This 9-day journey offers a balanced mix of culture, light trekking, and soft adventure in Nepal. After arriving in Kathmandu, you’ll have time to rest and explore before driving to Pokhara with an optional rafting experience on the Trishuli River along the way. From Pokhara, a short drive takes you to Ghandruk, a traditional Gurung village with clear mountain views of Annapurna South and Machhapuchhre on good weather days. The trek continues to Chhomrong through stone steps, forests, and suspension bridges, offering a genuine Himalayan village experience rather than extreme high-altitude trekking. After descending to Jhinu, you drive back to Pokhara to relax with boating on Phewa Lake and enjoy sunrise from Sarangkot, along with sightseeing at Davis Falls, Gupteshwor Cave, and local temples. Returning to Kathmandu, you explore major heritage and pilgrimage sites including Swayambhunath, Pashupatinath Temple, Budhanilkantha Temple, and Bhaktapur Durbar Square before departure. The tour is suitable for travelers seeking moderate walking, cultural insight, scenic mountain views, and comfortable hotel stays throughout.
