Nepal has a Monsoonal climate with four main seasons. Autumn and spring are the two most favourable seasons for visiting Nepal. Autumn (September to early December) brings in clear weather with sunny days and warm nights. Spring (March to May) with occasional rain falls. From June to September, is the monsoon season. Uncomfortable time to visit as the climate of Nepal at this time of year brings about hot weather and rain falls almost every day.

Days 1-4: Kathmandu
You will start your adventure in Katmandu, full of culture, history and an incredible lineage of artistry. The city has a buzzing energy which at times can feel overwhelming but your guide will be at your side making sure that you see the best side of the city. During your three nights here take the opportunity to explore Kathmandu Durbar Square & Patan Durbar Square which hold beautiful examples of traditional Nepalese architecture. For those that are interested in Buddhism we highly suggest a visit to Swayambhunath and Boudhanath Stupa, some of the most revered sites in Kathamandu.
If you are really looking for something special in Kathmandu, an early morning flight around Everest is always a highlight, as you will be able to see most of the highest mountains in the world before breakfast!
