess you surely would like to have this one on your next-visit list.

I did Everest Base Camp Trek! I don't think I have words to explain all the experiences of the trek. But I am thankful to Shiva for managing a great guide for my trek. I knew the trek is beautiful but not entirely. All the prayer flags, busy farm fields, like traditional hamlets, and yes giant peaks, these all are running through my mind while writing this. Thanks for this amazing trek. The guide helped me deal with the challenges of the trek without getting anxious. Thanks to him and the team! I suggest this group of experts to everyone reading my experience. You won't regret joining them. I am not!

We had a wonderful time on our gap year in Nepal. The Total 48 days in Nepal on our career break trip was meaningful and memorable. Kathmandu city is amazing and vibrant with different cultures of Temples, Stupas and also Mosque. Monkey Temple, Pashupati Crematory Kathmandu Durbar square, Bauddha Nath very famous historical-cultural-heritage sites in Kathmandu. We have visit less-visited local places in Kathmandu and lived with a local family in Bhaktapur for two weeks. Bhaktapur is a completely deep traditional and diverse city on the basis of culture and language. JWAJULAPA PASA :P)
After Bhaktapur, we went to trekking to Kalo and Seto kunda. It was major with two holy lakes of Nepal which helps to shows the Himalayan beauty of Ganesh Himal. The one who offers for trekking in Kalo and Seto Kunda got a great opportunity to learn and experience typical Tamang and Gurung culture.
The trek of Kalo and Seto Kunda was with the guide and he had arranged of vehicles from Kathmandu to Syabrubeshi which takes 8 to 9 hours to reach Syabrubeshi. Syabrubeshi is taken as the gateway to Langtang valley which is situated at the confluence of Bhotekosi River and Langtang Khola. i and my friend will defenately visit again to Kathmandu and we are sure for Social Tourism & Sabbatical Explore Nepal are the best career break trip planner in Nepal.

Chitwan Jungle Safari was a great experience with good value for money. We hired the Car from Kathmandu and stayed for 02 Nights. Our trip was well organized with good service on time. It was rainy and animals were scarce but the driver and Guide worked hard to spot them for us. 01-hour canoeing ride in the middle of hundreds of Crocodiles & Gharial followed by Elephant Breeding Center was an amazing experience. Our Jeep Safari of 04 hrs of continuous rides on the main Jungle was quite a good experience. The excitement level goes up when any kind of Wildlife creature is spotted. We saw Peacock, One Horn Rhino, and different species of Birds but with no luck Royal Bengal Tiger missed out. Overall it was a lovely and memorable experience with good Food and will highly recommend this tour. The best season would be in Winter with good Nature.
