Mention code 6068636 | | Intrepid Travel | | | | Day | Destination | Description | | Days 1-2 | Kathmandu | Chaotic, colourful and culturally rich, Kathmandu is a fascinating mixture of legend and life. Climb to the hilltop 'monkey temple' of Swayambhunath and keep an eye out for the living goddess on a guided walk through the old city to Durbar Square. | | Days 3-4 | Chitwan National Park | There's an opportunity to try out white water rafting, before heading to the Royal Chitwan National Park. Keep your eyes peeled for deer, monkeys, tigers and a wide array of bird life on an exciting wildlife safari. There are also optional activites, like a visit to the Crocodile Breeding Centre, an elephant ride to spot rhinos or even a trip down the lazy Rapti River in a dugout canoe. | | Day 5 | Bandipur | The charming ridgetop village of Bandipur is well off the main tourist trails. As a one street town, there's plenty of opportunities to meet the locals. The views of the mountain ranges form a perfect backdrop for a walk through the countryside and there's also time to visit the Bindabasini temple; residence of Bandipur's guardian deity, the goddess Durga. | | Day 6 | Pokhara | The Annapurna Ranges and a picturesque lake create a breathtaking setting to this easy-going town. Head for Sarangkot for superb views or cycle to nearby Tibetan villages specialising in traditional crafts. | | Day 7 | Overnight Trek | Savour the awesome Himalayan views, friendly smiling faces and crisp mountain air on a fully supported trek through the hills. Spend the night camping among the mountains, the perfect opportunity to awake early for a Himalayan sunrise. | | Day 8 | Pokhara | Celebrate your trekking achievements in Pokhara where you can be as lazy or active as you want. Take a boat out onto the lake, cycle to some nearby Tibetan villages or watch Nepalese life go by at one of the many international cafes. | | Day 9 | Nagarkot | With views over almost the entire length of Nepal's Himalayas, Nargakot is an ideal place to sit back and enjoy the view or join in a bit of kite flying with the locals! | | Days 10-11 | Kathmandu | Start the day with a walk through forests and villages to the temple of Changu Narayan. On the return journey to Kathmandu, stop by Bhaktapur and wander the narrow streets to riverside temples, an ideal finish to a fantastic family adventure. |
