About This Trip

Into the Wild

Discover a Nepal of ancient courtyards, sacred temples and vibrant city streets, followed by quiet rivers, open grasslands and the remarkable wildlife of the Terai.

Jungle & Heritage brings together two very different landscapes in one thoughtfully paced journey. Begin in Kathmandu, where centuries of history live alongside the rhythms of modern Nepali life. Wander through historic squares, discover sacred sites and take in the architecture and craftsmanship that make the Kathmandu Valley so distinctive.

Then leave the city behind and travel south to Chitwan, where the pace changes with the landscape. Spend your days exploring the national park, gliding along the Rapti River and discovering the region’s wildlife and Tharu heritage. Between safari experiences, enjoy time to unwind in the peaceful surroundings of your jungle lodge.

Designed for travellers who want to experience more of Nepal without rushing from place to place, this journey balances cultural discovery with time in nature, with comfortable stays and considered experiences along the way.

One memorable introduction to Nepal.
