Nepal is known for trekking, and the best time to explore this country is usually spring and autumn. Well, that's right. Given the perfect weather conditions and climate, these two seasons are the best time to visit Nepal. But you can still travel to Nepal in the summer.
Introducing our special summer tour package in Nepal, meticulously crafted for an enjoyable and adventurous trip in the summer. Our reliable team expertly manages and operates this tour, ensuring a hassle-free experience. As we have monsoon and summer hand in hand, we have carefully designed the itinerary to accommodate any possible change in weather, providing you with a worry-free journey.
Kathmandu is a valley, so summer in this city is not as scorching as in the country's Terai part (plains). The temperature stays under 30° C-32° C on sweltering days. However, in Terai, the temperature goes above 40° C, which makes it unbearable to be in that part of the country. During the tour, we have a jungle safari in Chitwan National Park, part of the Terai region. You will experience the hot climate to some extent.
Trust us: your time in Chitwan will be the most thrilling and unique of the entire trip. In Kathmandu, we have a full-day guided tour during which you will explore monuments like Monkey Temple, Pashupatinath Temple, Boudhanath Stupa, and Kathmandu Durbar Square.
