There is so much to explore and experience in Kathmandu, from the 7 UNESCO Cultural Heritage Sites to the tasty MOMOs. The art, history, cultural sites, and foods of Kathmandu are renowned worldwide.
After that, the tour moves from Kathmandu to Pokhara, tourists’ sought-after place in Nepal. Also famous as the city of Lakes, Pokhara has so many beautiful things to offer to its visitors. We will have a great time in Pokhara, enjoying boat riding, Sunrise view, Mountain viewing, Cave visits, Paragliding, and more.
And, finally, we’ll travel from Pokhara to Lumbini for an insightful and tranquil tour of the birthplace of Buddha. There are precisely twenty-five different Buddhist monasteries constructed by various countries like Germany, France, Vietnam, etc. Moreover, the Maya Devi Temple-the exact birthplace of Buddha, Ashoka Pillar, and Lumbini Museum are the other must-visit places in Lumbini.
With all that, we’ll finish the eight days of the Kathmandu Pokhara and Lumbini Tour. And arriving back in Kathmandu, you will have a depth idea about Nepal, its famous destinations, and a handful of memories.

Sabbatical Explore Nepal's team planned this excursion, which went excellent and was exceptionally well planned. We had the best guide on this trip who was friendly, humorous, and professional. He made us feel easy throughout the excursion. He was always there to explain the new things of the journey from the unique hanging bridges to the rapid Dudh Koshi River. The entire team for the journey was great. I can say the trip to Everest Base Camp is a trip for my lifetime. Thanks a lot to the entire team of Sabbatical!

I went to Upper Mustang Trek with them, which I can vividly remember even after 2 months now. I found out about this team from one of my friends. I'm glad he suggested it. Everything went well during the trek. The guide was so humble and good. He showed me things that I could never have if I was traveling solo. I feel a deep connection with the landscapes of Mustang. Thanks to the guide and the team. The trip was a great experience!

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.
