Trip overview

Nepal has no shortage of honeymoon packages. But most of them follow the same path: Kathmandu, Pokhara, and maybe a short trek. This Himalayan luxury honeymoon package is different. It takes you deep into Nepal's wild side first, then brings you back for classic mountain romance. The result is a luxury trip that feels personal, not packaged.

Your journey starts in Kathmandu, then heads to Bardiya National Park, one of the country's least visited yet most rewarding wildlife reserves. Here you'll track tigers and rhinos on a private jeep safari and glide down the Karnali River in a jungle canoe, just the two of you. From there, you'll fly to Rara Lake, Nepal's largest and most pristine alpine lake. Few travelers make it this far, which is exactly what makes it special. Think quiet mornings, clear water, and mountains that seem to belong only to you.

The second half of this Nepal honeymoon package shifts into something softer. In Pokhara, you'll toast yourselves with champagne on a cruise across Fewa Lake, take a scenic flight over the Himalayas and indulge in a couple's spa. Enjoy sweeping sunset views of the Himalayan range in your last days in Nagarkot, before a cultural stop in Bhaktapur, one of Nepal’s best-preserved medieval cities.

Every stop on this luxury honeymoon Nepal itinerary is built around comfort and connection. You'll stay in 5-star suites and villas, enjoy private dining, and travel with expert guides who handle the logistics so you don't have to think about a thing. It's 14 days that move from wild adventure to quiet romance, with nothing rushed and nothing missed.

Trip itinerary

Your Himalayan luxury honeymoon package kicks off the moment you land at Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu. A private car will be waiting to drive you the short 20- to 30-minute, 6- to 8-kilometer journey (depending on traffic) to your 5-star hotel. When you are settled, the rest of the day is yours to relax and shake off any travel fatigue. In the evening you’ll be welcomed by our concierge team with a small gift and an overview of the days to come. The first night in the Kathmandu Valley is a relaxed, unhurried start to your Nepal honeymoon package, allowing you to settle into the journey before the real adventure begins.

After your breakfast, you will start your full-day Kathmandu heritage tour with your private guide and vehicle to visit the valley's most loved UNESCO heritage sites. Morning takes us to Kathmandu Durbar Square, just 3 to 4 kilometers away from your hotel. Centuries-old palaces and temples here speak to Nepal’s royal past. It is a short 15-minute drive from there to Swayambhunath, or the Monkey Temple, perched on the top of a hill with panoramic views of the whole valley. In the afternoon, proceed to Pashupatinath Temple, one of the holiest Hindu sites in the world. Continue to Boudhanath Stupa, one of the largest stupas in Asia and a center of Tibetan Buddhist culture. The day's drive is about 15-20 kilometers across the valley with lots of walking at each stop. This day is the grand and immersive beginning of your Himalayan honeymoon package. You will feel history, spirituality and culture before heading into the wild the next morning.

Highlights of the Day:

  • Heritage walk of Kathmandu Durbar Square

  • Monkey Temple (Swayambhunath) hilltop views

  • Pashupatinath Temple, a holy Hindu pilgrimage spot

  • Boudhanath Stupa: Center of Tibetan Buddhist Culture

This morning you will transfer to the domestic terminal for your flight to Nepalgunj. The flight takes 45 minutes to an hour and takes you from the mountains into the lowland Terai region of Nepal. On your arrival you will be transferred by private vehicle to Bardiya National Park which is about 90-100 km away and takes about 3 hours to reach. You pass through small villages and open countryside and you get a real feel of rural Nepal as you go. By the time you arrive at your jungle lodge, you will already be feeling the change from city life to wilderness. The rest of the day is kept easy for you to settle in, have a relaxed lunch and prepare for the safaris ahead. This day is the real introduction to the wild side of your Himalayan luxury honeymoon package taking you from culture and heritage to nature and adventure.

Highlights of the Day:

  • Incredibly beautiful domestic flight from Kathmandu to Nepalgunj

  • Terai Lowlands, which are located in Nepal

  • You are about to arrive at your Bardiya jungle lodge.

