The revered figure of Lord Buddha, often termed the ‘illumination of Asia,’ originated from Lumbini in Nepal’s southern region, establishing Nepal as an esteemed pilgrimage site for Buddhists worldwide. The Pashupatinath Temple stands as the most hallowed Hindu temple in Nepal and is ranked among the top four essential locations for adherents of Shiva globally.

Tailored Nepal Trip with Himalayan Sanctuary Adventure - We had the most incredible experience with Himalayan Sanctuary Adventure. From the moment we reached out to them, they were on top of everything. We mentioned that we wanted a bigger car because we knew the drives could be long and bumpy. And they made it happen! It made such a difference in our comfort level. Now, let's talk about the highlights of our trip. First, there was the mountain flight. Seeing the Himalayas from above was surreal. And then there was the Annapurna mountain range. The sheer size of those peaks left us speechless. We also had the chance to go on a safari at Chitwan National Park where we got to see crocodiles and rhinoceroses. Lastly, exploring Patan Durbar Square was a delight, with its ancient temples and traditional architecture. We're so glad we chose Himalayan Sanctuary Adventure for our first trip to Nepal. The owner was so quick to respond and made sure everything was going smoothly throughout our entire journey. Highly recommended!

TRULY SATISFYING TOURS - I was very pleased with this company! Prem organised everything so well, we had no issues at all during our trips. From Kathmandu to Chitwan to Pokhara we have seen it all. The landscape is beautiful and the people are lovely everywhere you go. Chitwan and Pokhara is a MUST!! We went for tiger watch and actually saw a tiger :-) Did many tours with this company and they were all very satisfying. We felt cared for and safe, and we were all very happy with everything PREM organised for us. Trustworthy company and genuine staff. Do not hesitate to book with them!
