Luxury Nepal Holidays & Tours

Our luxury Nepal holidays reveal the essence of this Himalayan nation with its soaring snowclad peaks, fluttering prayer flags, steamy subtropical plains teeming with wildlife, and a rich culture that dates back to the time of the Buddha. Corinthian’s gentle walking holidays in Nepal are one of the best ways to experience the beauty of the Himalaya and feature the finest selection of mountain lodges in the Annapurna and Lower Mustang regions. These almost unequalled mountain vistas, combined with the prospect of white-water adventure and the call of the wild, also make a Nepal family holiday a thrilling choice for active teenagers.

Cultural enthusiasts looking for a luxury Nepal holiday will relish exploring the magnificent architecture of the Kathmandu Valley and travelling off the beaten track through the charming little-visited villages of central Nepal, while visitors in quest of Nirvana will find the meditative vibe that pervades Lumbini utterly blissful.

The country’s strategic location in the central Himalaya makes it an ideal gateway for visitors seeking the ultimate mountain odyssey that combines the mystical worlds of Nepal, Lhasa in Tibet or Nepal, and Bhutan. While travelling on one of our privately guided luxury Nepal holidays, you’ll be able to immerse yourself in the magic of the Himalaya. The land of the Buddha’s birth is an enchanting and truly extraordinary place.

Swayambunath Shrine

Sacred Swayambunath Shrine in Nepal is the oldest Buddhist shrine in the country. Climbing the 360 steps to reach the temple is worth it for the unique atmosphere and the breathtaking panoramic views of the Kathmandu Valley.

Patan Royal Palace

The 17th-century Patan Royal Palace is one of the best-preserved palace complexes within the Kathmandu Valley and the only one that has retained its original character through the centuries.

Sunrise over the Himalaya

Watching the first rays of the rising sun paint the snow-capped peaks of the Himalaya in hues of yellow, orange and red is undoubtedly dramatic and is one of Nepal’s outstanding natural spectacles.

Dhulikhel

A charming hill station, a well-preserved Newari town, and an excellent place for a taste of the mountains and easy day hikes. The mountain views and sunrise over the Himalaya are spectacular!

Muktinath Temple

Surrounded by the towering 8,000m peaks of the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri mountain ranges, the revered Muktinath Temple is one of the most important pilgrimage centres in the Himalaya and is sacred by Hindus and Buddhists.

Chitwan National Park

Once the private hunting reserve of the Nepal royal family, now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. One of the best places to spot the endangered one-horned rhinoceros in its natural habitat.

Newari art and architecture

The Newaris are skilled artists in Nepal, known for their contribution to the region’s architectural heritage. The Durbar Squares in Kathmandu, Patan, and Bhaktapur showcase their work, including wood carving, painting, and stone sculpture.

Evening prayer ceremony at Pashupatinath

Accompanied by hypnotic sounds from conch shells, horns, and Vedic chants, the atmospheric ‘Aarti’ ceremony performed every evening on the banks of Kathmandu’s Bagmati River is a not-to-be-missed cultural experience.

Bhaktapur

Bhaktapur is a quintessential Newari town renowned for its medieval atmosphere and timeless feel. A walk through the maze of narrow cobblestoned streets lined with ornamented houses is an immersive experience.