Today is the day of the wild. After an early breakfast, you’ll take a private jeep safari deep into Bardiya National Park, one of the least crowded and most rewarding wildlife reserves in Nepal. The park covers an area of nearly 968 sq km, and your morning drive can itself cover 25 to 30 km while passing through dense sal forests and open grasslands. You may spot the Bengal tigers, one-horned rhinos and wild elephants, as well as over 400 species of birds that live in this park. Your expert naturalist guide will show you how to spot tracks and signs long before you see the animals themselves. Back at the lodge for lunch, there’s a second round in the afternoon safari session, this time focusing on the riverbanks along the Karnali, where the wildlife tends to gather as the day cools down. A full day of adventure, this experience is one of the most memorable parts of your luxury honeymoon in the Himalayas, showing a raw, untouched side of Nepal that most travelers don't experience.

Highlights of the Day:

  • Morning private jeep safari through the forests and grasslands of Bardiya

  • Chance sightings of Bengal tigers, rhinos and wild elephants

  • Afternoon riverside safari on the Karnali River

  • Birdwatching at the park’s diverse habitats with a guide

Your second day in Bardiya is a bit more relaxed, mixing water and culture with the wildlife experience. After breakfast, take a private jungle canoe ride on the Karnali River, drifting gently along an 8 to 10 kilometer stretch. It's a slow-paced float that lets you spot crocodiles, otters and river birds without the noise of a motor and often brings you closer to wildlife than a jeep ever could. Later in the day you will visit a nearby Tharu village, one of the oldest indigenous communities in Nepal. Here you get a real taste of Tharu homes, farming customs and everyday life. In the evening you have a chance to see a traditional cultural performance. This day concludes your stay at Bardiya National Park with a good blend of adventure and authentic local experiences, adding real depth to your Nepal honeymoon package before heading towards the mountains.

Highlights of the Day:

  • Karnali River Private Jungle Canoe Ride

  • Wildlife to spot on the water, including crocodiles and river birds

  • Tharu Village Tour (Traditional)

  • Tharu cultural show in the evening

Today you will leave the jungle and head towards the mountains. After breakfast you will be driven back in a private vehicle to the airstrip and take a scenic flight to Talcha Airport, the gateway to Rara Lake, the largest and highest alpine lake in Nepal. The flight takes between 45 minutes and an hour and provides impressive views as the landscape changes from lowland forest to high-altitude terrain. From Talcha, it's a short drive or gentle walk of about 3 to 4 kilometers to reach the lake itself, sitting at an elevation of nearly 3,000 meters. As you arrive, you'll immediately notice how few people make it out this far, which is exactly what makes the setting feel so untouched. The rest of the day is free to rest, acclimatize and just absorb the surroundings of pine forests and clear blue water. This is a real turning point in your Himalayan luxury honeymoon package as you exchange wildlife adventure for quiet, high-altitude serenity. Today's Highlights:

  • Scenic mountain flight from Nepalgunj to Talcha Airport

  • First views of Rara Lake, Nepal's largest alpine lake

  • Short scenic drive or walk from the airstrip to the lakeside

  • Relaxed evening to acclimatize amid pine forests and mountain air

This is a whole day to enjoy one of the most peaceful corners of Nepal. After a leisurely breakfast by the lake you will set out on a guided nature walk along the lakeshore, walking 6-7 kilometers through the pine and juniper forest that surrounds the lake. The trail offers changing views of Rara Lake at every turn, along with a wonderful chance of spotting Himalayan birds and, if you're lucky, red pandas in the surrounding forest. Later in the morning, you'll head out for a boat excursion across the lake itself, drifting over water so clear you can often see several meters down. In the afternoon, the pace slows further with time set aside for private couple's moments by the shore, whether that means a quiet picnic, photography, or simply sitting with the mountains reflected in the water. Evenings here bring cool, crisp air and some of the clearest night skies in Nepal. This day gives your Himalayan honeymoon package a rare kind of stillness that's difficult to find anywhere else in the country.

