Trip Introduction
Overview of Pokhara Lumbini Tour Package
Visitors who want to experience Nepal’s cultural activities all year can go on tours of the Pokhara Lumbini Tour. The most interesting parts of this trip will be the natural areas around Pokhara, especially the Lumbini areas, where we will see where Lord Siddhartha Gautam (BUDDHA) was born.
People will start their trip in Pokhara and go all the way to Nepal’s beautiful places, including Lumbini. The Pokhara tour will focus on the area’s beautiful spots, such as Phewa Lake and Mahendra Cave, lookout points with views of the surrounding hills, the area’s dense and beautiful forests, and other natural features.
As we walk into Lumbini, you will get a great sense of all the different possible worlds. Everything in Lumbini is strongly religious, with Buddhists being the majority, even though India is mostly Hindu. Lumbini is known as “The Birthplace of Buddha.” People called him “Gautama Buddha” because he started Buddhism. Since this is where Buddha was born, it is seen as a symbol of peace and the place where Buddhism began.
Most people who visit Nepal take the Pokhara Lumbini Tour. It is a tour of two cities. The schedule has been set up to include good days. Our team can plan the best trip for you by adding the city (like Kathmandu Tours) of your choice once you tell us about your custom itinerary.

Thank You for very good memories to take home with us!
The tour was very well looked after and informed on a wide variety of Nepalese facts/customs and life/culture. Also the sightseeing places we were well informed by both the guide and the driver. We were given time to see things at the pace that suited us.
Stops during travel gave us an interesting insight into life in Nepal. Stooping at small local places or for tea & snacks.
The new Crystal Hotel is also very quiet and far from the busy area. The mountain views were excellent from our hotel.
We would thoroughly recommend this type of holiday and have some very good memories to take home with us of Nepal and its people.

It was nice to have everything taken care of for me!
The hotel in Kathmandu was very nice but it was a bit cold at night. The Kathmandu Valley sightseeing was lovely. I wish I had known in advance that I needed to pay to enter the various heritage sites.
The trip guide and other crew members were excellent and very friendly. They were very kind and ready to help others. It was nice to have everything taken care of for me. Well organized!
