Spot one-horned rhinos, spotted deer, and (with luck) Bengal tigers on jeep and canoe safaris through Chitwan National Park, staying at a jungle lodge on the edge of the park.

Explore Kathmandu Durbar Square, the sacred Pashupatinath Temple, the Boudhanath Stupa, and the medieval city of Bhaktapur on this culturally rich four-day tour, led by expert local historians.

The Trishuli is the most popular rafting river in Nepal for good reason: warm water, forgiving rapids and scenic gorges only three hours from Kathmandu. This overnight trip combines a full day on the water with a night in a riverside camp.

A certified guide leads every raft, with a safety kayaker alongside, and all gear is provided. No experience is needed — just a willingness to get wet.

• Grade II–III rapids with names like "Ladies Delight" and "House Rock"

• Overnight riverside camp with a bonfire dinner
