If you hold Indian citizenship, you do not need a visa to enter Nepal. You must carry a valid passport or voter ID (Aadhar is not valid for international travel). These documents are checked at the border or airport.
The best months are October to April, when the skies are clear, and temperatures are comfortable. Nagarkot and Pokhara offer the best mountain views in autumn and spring, while Chitwan is lush and active for wildlife sightings during winter and early spring.
This itinerary offers a well-balanced pace—mountain retreats, scenic drives, and cultural stops without rushing. Long drive days (like Nagarkot to Pokhara or Pokhara to Chitwan) are scenic and broken up with interesting stops or overnight stays.
Yes, Chitwan National Park safaris are led by licensed naturalists. Jeep safaris are the most recommended for wildlife safety and conservation. Elephant-back safaris are still offered, but many lodges now encourage ethical alternatives like canoe rides and jungle walks.
The optional Everest flight experience gives you a front-row seat to Mount Everest and the Himalayan range from 25,000 feet, weather permitting. Flights last about 50–60 minutes and often include cockpit viewing opportunities.
Absolutely. The itinerary includes gentle activities, cultural experiences, and comfortable accommodations. It suits families, honeymooners, and older travellers who prefer beautiful landscapes and soft adventures over strenuous treks.
The currency is Nepalese Rupee (NPR). Carry some cash in smaller denominations for rural areas. ATMs are widely available in Kathmandu and Pokhara. INR notes up to ₹100 are accepted informally, but larger denominations may be rejected.
Most of the itinerary stays below 2,000 meters, so altitude sickness is not a concern. However, you may experience temperature variations, especially in Nagarkot. Carry any personal medications, and drink only bottled or purified water during the trip.