Highlights of the Day:

  • Guided nature walk along lakeside through pine forest

  • Boat trip across the crystal-clear waters of Lake Rara

  • Private couple’s time at the shore

  • Clear night skies for star gazing

The last morning at Rara Lake starts early, well before dawn. A short walk of 1-2 km will bring you to a nearby viewpoint above the lake where you will watch the sunrise paint the water and surrounding peaks in soft shades of gold. It’s a quiet, personal moment that makes the work of getting this far into Nepal feel completely worthwhile. After breakfast at the lodge, you will be transferred to Talcha Airport for your flight home. You will connect through Nepalgunj and continue on to Pokhara, Nepal’s lake city and one of its most popular honeymoon destinations. The total airtime for the day is about 2.5 to 3 hours – with a total distance of about 350 kilometers. Arrive in Pokhara late afternoon and check in to your resort. The rest of the evening is free to relax and enjoy views of the mountains around the city. Today you will leave the quiet remoteness of the alpine and enter the softer, more romantic scenery that defines the second half of your Nepal honeymoon package.

Highlights of the Day:

  • Sunset View Point Hike over Rara Lake

  • Scenic return flight from Nepalgunj to Pokhara

  • Arrive and check in at your lakeside resort in Pokhara

  • Free evening off to relax with mountain views

Today is dedicated to the romantic heart of Pokhara. After a relaxed breakfast, you'll head to the shores of Fewa Lake, just 2 to 3 kilometers from most lakeside resorts, for a private boat cruise with champagne included. Drifting across the calm water, you'll get postcard views of the Annapurna range reflected on the surface, along with a close up look at Tal Barahi Temple, a small pagoda-style shrine sitting on its own island in the middle of the lake. The cruise is normally around 4 to 5 km and is at a slow pace so there is plenty of time to just enjoy the moment together. In the afternoon you are free to explore Pokhara’s lakeside area at leisure, browsing local shops and cafes along the water, or relax back at the resort. As darkness descends, the last light of day often outlines the mountains surrounding Pokhara, creating one of Nepal's most-photographed sunsets. Today you’re invited to slow down and get in sync on your Himalayan luxury honeymoon package, with a rhythm that’s all about intimacy and connection.

Highlights of the Day:

  • Private boat ride on Lake Fewa

  • Trip to Tal Barahi Temple on the Lake Island

  • Leisure time to wander the lakeside cafes and shops of Pokhara

  • Views of sunset over the Annapurna range

Today you are transferred by private vehicle to Pokhara Airport for a scenic Himalayan flight, one of the signature experiences of this package. The flight lasts around 30 to 40 minutes and takes you close to the Annapurna range, with views of peaks like Machapuchare and Annapurna I from just a few kilometers away, far closer than you'd get from the ground. After landing, you'll return to the resort for a relaxed breakfast before the day shifts into a more cultural rhythm. Late morning, you'll visit the International Mountain Museum, about 5 to 6 kilometers from central Pokhara, which gives good context on the region's peaks, climbing history, and local mountain communities. In the afternoon, you'll stop by Davis Falls and the nearby Gupteshwor Cave, both within a short 10 minute drive of each other, offering a mix of natural scenery and a bit of local legend. Back at the resort in the evening, you have free time to relax by the lake. Your Nepal luxury honeymoon itinerary is enriched with a blend of mountain views and cultural context, giving it real depth and balancing adventure with education.

Highlights of the Day:

  • Private scenic flight over the Annapurna range.

  • The International Mountain Museum

  • Visit Davis Falls and Gupteshwor Cave

  • Afternoon at leisure to relax at Fewa Lake

Today is a blend of adventure and well deserved relaxation. After breakfast, you will drive to Sarangkot, a 13 to 15 kilometer drive from central Pokhara and a 30 to 40 minute drive, known as one of the best viewpoint over the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri ranges. From here you may choose an optional activity like paragliding, gliding for 20-30 minutes over the valley with Fewa Lake below you. Back at the resort by early afternoon, the rest of the day is all about pure wellness mode with a couples’ spa treatment which includes traditional Himalayan massages and aromatherapy to ease away any travel fatigue. Later you’ll have a private yoga and meditation session overlooking the lake and mountains, a nice way to slow down and reconnect. As the sun sets, you are free to relax and have dinner at the resort or take one last walk by the lake before leaving Pokhara. This day is all about fleshing out the adventure and relaxation aspect of your Himalayan luxury honeymoon package, giving you a full range of experiences before heading toward the final leg of the trip.

