Upon arrival at Tribhuvan International Airport, our team will warmly welcome you and assist with your transfer to the hotel. After check-in and refreshment, you will have some time to rest. In the evening, we will take you on a short walk around Kathmandu’s lively streets to get oriented, followed by a welcome dinner with your climbing guide. Overnight at hotel.

Today, we explore Kathmandu’s cultural and historical highlights, including UNESCO World Heritage Sites such as Pashupatinath Temple, Boudhanath Stupa, Swayambhunath (Monkey Temple), and Kathmandu Durbar Square.
