CULTURAL TOURS IN NEPAL

The Best Tours of Nepal

We offer small group and tailor made tours of Nepal. We have designed our tours to showcase the best places to visit while staying at a hotel. Nepal is a fascinating country to explore with an incredible diversity of landscape and culture. With our itineraries we have chosen the best locations to see the Himalayas. Enjoying views of the highest mountains in the world is an incredible experience. There are mountain panoramas from the hotels at Bandipur, Pokhara, Namo Buddha and Dhulikel. On a clear day you will see Annapurna, Dhaulagiri and Mount Machapuchare (known as Fishtail). You can also see Mount Everest during the mountain flight from Kathmandu.

On a tailor made tour we can add trekking in Nepal if you would like to experience walking in the Himalayas. We can include one night or more at a Ker & Downey lodge in the Annapurna region. These lodges are used for our Annapurna Luxury Lodge trek. We also organise cultural tours of Bhutan and can design a combined tour of Nepal and Bhutan.

The Mountain Company has been operating in Nepal since 2004. Our Managing Director, Roland Hunter, has set up our tours based on his knowledge of the country. He has inspected a large number of hotels and selected the best ones for our tour itineraries. We look forward to welcoming you to Kathmandu in the future.

When is the best time to travel to Nepal for a tour?

The most popular months to visit Nepal for a cultural tour are in March, April, October and November. The weather can be warm and sunny during these months. This is also the peak trekking season. The best time to visit Nepal on a tour is during the Winter. During the months of December, January and February the weather is often sunny. There are far fewer other visitors in Winter compared to the busiest months of the year. It will be colder during the winter although for a tour you have the comforts of a hotel. The temperature would be too cold for most treks in the mountains.
