As you arrive at Tribhuvan International Airport, you'll be warmly greeted by a local representative and comfortably transferred to your hotel in Kathmandu. A traditional welcome drink awaits, followed by a tour briefing that sets the tone for the days ahead. The pace today is intentionally gentle, allowing you to acclimatise and settle into the rhythm of Nepal. Step out briefly if you wish; the streets of Kathmandu are a sensory feast. The scent of incense mingles with the sound of temple bells, and the medieval architecture of the valley's ancient cities reveals itself around every corner. Prayer flags flutter from rooftops, and the distant outline of the Himalayas hovers at the edge of the skyline. The rest of the day is free for personal activities. Whether you explore the nearby lanes, browse the colourful markets, or simply rest after your journey, the evening settles quietly over the valley. Retire for the night knowing that tomorrow brings the artisan city of Bhaktapur and the Himalayan heights of Nagarkot.
