Kathmandu City Tour

Pick-up from your hotel and begin an unforgettable journey through the living history and spirituality of Kathmandu, visiting four of its most iconic UNESCO World Heritage Sites:

1. Swayambhunath Stupa (Monkey Temple)
Perched high above the city, Swayambhunath is one of Nepal’s oldest and most revered spiritual sites. Its gleaming white dome and golden spire, adorned with the all-seeing eyes of the Buddha, overlook the Kathmandu Valley. Said to have emerged from a lotus in a primordial lake, the stupa embodies harmony between Buddhist and Hindu traditions. The playful monkeys, fluttering prayer flags, and sweeping panoramic views create a serene and timeless atmosphere.

2. Kathmandu Durbar Square
Step into the heart of Kathmandu’s royal and cultural legacy. Once the seat of Malla and Shah kings, Kathmandu Durbar Square is a masterpiece of Newar architecture, filled with intricately carved temples, courtyards, and palaces. Visit Hanuman Dhoka Palace, the Taleju Temple, and the Kumari Ghar, home of Nepal’s Living Goddess. Every corner whispers stories of devotion, artistry, and centuries-old tradition.

3. Boudhanath Stupa
Majestic and deeply spiritual, Boudhanath stands as one of the world’s largest stupas and the heart of Tibetan Buddhism in Nepal. Circled daily by monks and pilgrims spinning prayer wheels, its white dome and golden pinnacle radiate peace and compassion. The surrounding streets buzz with vibrant Tibetan culture — monasteries, prayer flags, and rooftop cafés offering perfect views of this sacred monument.

4. Pashupatinath Temple
End the day at Pashupatinath, Nepal’s most sacred Hindu shrine dedicated to Lord Shiva. Set beside the holy Bagmati River, this vast complex of temples and ashrams is alive with ritual and devotion. Witness the spiritual rhythm of life, from meditating sadhus to evening aarati ceremonies — and observe the ancient Hindu cremation rites that reflect the deep cycle of life, death, and rebirth.

Return to your hotel with lasting memories of Kathmandu’s spiritual heart and its timeless cultural heritage.
