Our favourite routes through Nepal

Nepal is synonymous with mountain trekking and boasts some of the most impressive, challenging hikes in the world, but there’s so much more to this land-locked, Himalayan country then trekking. Culture and religion are the bedrock of Nepal and our Ancient Cities of Nepal itinerary delves deeper into the country’s rich, ancient heritage.

From the outside, the neighbouring Himalayan kingdoms of Nepal, Tibet and Bhutan appear to be fairly similar, however dig deep (20-days should do it) and you’ll discover a fascinating region of diverse cultures, distinct traditions and contrasting landscapes. If you have the time, it’s well worth incorporating all three destinations into one memorable trip. Step in Selective Asia…!

Luxury is not necessarily a word that springs to mind when considering a holiday to Nepal. However, the country boasts a smattering of characterful properties offering top-class accommodation and exceptional personalised service: Luxe Nepal travels between four of our favourite. This well-balanced 10-day itinerary has been designed to include plenty of time to appreciate each hotel’s facilities, as well as explore their scenic surrounds.

This 18-day journey from Tibet to Nepal is a road trip like no other! There’s no denying there are long journeys involved and overnight accommodation is simple and un-glamorous. However, the spectacular scenery (and it is genuinely awesome) makes it all worthwhile and there will be plenty of opportunity to get out into the mountains and stretch your legs.

After much debate here at Selective Asia HQ we’ve agreed that our Simply itineraries are the perfect in-depth introduction to a country. They showcase the country’s main highlights and ensure you don't miss a thing. Simple!