Highlights of the Day:

  • Views from Sarangkot at Sunrise or in the daytime

  • Optional Paragliding in Pokhara Valley

  • Couples' spa treatment with Himalayan massage and aromatherapy

  • Private yoga and meditation session by the lake

Today you will check out from your Pokhara resort and start the overland journey to Nagarkot, one of the best sunset viewpoints near the Kathmandu Valley. The drive is about 200 km long, taking about 6 to 7 hours, with changing scenery as you make your way from the lake city back to the hills around Kathmandu. You get a chance to stretch your legs on a stop along the way, grab lunch and enjoy the countryside before continuing on. By late afternoon you will arrive in Nagarkot and check into your resort, located at an altitude of approximately 2,175 meters. As evening descends, take a short walk from the resort to a local viewpoint and watch the sunset color the eastern Himalayan range, with Everest visible on a clear day. This scenic stop gives you a peaceful mountain top close to your Nepal honeymoon package and gives you a different perspective of the Himalayas before heading back into the city.

Highlights of the Day:

  • Pokhara to Nagarkot Scenic Overland Drive

  • Reach a hilltop resort with panoramic mountain views

  • Evening sunset over the eastern Himalayan range

  • On a clear day, Mount Everest is in the distance

The day begins early with a short walk to a viewpoint only a few hundred meters from the resort to see the sunrise over the Himalayan range. The first light hitting peaks such as Everest, Langtang and Annapurna from Nagarkot is a moment photos never do justice to, so it’s worth the early wake-up call. After breakfast drive down to Bhaktapur, one of Nepal’s best preserved medieval cities, about 15-20 kilometers, about 30-40 minutes. Here, your guide will take you around Bhaktapur Durbar Square, a UNESCO-heritage site, with centuries-old intricately carved temples, palaces and courtyards. You’ll also get to see local artisans at work, from pottery makers in Pottery Square to traditional wood carvers, giving you a real feel for living heritage rather than just old buildings. Lunch will be taken at a local restaurant serving authentic Newari cuisine, one of Nepal’s most unique culinary traditions. This day merges the natural beauty of the mountains with the deep cultural history to give a meaningful end to the mountain and heritage side of your Himalayan luxury honeymoon package.

Highlights of the Day:

  • Sunrise over the Himalayan range from Nagarkot.

  • Walking tour of Bhaktapur Durbar Square

  • Explore Pottery Square and local artisans’ workshops

  • Enjoy a genuine Newari lunch in Bhaktapur

Today your journey ends. Following a final leisurely breakfast, you will be transferred from Nagarkot to Kathmandu airport, some 32 kms away and taking around 1.5 to 2 hours. Before you go we’ll send you on your way with a little parting gift to remember your trip by. As your flight leaves the ground, you’ll take away more than souvenirs; you’ll bring back memories of tiger tracking in Bardiya, tranquil mornings beside Rara Lake, and sunsets over the Himalayas that made this Himalayan luxury honeymoon package unforgettable.

Important trip information

The best time for this Himalayan luxury honeymoon package is in the fall, September to November or in the spring, March to May. The clear skies and cool mountain air in fall make it a wonderful season to observe wildlife in Bardiya and enjoy tranquil, mirror-smooth views at Rara Lake. Spring is equally rewarding with mild weather and rhododendrons blooming all over the hills around Pokhara and Nagarkot. Both seasons provide the visibility you want for that picture-perfect Himalayan flight and the comfort you require for outdoor activities like the jungle canoe ride and lake cruises. Monsoon rains arrive with the summer and can impact flights and visibility. The winter gets cold in higher areas like Rara Lake. The best time for a lovely and really romantic luxury honeymoon in Nepal is still the autumn and spring seasons.

