This group tour departs from Kathmandu to visit both the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Bhaktapur Durbar Square and Nagarkot, a famous Himalayan viewpoint, in a single day. In Bhaktapur, walk with a local guide through the temples and royal courtyards of a medieval city, including the 55-Window Palace, Nyatapola Temple, the Golden Gate, and Pottery Square, learning about its history and craftsmanship. Then head up to the hills of Nagarkot at 2,175 m to enjoy Himalayan views that, on clear days, stretch from Mount Everest to Langtang and Ganesh Himal. Hotel pickup and a light packed lunch are included for a comfortable trip.
After a shared pickup from your hotel in the Kathmandu Valley by electric tourist vehicle, drive about 1 hour to Bhaktapur. As this is a group tour, pickup may be slightly delayed while other participants are collected from several hotels.
Spend about 2 hours walking with your guide through Bhaktapur, one of the best-preserved medieval cities in the Kathmandu Valley. Pass centuries-old temples, courtyards, and alleys lined with traditional Newar houses, and visit the 55-Window Palace, Nyatapola Temple, the Golden Gate, Dattatreya Square, and Pottery Square, where artisans still shape pottery by hand.
A drive of about 40 minutes from Bhaktapur brings you to the hill village of Nagarkot at 2,175 m, where you'll stay for about 1 hour.
