Golden Triangle Nepal Tour- Your Luxury Tour in Nepal

Namaste, & welcome to Nepal!

Meet your Relax Getaways representative at the airport and transfer to your hotel. Outside the window, busy streets and neighborhood shrines offer your first glimpse of Kathmandu.

Once you’ve settled in, the rest of the day is yours. Arriving early? Wander through Thamel, browse the handicraft shops or try a plate of freshly steamed momo. Later, join your pre-trip briefing to discuss the journey ahead and ask any questions before your adventure begins.

Included: Airport transfer and pre-trip briefing.

After breakfast, head out with your guide to explore four of the valley’s UNESCO World heritage sites. At hilltop Swayambhunath, prayer flags frame views across the city. Around Boudhanath’s great white dome, follow the clockwise flow of worshippers and listen to the turning prayer wheels.

Visit Pashupatinath’s riverside precinct, where your guide explains the Hindu traditions practiced here. This is an active place of worship and cremation, best approached quietly and respectfully. Then explore Patan Durbar Square, taking a closer look at its temples, palace courtyards and intricate craftsmanship.

Pause for lunch along the way, with recommendations from your guide. Return to your hotel after a full day of exploring; the evening is free.

Included: Guided sightseeing, private sightseeing vehicle and listed entrance fees.
Allow: Approximately six hours; visiting order may vary.

Leave the capital after breakfast and travel toward Chitwan. Watch the scenery change from hillsides and riverside settlements to the flatter landscapes of the Terai. This is a travel day, with plenty to see through the window as you pass farms, small towns and roadside markets.

On arrival, settle into your accommodation and meet the team (Nature guide) who will introduce your jungle activity program. They’ll explain what to expect, what to bring and how to explore with care.

Included: Road transfer and lodge briefing; Meals: Breakfast, lunch and dinner
Optional: Tharu cultural performance, subject to availability and confirmation.

Today is all about looking a little closer. Join your naturalist for the lodge’s scheduled safari activities, watching for rhinos, deer, monkeys and birdlife among Chitwan’s forests and grasslands. Your guide will help you notice tracks, calls and movements you might otherwise miss.

Return for lunch and a break before the afternoon program. Depending on your confirmed arrangements and local conditions, activities may include a canoe outing, a guided nature walk and introduction to Tharu village life. Each offers a different perspective on the area, from quiet riverbanks to the communities living nearby.

Over dinner, compare your favorite moments from the day. Wildlife sightings are never guaranteed, and that sense of anticipation is part of the experience. And Spotting Bengal tiger will always be the greatest aim.

Included: Jungle activities according to your confirmed lodge program.
Bring: Closed shoes, neutral-colored clothing, insect repellent and sun protection.

After breakfast, continue toward Pokhara, passing river valleys, farmland and roadside towns as the route returns to the hills. Settle in and enjoy seeing the everyday life between Nepal’s better-known destinations.

Check into your hotel on arrival, then spend the remaining afternoon at your own pace. Lakeside is a lovely place to start: browse the shops, find a café or walk beside Phewa Lake while the boats drift past. Clear skies may reveal mountain views beyond the surrounding hills.

There’s no rush to fit everything in today. Tomorrow brings the main sightseeing, so enjoy a relaxed dinner and an easy evening.

Included: Road transfer
Free time: Independent Lakeside exploration

An early start takes you to Sarangkot as daylight reaches the mountains. On a clear morning, watch the Annapurna peaks brighten above the valley before returning to your hotel for breakfast.

Continue with your guide to Bindhyabasini Temple, Devi’s Fall and nearby Gupteshwor Mahadev Cave. After a break for lunch, enjoy a boat ride on Phewa Lake with a visit to Tal Barahi Temple on its small island.

Then head to the World Peace Pagoda for another view over the lake and surrounding hills. If time allows, explore the Old Bazaar before returning to Lakeside. Your final evening in Pokhara is free for a stroll or dinner at a restaurant of your choice.

Top Attractions: Sarangkot Sunrise View, guided sightseeing, Phewa Lake boating and World Peace Pagoda.
Good to know: Mountain visibility depends on weather; lunch and dinner are at your own expense.

Enjoy breakfast before beginning the road journey back to Kathmandu. River valleys and hillside settlements accompany you along the way, with a stop for lunch at your own expense.

After checking into your hotel, take time to rest. Depending on arrival time, you might fit in a final wander through Thamel for tea, handicrafts or a souvenir to take home.

Tonight, join your included farewell dinner at a traditional Nepali restaurant with a cultural performance. Share your favorite moments over a meal and enjoy one final evening before tomorrow’s departure.

Included: Road transfer and farewell dinner with cultural performance.

Enjoy breakfast and any remaining free time before your airport transfer. Depending on your flight schedule, there may be time for one last cup of Nepali tea or a short walk near your hotel.
