Upon your arrival at Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu, you will be warmly welcomed by our representative who will assist you with your transfer to the hotel. Spend the day resting and acclimatizing to the altitude and new environment.

The day ends with an overnight stay at your hotel in Kathmandu, where you can prepare for the journey ahead.

Early the next morning, you will either take a scenic 25-minute flight or a comfortable drive lasting about 6 to 7 hours to Pokhara, a beautiful lakeside city nestled against the backdrop of the Annapurna mountain range. The flight offers breathtaking aerial views of the Himalayas, while the road trip lets you enjoy the changing landscapes of Nepal’s hills and valleys. Once in Pokhara, you will check into your hotel and have the afternoon at leisure. This is a great opportunity to explore the bustling Lakeside area, take a boat ride on Phewa Lake, or wander through local markets to get a taste of the region’s relaxed lifestyle.

On day three, you will catch a morning flight from Pokhara to Jomsom, a gateway town to the Mustang region. The short flight is known for its spectacular views of the snow-capped peaks and the deep Kali Gandaki Gorge below. After arriving in Jomsom, you will embark on a 1.5 to 2-hour drive to Muktinath, a revered pilgrimage site sacred to both Hindus and Buddhists. Upon arrival, you can explore the Muktinath Temple complex, famed for its 108 holy water spouts and the unique natural surroundings. The sacred atmosphere, combined with panoramic mountain vistas, creates a spiritual and awe-inspiring experience. You will spend the night in a cozy guesthouse or lodge in Muktinath.

The fourth day is dedicated to fully immersing yourself in the spiritual and cultural richness of Muktinath and its surroundings. Start by performing the ritual purification at the temple’s 108 water spouts, believed to cleanse one’s sins. Afterward, visit the nearby village of Kagbeni, which offers a glimpse into traditional Tibetan culture with its ancient monasteries, narrow alleys, and local markets. The village’s serene environment and the stark beauty of the Mustang region’s landscape make for an unforgettable experience.
