Day 1 Australia (or New Zealand) - Kathmandu, Nepal

Your Nepalese adventure begins today! Board your international flight to Kathmandu, the vibrant capital nestled in the Himalayas.

On arrival at Kathmandu Airport, you’ll receive a warm traditional welcome with garlanding before being met by a tour representative. You’ll then be transferred to your hotel for check-in. As you settle in, you’ll receive a Welcome Folder containing important tour documents, and your representative will provide a briefing on the journey ahead.

Kathmandu, the bustling heart of Nepal, is the country’s largest city and sits at the centre of the Kathmandu Valley. It’s surrounded by two historic sister cities: Patan (Lalitpur), just 5km to the southeast, and Bhaktapur, 14km to the east. Beyond being the nation’s capital, Kathmandu is the headquarters of Nepal’s Central Region, offering a fascinating blend of ancient culture and modern energy.

Please note: Due to flight schedules, some departures may occur the night before (Day 0). If this applies to you, your final documents, available at least six weeks before departure, will confirm your flight details.

Day 2 Kathmandu

After breakfast, set out on a guided city tour to explore Kathmandu's rich history and culture.

Your first stop is Kathmandu Durbar Square, a stunning complex of palaces, courtyards and temples built between the 12th and 18th centuries. Once the seat of the ancient Malla kings, this UNESCO World Heritage-listed site is the heart of the city's social, religious and urban life. One of its most fascinating features is a 17th-century stone inscription embedded in the palace wall, written in 15 languages. Another fascinating sight is the Temple of the Living Goddess, Kumari, where you can catch a glimpse of Nepal’s revered living deity.

Continue to Swayambhunath Stupa, one of Nepal’s holiest Buddhist sites, atop a hill overlooking the Kathmandu Valley. Also known as Sengu or the Monkey Temple, this sacred site is steeped in legend, with its origins tied to the valley's creation. As you explore, take in the breathtaking views and soak up the spiritual energy of this UNESCO-listed landmark.

Optional Tour: Boudhanath Stupa & Patan City
For those eager to explore more, an optional tour this afternoon will take you to two of Kathmandu’s most significant cultural and religious sites.

Standing 36 metres tall, this awe-inspiring structure is a masterpiece of stupa design, its massive white dome crowned with the ever-watchful eyes of Buddha. Also known as Khasti, the area surrounding Boudhanath is home to over 45 Buddhist monasteries, making it a major centre for Tibetan Buddhism in Nepal.
Continue to Patan City, renowned for its incredible concentration of temples and palaces. At the heart of it all is Patan Durbar Square, where the stunning Krishna Mandir, a 17th-century stone temple, stands as a testament to the city’s artistic heritage. Its intricate carvings depict legendary battles from the Ramayana and Mahabharata. Other highlights include the Tusha Hiti water spout, Sundari Chowk, Taleju Temple, and Keshav Narayan Chowk.

Other important information

TOUR GUIDE VS. TOUR LEADER
Tour Guide:
Often locals with intimate knowledge of an area, its culture, and history. Their role entails providing commentary, routing the tour, and seeing that people have a good time. They are a licensed, qualified expert who supplies specific information on the history, art, architecture and culture of the city/village/attraction where they are guiding the tour. The guide meets the group at the required place and leaves it at the end of the tour; they do not travel with the group.

Tour Leader:
An experienced person tasked with ensuring the smooth operation of tours, as well as providing practical support to passengers throughout the whole trip. Their role primarily includes assisting with accommodation, transportation between locations, and communication with tour guides at each stop. A tour leader may provide general guidance around a city or village and offer information on the place visited on the bus. However, they are not required to have specific art, architecture, or historical knowledge. They are not allowed to provide a guided tour or commentary of a city/village/attraction once there and, if caught doing so, can be fined.

Please note: Tour leaders/guides are not a standard inclusion in all travel offers. Tour leaders/guides will only be made available when required to enhance the experience of the destination featured.

You must be a Qantas Frequent Flyer member to earn points. A joining fee may apply. Membership and points are subject to the Qantas Frequent Flyer program terms and conditions.

To earn Qantas Points with Qantas Tours, Members will be required to provide a valid Frequent Flyer number and last name at checkout. Only the lead traveller, the primary contact for the booking, will earn 3 Qantas Points per AU$1 spent (including GST) on eligible holiday packages. Qantas Points will not be earned and cannot be redeemed on any amounts payable directly to the hotel. Conditions apply. Qantas Points will be credited to a member's account up to 8 weeks after tour completion. Qantas Points will not be earned on cancelled bookings.

In addition to the 3 Qantas Points per AU$1 spent, each Frequent Flyer member who enters their Qantas Frequent Flyer number into the booking will also earn Status Credits and Qantas Points on the flight component of the package. The amount you earn depends on your flights, the operating airline, fare class and member status.
