Nepal Holidays

With the soaring peaks of the Himalayas running all the way down its northern flank, Nepal is often called ‘the roof of the world.’ Exploring this spiritual mountain destination, with its dazzling lakes, vertiginous rice terraces and staggering panoramas, should be top of any traveller’s to do list.

A holiday in Nepal enthrals and excites on multiple levels – from those lofty, snowy crags all the way down to the low lying plains. The lush, sultry jungles of the Terai are home to National Parks, where rare species like one-horned rhino and Bengal tiger still roam, and the trees are filled with vibrant birdlife.

Wander around markets discovering regional flavours, and get lost in cities full of heady aromas, chaotic colour and cacophonous noise. Enjoy a taste of local life, and chance encounters at every turn.

“Nepal holds a special place in my travel memories as somewhere I've made lasting connections and found a real sense of space and calm. It's a country I'll return to again and again, for sure.”

Heritage & culture

Swayambhunath with colorful flags flying in the sky

A string of UNESCO-listed ancient cities runs through the country, where time really feels like it has stood still. Bhaktapur, Patan and the vibrant capital Kathmandu are stuffed with serene, wing-roofed temples and incense-wreathed shrines dedicated to Buddhist, Hindu and Animist gods.

Don’t be surprised to find yourself caught up in an exuberant festival procession, as there’s something happening almost every month of the year!

Looming high above everything, and utterly unmissable, are those amazing mountains, and – though trekking in Nepal can be an incredible experience – you don’t have to trek to enjoy the Himalayan scenery.

Places like Bandipur with its cobbled streets and ancient verandas, and Pokhara set on a serene lake and humming with a backpacker vibe are both perfect for kicking back for a few days and soaking up the views. A journey through Nepal is a kaleidoscope of sights, sounds and aromas. You’ll find it completely unique, and utterly unforgettable.

Delight in the details

It’s easy to see Nepal as a detination of immense scale and lofty heights, and there’s no denying that those world-famous peaks on each horizon certainly take your breath away…

However, if you bring your focus back to ground level, you’ll discover a destination with many intricate layers. Wander in the footsteps of rhinos and tigers in Chitwan National Park, discover real local connection during a stay in a Community Homestay Network property, and discover delicious new flavours feasting on everything from momos to lamb curry.

Highly Recommend Selective Asia

Have been to Asia with Selective Asia twice now, and we can't fault them. We had the most amazing holiday staying in 6 different locations throughout Thailand. Selective Asia did us proud by giving us a well thought out itinerary. The accommodations were first class. Our private guide called James was very knowledgable and made our holiday very memorable.

Susan Bartlett, Thailand

Personalised and spot on journey

Personalised service all the way up to departure and then throughout via on the ground help and advice in country as well. Ideal.

Another fantastic trip with Selective Asia

We’ve been on 5 trips to the Far East with Selective Asia over 17 years with the same consultant (Lionel). They take the time to tailor the holiday individually with invaluable local knowledge and once again got it spot on. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

Our trip to Japan was outstanding

We had had several discussions with Andrew, our agent, before booking the trip and he incorporated all the activities we were interested in plus recommending other activities that he knew we would be interested in. Much of our trip was self guided and SA provide an excellent app to help with this. It was intuitive, easy to use and had the option to be able to contact someone locally if necessary. The whole trip was seamless and managed at a thoroughly professional yet friendly level. I would travel with this company again (we have travelled with them before.)

Heather, Japan

Fantastic holiday

Using Selective Asia took all the stress out of booking and organising the trip ourselves as we were travelling around the country. Selective Asia were really responsive to our needs and created our perfect honeymoon holiday. They were available whenever we had questions or needed some help. I would highly recommend using their service!

Alice, Sri Lanka

Great planning and organisation, coupled with an amazing experience with the local guide and driver. Everything about the holiday was magical.