Every night of this trip is spent in comfort. You'll stay in 5-star luxury properties for 13 nights, each one chosen for its setting as much as its service. In Bardiya, that means a peaceful jungle lodge close to the wild. At Rara Lake, it's a remote alpine retreat with views most travelers never get to see. Pokhara suites face Fewa Lake, ideal for balmy evenings on your own balcony. And in Nagarkot, you’ll wake up to sweeping views of the mountains right outside your window. Luxury amenities and large suites or villas for couples are available at each property, so there’s always room to relax after a busy day of adventure. A real luxury honeymoon in Nepal is defined by not only the gorgeous scenery but also a place to rest that feels just as special as the experiences that surround it.

Food is also part of the romance of this trip. You kick off your day with a hearty breakfast at your resort to ease into the day’s adventure. During the 14 days you will have 11 lunches, some of which will be simple picnics in lovely outdoor locations such as by Rara Lake or after a morning safari in Bardiya. Evenings are reserved for something even more special: 13 romantic dinners with authentic Nepali cuisine as well as international favorites. Some meals are in unique settings, making dinner an experience, not just a meal. As part of your luxury honeymoon Nepal experience, you will also get to join a hands-on Nepali cooking class, learning local recipes together. Each meal on this trip is designed to feel unhurried and thoughtful, from a quiet breakfast with mountain views to a candlelit dinner after a day spent exploring Fewa Lake, giving you one more reason to relax and enjoy each other's company.

A few permits are required along with your standard travel documents, as traveling through Bardiya and Rara Lake involves visiting protected national park areas. The good news is that the park entry permits are already in your Himalayan luxury honeymoon package so a lot of the paper work is already done. What you and your partner will need to do before you go is as follows.

  • Nepal tourist visa: Most nationalities can get a visa on arrival at Tribhuvan International Airport or through the online e-visa system.

  • Passport: Minimum 6 months validity from date of entry

  • Entry permit to Bardiya National Park: The permit is included in your package to enter the reserve.

  • Rara National Park entry permit: This permit is necessary for entering Rara Lake and is included as part of your package.

  • Photos: Passport Size A few extra copies are useful for processing permits and visas.

  • Travel and medical insurance: Not included, but advisable before you go

This honeymoon package is made for comfort, so you won’t be doing any serious high-altitude trekking. That said, Rara Lake is at almost 3,000 meters, so a few simple precautions will help you feel your best throughout the trip. Our guides are trained to help you along at each stop, but a bit of prep goes a long way.

  • Altitude: Rara Lake is at an altitude of around 2,990 meters. Mild symptoms such as headache or fatigue are common, so take it slow and rest when needed.

  • Hydration: Lots of water, especially on days with flights or altitude changes

  • Travel insurance: Recommended for medical emergencies, evacuation and trip changes

  • Vaccinations – Consult your doctor about routine and travel vaccinations before you leave.

  • Physical fitness: There is no technical trekking involved but you should wear shoes that are kind to your feet for park safaris and nature walks.

  • Guides carry a basic first aid kit, and clinics and hospitals are found in nearby towns if you need medical assistance.

  • Bardiya is a warm plain, and Rara Lake is cooler alpine air. Temperatures change quickly so pack layered clothing.

  • Rara Lake and Nagarkot are some of the best photo opportunities in Nepal so be sure to bring a good camera or phone with extra storage.

  • If you can, book your domestic flights early in the day—mountain weather can cause afternoon delays.

  • Bring small change for the local markets and personal purchases outside the package.

  • Carry a small day bag apart from your main luggage for safaris and nature walks.

  • Trust your guides’ local knowledge, especially in Bardiya National Park when it comes to safety around wildlife.

  • Take time to relax at each resort, rather than rushing from activity to activity.

  • Before you go, check that your travel insurance covers remote areas like Rara Lake.

  • Carry a power bank to keep devices charged, as electricity hours are limited in some remote lodges.

  • Nagarkot can be cold at night and early morning to see the sunrise so you may want to bring a light jacket.
