Nagarkot Sunrise Tour
Options
When making your booking, you'll be able to choose between the private tour to Nagarkot you'd prefer from the following options:
4-Hour Tour
It may be painful getting up at 4:30 am in Kathmandu, but the early rise will be well worth it, as this is the perfect time to set off on a journey that will captivate you forever...
After being picked up from your hotel, you'll head towards the east of Nepal. After a 28 km (17 miles) journey, you'll arrive in Nagarkot, a small village in the Bhaktapur District, located over 2000 m (6561 feet) above sea level.
Here, you'll enjoy views over what is considered to be one of the area's most picturesque locations. Nagarkot is stunning at any time of day, but seeing the rural valley with its Himalayan mountain backdrop in the light of a spectacular sunrise is a magical image that you'll remember for the rest of your life.
As the sun's rays begin to illuminate Nepal, the tallest peaks of the Himalayan mountain range will become visible. You'll see Annapurnas, Manaslu, Ganesh Himal, Dorje Lakpa and of course Mount Everest, the world's highest mountain, at 29,029 feet, or 8848 metres, tall. In the valley, you'll also be able to make out the Tibetan-bordering region of Langtang and the area's vast green rice terraces.
After 4 hours together, we'll return back to Katmandu.
6-Hour Tour
At the scheduled time, we'll collect you from your hotel in Katmandu and follow the same itinerary as the above tour. After admiring the views of the Himalayas at Nagarkot, we'll continue the tour around the Buddha Peace Park.
There, we'll find a small statue of a Buddha in a garden filled with decorations and plants. Then, we'll make our way towards the Changunarayan Temple, one of the oldest temples in the country which dates back to the Licchavi period in Nepal's history. The temple is made up of beautiful stone and wood carvings, designed in a traditional Nepalese style, and located at the top of a hill. Photo moment!
After 6 hours, we'll make our return journey back to Katmandu.
