Nepal Holidays

Requirements to enter Nepal are relatively straightforward and you’ll be pleased to know there are no mandatory vaccinations needed. Nepal is home to just one international airport with direct flights available from India, UAE, and South-East Asia. Most UK flights have connections at Doha or Dubai.

Several factors will determine the cost of your tour of Nepal such as the duration of your stay and the activities included in your trip. You could be looking at prices anywhere from around £1,629 to £5,399.

Although a small country, Nepal is packed full of things to do during your holiday here. Some of the most popular things to do in Nepal include:

• Trekking up to Everest Base Camp
• Visiting Chitwan National Park
• Looking for spiritual enlightenment in Kathmandu
• Going to the birthplace of Buddha in Lumbini
• Rafting along the Himalayan Rivers
  
  We incorporate some of the best things to do into our Nepal adventure holidays, so tap on any of the tours above to see what you’ll get up to when you visit this incredible country.

Temperatures are warm throughout most of the year as they remain between 15°C and 29°C. If you’re trekking up to Everest Base Camp, however, apart from the summer months, temperatures are often well below freezing.

Nepal has a monsoon season between June and August too, which brings rain and humid temperatures during your stay. Lightweight waterproofs are essential for those visiting in these months.

You must have the following to gain access to Nepal from the UK as per government guidance:

• A passport with at least six months’ validity
• Covid-19 vaccination certificate or negative PCR test from no longer than 72 hours before entry
• A tourist visa
  
  Getting to Nepal is relatively straightforward from the UK with just one transfer required. You can fly from many airports across the UK to places like Qatar and Dubai, where you’ll change to a flight to Kathmandu, Nepal. You may not need to organise any of this travel yourself, however, as we can provide flights as part of our unrivalled service when booking adventure holidays to Nepal.

It generally takes no less than 13 hours to get to Nepal from the UK. This will require you to travel on a flight from London to Doha and then from Doha to Nepal.

October and November is the best time of year to go to Nepal. This avoids the monsoon season, which concludes in August, and you should get clear blue skies and pleasant warm temperatures during your stay. This means that you’ll be able to get the most out of your adventure holiday to Nepal without excessive heat and rainfall getting in the way of your plans.

Nepal holidays can be cheap for tourists, so long as you know where to go for your food and goods. On average, you can expect to pay as little as 100NPR per meal, which is equivalent to just 60p in the UK. To get the best value for money when visiting here, use our top tips below:

• Eat at local restaurants rather than international chains or tourist spots
• Use public transport instead of taxis
• Don’t shop in touristy places and instead, head to less busy locations off the beaten track for more authentic goods
• Learn how to barter! This may save you a fortune throughout your stay

Nepal can be a very humid country, so you’ll want light clothes that cover your skin from the sun but are breathable. You can expect to do a lot of walking around here as well, so comfortable shoes are a must! If you’re climbing up to Everest Base Camp, then warm clothes are a necessity as temperatures can get as low as -17°C once you reach it.

You may experience rain when you visit Nepal too, so waterproofs are necessary. This is especially true if you’re heading here between June and August as this is the monsoon season.
